Hi everyone,

I recently installed a mail server for my home usage... It works perfectly, I'm using: Postfix / Courier-imap+ssl / Maildrop / SpamAssassin. But, for 2 days i'm receiving dummy tons of mails I don't understand why it comes to my email address, whatever, SpamAssassin don't filter them. This is always the same type of mail, it's about MS security patchs and a Windows .exe executable file is included in the mails which is in fact a virus.

I want to filter them and I think I have just to add some lines in my /etc/maildroprc There is my config in the main.cf for Postfix in order to use maildrop:

mailbox_command = /usr/bin/maildrop -d "$USER" -f "$SENDER" "$EXTENSION"

I notice that the name of the sender is always the same (it begins with Microsoft....) but the mail address change every time. I want to extract the name of the sender from the From header. I tried to add this 2 types of config in my maildroprc without success:

if ( /^Sender: Microsoft*/ ) { to "$HOME/Maildir/.Spam" }

and:

if ( /^From: Microsoft*/ ) { to "$HOME/Maildir/.Spam" }

Any idea ?
