DESCRIPTION

See https://www.dcc-servers.net/dcc/ for more information about DCC.

Note that DCC is disabled by default in "v310.pre" because its use requires software that is not distributed with SpamAssassin and that has license restrictions for certain commercial uses. See the DCC license at https://www.dcc-servers.net/dcc/LICENSE for details.

Enable it by uncommenting the "loadplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::DCC" confdir/v310.pre or by adding this line to your local.pre. It might also be necessary to install a DCC package, port, rpm, or equivalent from your operating system distributor or a tarball from the primary DCC source at https://www.dcc-servers.net/dcc/#download See also https://www.dcc-servers.net/dcc/INSTALL.html

TAGS

  _DCCB_    DCC server ID in X-DCC-*-Metrics header field name
  _DCCR_    X-DCC-*-Metrics header field body
  _DCCREP_  DCC Reputation or percent bulk mail (0..100) from
              commercial DCC software

USER OPTIONS

use_dcc (0|1) (default: 1)

Whether to use DCC, if it is available.

use_dcc_rep (0|1) (default: 1)

Whether to use the commercial DCC Reputation feature, if it is available. Note that reputation data is free for all starting from DCC 2.x version, where it's automatically used.

dcc_body_max NUMBER

dcc_fuz1_max NUMBER

dcc_fuz2_max NUMBER

Sets how often a message's body/fuz1/fuz2 checksum must have been reported to the DCC server before SpamAssassin will consider the DCC check hit. 999999 is DCC's MANY count.

The default is 999999 for all these options.

dcc_rep_percent NUMBER

Only the commercial DCC software provides DCC Reputations (but starting from DCC 2.x version it is available for all). A DCC Reputation is the percentage of bulk mail received from the last untrusted relay in the path taken by a mail message as measured by all commercial DCC installations. See http://www.rhyolite.com/dcc/reputations.html You "must" whitelist your trusted relays or MX servers with MX or MXDCC lines in /var/dcc/whiteclnt as described in the main DCC man page to avoid seeing your own MX servers as sources of bulk mail. See https://www.dcc-servers.net/dcc/dcc-tree/dcc.html#White-and-Blacklists The default is 90.

ADMINISTRATOR OPTIONS

dcc_timeout n (default: 5)

How many seconds you wait for DCC to complete, before scanning continues without the DCC results. A numeric value is optionally suffixed by a time unit (s, m, h, d, w, indicating seconds (default), minutes, hours, days, weeks).

dcc_home STRING

This option tells SpamAssassin where to find the dcc homedir. If not specified, try to use the locally configured directory from the "cdcc homedir" command. Try /var/dcc if that command fails.

dcc_dccifd_path STRING

This option tells SpamAssassin where to find the dccifd socket instead of a local Unix socket named "dccifd" in the "dcc_home" directory. If a socket is specified or found, use it instead of "dccproc".

If specified, "dcc_dccifd_path" is the absolute path of local Unix socket or an INET socket specified as "[Host]:Port" or "Host:Port". Host can be an IPv4 or IPv6 address or a host name Port is a TCP port number. The brackets are required for an IPv6 address.

The default is "undef".

dcc_path STRING

Where to find the "dccproc" client program instead of relying on SpamAssassin to find it in the current PATH or "dcc_home/bin". This must often be set, because the current PATH is cleared by taint mode in the Perl interpreter,

If a "dccifd" socket is found in "dcc_home" or specified explicitly with "dcc_dccifd_path", use the dccifd(8) interface instead of "dccproc".

The default is "undef".

dcc_options options

Specify additional options to the dccproc(8) command. Only characters in the range [0-9A-Za-z ,._/-] are allowed for security reasons.

The default is "undef".

dccifd_options options

Specify additional options to send to the dccifd daemon with the ASCII protocol described on the dccifd(8) man page. Only characters in the range [0-9A-Za-z ,._/-] are allowed for security reasons.

The default is "undef".

dcc_learn_score n (default: undef)

Report messages with total scores this much larger than the SpamAssassin spam threshold to DCC as spam.
