Thanks Tom, your suggestion was right. It was a permissions issue.

Can I ask another newbie question?

I was wondering how to search the logs back more than a day.

Using the ASSP web interface, it seems to search the last 24 hours (even though I have it set to search in "all log files")

I see I can use Console to go to /var/log/assp and click on each days assp.log.X.gz file... But there as well, I'm not sure how to search through all of them.

Thanks!
John

Make sure the permissions are all set on the files to write.

Beginner ASSP v1.8.5.3 question on how ASSP works.

I figured out how to use the ASSP to whitelist an email address by sending an email to: add-to-whitelist@xxxxxxxxxx

And it adds it to the whitelist. Is there a way to view the ASSP whitelist besides the ASSP Web interface?


Anyway, my main question is... It looks like there is a feature where an ASSP admin (and maybe users too?) can use the interface to submit an email to be blacklisted by emailing: assp- black@xxxxxxxxxx

I gave it a try and got an email that says:

pcworld@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx: added to blackListedDomains addresses


But is ASSP supposed to actually add the email address or domain (pcworld@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) to the ASSP file located at: file:files/ blackdomains.txt ?

It doesn't seem to for me and I'm not sure if it is even supposed to.


And I have the same question on forwarding a spam email to: report-spam@xxxxxxxxxx

I can forward an spam to report-spam@xxxxxxxxxx and get a message back saying "Thank you for reporting."

But is there somewhere in ASSP I can see what ASSP did with the forwarded spam email and it's address? Did it add it to it's list of known spammer email addresses?
