where does MSFE store the data

Where does MSFE store the date for the Server Spam Whitelist and Server Spam Blacklist
Re: where does MSFE store the data
If you are referring to "Email Black/Whitelist Settings" in MSFE then:
/usr/mailscanner/etc/rules - spam.blacklist.rules and spam.whitelist.rules
/usr/mailscanner/etc/rules - spam.blacklist.rules and spam.whitelist.rules
Re: where does MSFE store the data
No more like the data that is contained within the textareas below those two blocks.
just above
Allowed Format: *@domain.com or name@domain.com or IP address, only one entry per line

Re: where does MSFE store the data
Sorry, was referring to the link that leads to that area of MSFE.
The data is contained in those rules files.

Re: where does MSFE store the data
I searched for any of the content in the text area and find it in none of the files you referred to.
I made a change to the black list and do not see that it updated any of the time stamps of the files either.

Re: where does MSFE store the data
And you did see the note in MSFE about changes being implemented every 10 minutes?
Re: where does MSFE store the data
yes that is why I asked, the last time stamp is from Nov 9th,
I made changes before today since then and several hours ago.
But then why would the ones from months ago not show in the files.
for example I have *@creditofferdirect.com I see in the text area under Server Spam Blacklist that has been there over a year now for sure. If I do a grep -r creditofferdirect * in the /usr/mailscanner/etc/rules folder or even in /usr/mailscanner neither method will find any match

Re: where does MSFE store the data
I'm not seeing that behavior. Doing a grep in the rules directory does match addresses in the black and whitelist rule sets.
Unless Sarah picks up on this thread and has other suggestions I would confirm that:
1. The MS configuration has the correct rules settings under "Spam Detection and Spam Lists".
2. You are running the most current versions of MS and MSFE - assume you are.
3. Restart MS and tail the maillog for errors on startup. I've seen permissions errors in the past due to cPanel anomalies.
4. Force a re-install of MS and MSFE in WHM.
HTH

Re: where does MSFE store the data
that worked, interesting the files did not show the data I thought as they do now that they would and now the changes work.
unfortunately this too may explain why there is so much spam all the time since just before this
http://blog.configserver.com/index.php?itemid=595
since then I've done the process over and over and still no help.
Maybe this will finally slow the spam down
thank you for your help.
I am trying to make a script (email pipe script) to allow me to send email to to parse the offending address and add to the spam.blacklist.rules file easier than going to whm

Re: where does MSFE store the data
Which worked exactly?
Would be interested to see your script once it's functioning.
