spamassassin "filter attributes" do not exist.
Good day,
I use SJS MS 6.2 and SJS DS 5.2.4. I am introducing spamassassin as MS's spam-filtering partner.
To deploy spamassassin in a pilot scheme, I'd like to apply spam filtering to certain user entries in DS only. MS Admin Guide 819-2650 claims it can be done by adding "filter attributes" to the user entries which should receive spam filtering.
There is, however, no "SpamAssassin" attribute associated with the user entry in DS; neither can I find how to extend the LDAP 2 schema to obtain this attribute.
I was wondering whether anyone has solved this...
Cheers

Hi,
I assume you referred to the section "To Specify User-level Filtering" from the 2005Q4 messaging server admin guide.
If so, the SpamAssassin attribute needs to be created by yourself. Extending the schema can be achieved through the directory server console. Instructions on how to extend the schema to add this (or any) attribute can be found in the directory server manuals:

Shane.

Thank you Shane. Yesterday evening I tried this out and it worked, confirming your recommendation. I created the SpamAssassin attribute and made it an optional member of the iplanet-am-managed-person object class. Would you suggest some other class?
