Spamtest and Virustest Extensions
Relevant Specifications
=======================
RFC5235 - doc/rfc/spamvirustest.rfc5235.txt
Description
===========
Using the spamtest and virustest extensions (RFC 5235), the Sieve language
provides a uniform and standardized command interface for evaluating spam and
virus tests performed on the message. Users no longer need to know what headers
need to be checked and how the scanner's verdict is represented in the header
field value. They only need to know how to use the spamtest (spamtestplus) and
virustest extensions. This also gives GUI-based Sieve editors the means to
provide a portable and easy to install interface for spam and virus filter
configuration. The burden of specifying which headers need to be checked and how
the scanner output is represented falls onto the Sieve administrator.
Configuration
=============
The spamtest, spamtestplus and virustest extensions are not enabled by default
and thus need to be enabled explicitly using the sieve_extensions setting.
The following settings need to be configured for using the spamtest and
spamtestplus extensions. The virustest extension has identical configuration
settings, but with a `sieve_virustest_' prefix instead of a `sieve_spamtest_'
prefix:
sieve_spamtest_status_type = "score" / "strlen" / "text"
This specifies the type of status result that the spam/virus scanner produces.
This can either be a numeric score ("score"), a string of identical characters
("strlen"), e.g. '*******', or a textual description, e.g. `Spam'
or `Not Spam'.
sieve_spamtest_status_header = <header-field> [ ":" <regexp> ]
This specifies the header field that contains the result information of the
spam scanner and it may express the syntax of the content of the header. If no
matching header is found in the message, the spamtest command will match
against "0".
This is a structured setting. The first part specifies the header field name.
Optionally, an extended POSIX regular expression follows the header field
name, separated by a colon. Any whitespace directly following the colon is not
part of the regular expression. If the regular expression is omitted, any
header content is accepted and the full header value is used. When a regular
expression is used, it must specify one match value (inside brackets) that
yields the desired spam scanner result. If the header does not match the
regular expression or if no value match is found, the spamtest will match
against "0".
sieve_spamtest_max_value =
This statically specifies the maximum value a numeric spam score can have.
sieve_spamtest_max_header = <header-field> [ ":" <regexp> ]
Some spam scanners include the maximum score value in one of their status
headers. Using this setting, this maximum can be extracted from the message
itself instead of specifying the maximum manually using the setting
`sieve_spamtest_max_value' explained above. The syntax is identical to the
`sieve_spamtext_status_header' setting.
sieve_spamtest_text_valueX =
When the `sieve_spamtest_status_type' setting is set to "text", these settings
specify that the spamtest command will match against "X" when the specified
string is equal to the text (extracted) from the status header. For spamtest,
values of X between 0 and 10 are recognized, while virustest only uses values
between 0 and 5.
Examples
========
This section shows several configuration examples. Each example shows a specimen
of valid virus/spam test headers that the given configuration will work on.
Example 1
---------
Spam header: `X-Spam-Score: No, score=-3.2'
plugin {
sieve_extensions = +spamtest +spamtestplus
sieve_spamtest_status_type = score
sieve_spamtest_status_header = \
X-Spam-Score: [[:alnum:]]+, score=(-?[[:digit:]]+\.[[:digit:]])
sieve_spamtest_max_value = 5.0
}
Example 2
---------
Spam header: `X-Spam-Status: Yes'
plugin {
sieve_extensions = +spamtest +spamtestplus
sieve_spamtest_status_type = text
sieve_spamtest_status_header = X-Spam-Status
sieve_spamtest_text_value1 = No
sieve_spamtest_text_value10 = Yes
}
Example 3
---------
Spam header: `X-Spam-Score: sssssss'
plugin {
sieve_extensions = +spamtest +spamtestplus
sieve_spamtest_status_header = X-Spam-Score
sieve_spamtest_status_type = strlen
sieve_spamtest_max_value = 5
}
Example 4
---------
Spam header: `X-Spam-Score: status=3.2 required=5.0'
Virus header: `X-Virus-Scan: Found to be clean.'
plugin {
sieve_extensions = +spamtest +spamtestplus +virustest
sieve_spamtest_status_type = score
sieve_spamtest_status_header = \
X-Spam-Score: score=(-?[[:digit:]]+\.[[:digit:]]).*
sieve_spamtest_max_header = \
X-Spam-Score: score=-?[[:digit:]]+\.[[:digit:]] required=([[:digit:]]+\.[[:digit:]])
sieve_virustest_status_type = text
sieve_virustest_status_header = X-Virus-Scan: Found to be (.+)\.
sieve_virustest_text_value1 = clean
sieve_virustest_text_value5 = infected
}
