KAM Ruleset - Spamassassin issues

**fulltilt** · May 25th 2022

I have added the KAM ruleset channel in spamassassin, the files were installed under:

/var/lib/spamassassin/3.004002/kam_sa-channels_mcgrail_com

Instructions for Usage:

https://mcgrail.com/template/kam.cf_channel

Is anyone familiar with it on Debian?

Do I have to add extra scores into /etc/spamassassin/local.cf or an extra kam.cf in this folder if the KAM.cf is available in /var/lib/spamassassin/3.004002/kam_sa-channels_mcgrail_com?

I've been getting following info every morning:

o.k. I have removed all the KAM stuff from /var/lib/spamassassin/3.004002/

and tried this way:

Code

nano /backup/sapmass-kam.sh
#!/bin/bash
BASE_URL="https://www.mcgrail.com/downloads"
LOGFILE=/var/log/kamUpdate.log
touch ${LOGFILE}
echo "Fetching base rule pack..." >> ${LOGFILE}
wget -O /etc/mail/spamassassin/KAM.cf ${BASE_URL}/KAM.cf 1>>${LOGFILE} 2>&1
echo "Fetching deadweight rule pack..." >> ${LOGFILE}
wget -O /etc/mail/spamassassin/KAM_deadweight.cf ${BASE_URL}/KAM_deadweight.cf 1>>${LOGFILE} 2>&1
echo "Fetching heavyweight rule pack..." >> ${LOGFILE}
wget -O /etc/mail/spamassassin/KAM_heavyweight.cf ${BASE_URL}/KAM_heavyweight.cf 1>>${LOGFILE} 2>&1
echo "Fetching nonKAM rule pack..." >> ${LOGFILE}
wget -O /etc/mail/spamassassin/nonKAMrules.cf ${BASE_URL}/nonKAMrules.cf 1>>${LOGFILE} 2>&1
systemctl restart spamassassin
systemctl status spamassassin 1>>${LOGFILE} 2>&1
chmod +x /backup/sapmass-kam.sh
/backup/sapmass-kam.sh
sa-update
sa-compile
chown -hR debian-spamd:debian-spamd /var/lib/spamassassin/

result of spamassassin --lint is good, manual spamass update cron runs without errors, let's see how it looks tomorrow
