Rspamd is used for AV handling, DKIM signing and SPAM handling. It's a powerful and fast filter system. For a more in-depth documentation on Rspamd please visit its own documentation.
Learn Spam & Ham
Rspamd learns mail as spam or ham when you move a message in or out of the junk folder to any mailbox besides trash. This is achieved by using the Dovecot plugin "antispam" and a simple parser script.
Rspamd also auto-learns mail when a high or low score is detected (see https://rspamd.com/doc/configuration/statistic.html#autolearning)
The bayes statistics are written to Redis as keys BAYES_HAM
and BAYES_SPAM
.
You can also use Rspamd's web UI to learn ham and / or spam or to adjust certain settings of Rspamd.
Learn Spam or Ham from existing directory
You can use a one-liner to learn mail in plain-text (uncompressed) format:
# Ham
for file in /my/folder/cur/*; do docker exec -i $(docker-compose ps -q rspamd-mailcow) rspamc learn_ham < $file; done
# Spam
for file in /my/folder/.Junk/cur/*; do docker exec -i $(docker-compose ps -q rspamd-mailcow) rspamc learn_spam < $file; done
Consider attaching a local folder as new volume to rspamd-mailcow
in docker-compose.yml
and learn given files inside the container. This can be used as workaround to parse compressed data with zcat. Example:
for file in /data/old_mail/.Junk/cur/*; do rspamc learn_spam < zcat $file; done
Reset learned data (Bayes, Neural)
You need to delete keys in Redis to reset learned data, so create a copy of your Redis database now:
Backup database
# It is better to stop Redis before you copy the file.
cp /var/lib/docker/volumes/mailcowdockerized_redis-vol-1/_data/dump.rdb /root/
Reset Bayes data
docker-compose exec redis-mailcow sh -c 'redis-cli --scan --pattern BAYES_* | xargs redis-cli del'
docker-compose exec redis-mailcow sh -c 'redis-cli --scan --pattern RS* | xargs redis-cli del'
Reset Neural data
docker-compose exec redis-mailcow sh -c 'redis-cli --scan --pattern rn_* | xargs redis-cli del'
Reset Fuzzy data
# We need to enter the redis-cli first:
docker-compose exec redis-mailcow redis-cli
# In redis-cli:
127.0.0.1:6379> EVAL "for i, name in ipairs(redis.call('KEYS', ARGV[1])) do redis.call('DEL', name); end" 0 fuzzy*
Info
If redis-cli complains about...
(error) ERR wrong number of arguments for 'del' command
...the key pattern was not found and thus no data is available to delete - it is fine.
CLI tools
docker-compose exec rspamd-mailcow rspamc --help
docker-compose exec rspamd-mailcow rspamadm --help
Disable Greylisting
Only messages with a higher score will be considered to be greylisted (soft rejected). It is bad practice to disable greylisting.
You can disable greylisting server-wide by editing:
{mailcow-dir}/data/conf/rspamd/local.d/greylist.conf
Add the line:
enabled = false;
Save the file and restart "rspamd-mailcow": docker-compose restart rspamd-mailcow
Spam filter thresholds (global)
Each user is able to change their spam rating individually. To define a new server-wide limit, edit data/conf/rspamd/local.d/actions.conf
:
reject = 15;
add_header = 8;
greylist = 7;
Save the file and restart "rspamd-mailcow": docker-compose restart rspamd-mailcow
Existing settings of users will not be overwritten!
To reset custom defined thresholds, run:
source mailcow.conf
docker-compose exec mysql-mailcow mysql -umailcow -p$DBPASS mailcow -e "delete from filterconf where option = 'highspamlevel' or option = 'lowspamlevel';"
# or:
# docker-compose exec mysql-mailcow mysql -umailcow -p$DBPASS mailcow -e "delete from filterconf where option = 'highspamlevel' or option = 'lowspamlevel' and object = 'only-this-mailbox@example.org';"
Custom reject messages
The default spam reject message can be changed by adding a new file data/conf/rspamd/override.d/worker-proxy.custom.inc
with the following content:
reject_message = "My custom reject message";
Save the file and restart Rspamd: docker-compose restart rspamd-mailcow
.
While the above works for rejected mails with a high spam score, prefilter reject actions will ignore this setting. For these maps, the multimap module in Rspamd needs to be adjusted:
-
Find prefilet reject symbol for which you want change message, to do it run:
grep -R "SYMBOL_YOU_WANT_TO_ADJUST" /opt/mailcow-dockerized/data/conf/rspamd/
-
Add your custom message as new line:
GLOBAL_RCPT_BL {
type = "rcpt";
map = "${LOCAL_CONFDIR}/custom/global_rcpt_blacklist.map";
regexp = true;
prefilter = true;
action = "reject";
message = "Sending mail to this recipient is prohibited by postmaster@your.domain";
}
- Save the file and restart Rspamd:
docker-compose restart rspamd-mailcow
.
Whitelist specific ClamAV signatures
You may find that legitimate (clean) mail is being blocked by ClamAV (Rspamd will flag the mail with VIRUS_FOUND
). For instance, interactive PDF form attachments are blocked by default because the embedded Javascript code may be used for nefarious purposes. Confirm by looking at the clamd logs, e.g.:
docker-compose logs clamd-mailcow | grep "FOUND"
This line confirms that such was identified:
clamd-mailcow_1 | Sat Sep 28 07:43:24 2019 -> instream(local): PUA.Pdf.Trojan.EmbeddedJavaScript-1(e887d2ac324ce90750768b86b63d0749:363325) FOUND
To whitelist this particular signature (and enable sending this type of file attached), add it to the ClamAV signature whitelist file:
echo 'PUA.Pdf.Trojan.EmbeddedJavaScript-1' >> data/conf/clamav/whitelist.ign2
Then restart the clamd-mailcow service container in the mailcow UI or using docker-compose:
docker-compose restart clamd-mailcow
Cleanup cached ClamAV results in Redis:
# docker-compose exec redis-mailcow /bin/sh
/data # redis-cli KEYS rs_cl* | xargs redis-cli DEL
/data # exit
Discard instead of reject
If you want to silently drop a message, create or edit the file data/conf/rspamd/override.d/worker-proxy.custom.inc
and add the following content:
discard_on_reject = true;
Restart Rspamd:
docker-compose restart rspamd-mailcow
Wipe all ratelimit keys
If you don't want to use the UI and instead wipe all keys in the Redis database, you can use redis-cli for that task:
docker-compose exec redis-mailcow sh
# Unlink (available in Redis >=4.) will delete in the backgronud
redis-cli --scan --pattern RL* | xargs redis-cli unlink
Restart Rspamd:
docker-compose exec redis-mailcow sh
Trigger a resend of quarantine notifications
Should be used for debugging only!
docker-compose exec dovecot-mailcow bash
mysql -umailcow -p$DBPASS mailcow -e "update quarantine set notified = 0;"
redis-cli -h redis DEL Q_LAST_NOTIFIED
quarantine_notify.py
