TMDA

TMDA.net is an open source software application designed to significantly reduce the amount of spam (Internet junk-mail) you receive. TMDA strives to be more effective, yet less time-consuming than traditional spam filters.

tmda-cgi is a program for managing your TMDA account over the web.

dungog-tmda-cgi is the SME intergration rpm to help things run smoothly

yum install tmda tmda-cgi dungog-tmda-cgi [optional yum install smeserver-userpanel smeserver-mailsorting dungog-email dungog-cron]


Configuration

To enable TMDA

  1. enable and configure at /tmda
  2. make SME aware of the change here

To disable TMDA

  1. Tell SME we are no longer going to use TMDA, - once you have done that here SME has disabled tmda

[optional but recommended]

  1. disable at /tmda to release pending mail
  2. Tell SME again, to confirm current settings are restored


Review Users Config

An overview of Users configuration is provided with dungog-email

> tmda  : the sme setting is enabled and the user has enabled tmda at /tmda > tmda* : the sme setting is NOT enabled but the user has enabled tmda at /tmda > tmda- : the sme setting is enabled but the user never enabled tmda at /tmda > tmda! : the user has disabled tmda at /tmda but not the sme setting

  • tmda

tmda is correctly configured

  • tmda*

tmda will work but without vacation, forwarding or procmail,
until .qmail file is recreated, then mail does not get sent to tmda.

  • tmda-

tmda setting is ignored

  • tmda!

/tmda was enabled but now is not, its likely mail will be lost.
.qmail is sending mail to tmda, see the cron job below for a fix

Help

To Check users who may disable /tmda but not the SME setting enable the cron job *Fix incorrect TMDA settings* which is visible if you have dungog-cron

Admin can change the default domain for new tmda users

db dungog set tmdaDomain domain.net
expand-template /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/tmda-cgi/skel/install/.tmda/config

If you have smeserver-mailsorting enabled the daily *TMDA pending summary* will be deleted automatically if it is empty
