This was originally based on WBList Version 0.01B (see: http://www.hardrock.org/wblist/ )
It's been mostly rewritten and updated.
This is a web based interface to some amavisd-new things.
- Policy database - how mails to defined recipients are treated (spam threshold, AV checks etc)
- Quarantined emails - if a policy defines it, mail will be quarantined ... you can view and release them here
- Whitelist/Blacklist - some senders you do (or don't!) like....
So if you're running amavisd, this can help you -
- Create policy rules (who should receive spam/viruses etc, what scoring thresholds there are etc)
- Create whitelist or blacklist entries (i.e. allow anyone from: @google.com to email [email protected], or block [email protected] from emailing [email protected]).
- View and release quarantined emails ....
- Amavisd-new (e.g. v 2.10.1 ish) with appropriate config to use @lookup_sql_dsn
- PHP 7 or 8+ (should work with PHP 5.6+)
- PostgreSQL or MySQL backend (I've not tested MySQL, but it ought to work).
- Copy/Clone this stuff to your webserver, ideally set '/path/to/this/public/' as your DocumentRoot.
- Edit config.php or specify a $config in config.local.php
- Get composer ( https://getcomposer.org/ ) and run 'php composer.phar install' or similar.
- Make sure there's some restriction on who can access the code (e.g. Apache auth check)
Basically it works like this:
- You define a policy first. This defines how the mail will be recieved. Anything left blank or NULL will use the defaults in /etc/amavisd.conf.
- Once you have an acceptable policy, add a recipient that uses this policy. Each recipient will have a policy defined.
- Next add a sender (this is a person at a remote site).
- Add a wblist entry, basically relate your receiver to a sender and how that mail is handled. A score will add to the resultant score like the soft whitelist table in /etc/amavisd.conf. W will whitelist, B will blacklist and depending how you have your blacklist configured look at your maillogs for a "discard" line. I like discard lines in my mail logs.
- Implement scoring support as well as Whitelist/Blacklist/Neutral in the policy.
- Add script to view quarantined emails.
