Add a rewrite rule in the imta.cnf file that sends messages to a backend message store host. Example:
msg_store1.siroe.com $U@msg_store1.siroe.com
Add a channel corresponding to that rewrite rule with the destinationspamfilterXoptin keyword. Example:
tcp_msg_store1 smtp subdirs 20 backoff “pt5m” “pt10” “pt30” “pt1h” \ “pt2h” “pt4h” maxjobs 1 pool IMS_POOL fileinto $U+$S@$D \ destinationspamfilter 1optin spam,virus msg_store1.siroe.com
Example 2. Filter for spam all incoming mail passing through your MTA (Typically, all incoming messages pass through the tcp_local channel):
tcp_local smtp mx single_sys remotehost inner switchchannel \ identnonelimited subdirs 20 maxjobs 7 pool SMTP_POOL \ maytlsserver maysaslserver saslswitchchannel tcp_auth \ sourcespamfilter1optin spam tcp-daemon
Example 3. Filter all outgoing mail to the Internet passing through your MTA. (Typically, all messages going out to the Internet pass through the tcp_local channel.)
tcp_local smtp mx single_sys remotehost inner switchchannel \ identnonelimited subdirs 20 maxjobs 7 pool SMTP_POOL \ maytlsserver maysaslserver saslswitchchannel tcp_auth \ destinationspamfilter1optin spam tcp-daemon
Example 4. Filter all incoming and outgoing mail passing through your MTA:
tcp_local smtp mx single_sys remotehost inner switchchannel \ identnonelimited subdirs 20 maxjobs 7 pool SMTP_POOL \ maytlsserver maysaslserver saslswitchchannel tcp_auth \ sourcespamfilter1optin spam destinationspamfilter1optin spam tcp-daemon
Example 5. Filter all mail destined to the local message store in a two-tiered system without using user optin:
ims-ms smtp mx single_sys remotehost inner switchchannel \ identnonelimited subdirs 20 maxjobs 7 pool SMTP_POOL \ maytlsserver maysaslserver saslswitchchannel tcp_auth \ destinationspamfilter1optin spam tcp-daemon
Example 6. Filter all incoming and outgoing mail for spam and viruses (this presumes that your software filters both spam and viruses):
tcp_local smtp mx single_sys remotehost inner switchchannel \ identnonelimited subdirs 20 maxjobs 7 pool SMTP_POOL \ maytlsserver maysaslserver saslswitchchannel tcp_auth \ destinationspamfilter1optin spam,virus sourcespamfilter1optin \ spam,virus tcp-daemon
