Its a botch whilst I wait for the hosting company to sort something more appropriate at the server end, but it does what I needed for the time being.Spammers, or malicious senders, use a variety of techniques to send unwanted email into your organization.
If anything it is working rather too well and generating a few false positives too, though hopefully I can train that out in time. It is detecting spam, marking it read, and moving it into the ‘junk’ folder, which is all I was trying to do. I’m sure what I was trying to do was a lot more simple that what you thought I was asking!Īnyway, after a bit more fiddling/swearing it is now working. Thunderbird running quietly on a headless Pi, that work can be automated so I’m not annoyed by it when using my email from the iPad (which annoyingly lacks similar local spam filtering).
As such having another additional local client open that supports spam-filters etc and can detect and move spam in the inbox to the junk folder etc, e.g. what you see is the current state of what is on the server, if you delete on a client you delete on the server, obviously you know this. That bit works fine!Ĭlick to expand.Again I don’t think I explained what I was trying to do clearly enough as it has nothing to do with server rules. PS The VNC bit is just so I can set the Pi up from the iPad and don’t need it connected to a keyboard, mouse etc. There are just a lot of other problems that are higher priority at present, the migration was not especially smooth and the site was crashing under load earlier in the week etc. The idea wasn’t entirely crazy as a stop-gap, though the proper solution has to come from the hosting company. I’ve got as far as it marking spam read, it just isn’t deleting it yet. That way I’d not be irritated by mounds of it in my inbox whenever I check my mail from my iPad.

As a temporary measure I was just thinking that, given my iPad has no local spam-filtering capabilities, I could install Thunderbird on a Pi I have knocking around and leave that running 24/7 just filtering spam via an open connection to my IMAP server. It doesn’t have a (working) spam filter so I am getting about 300 spam emails a day which is pissing me off like you would not believe. The problem is the pfm server email system is at this point shit. I’ll try and explain one more time what I was thinking.

The Thunderbird user interface is so far beyond shit it will likely take me an age to figure out how to get it to just delete! Nothing is where one expects it to be and I’m sure I’ve already told the bloody thing in at least one place.īecause I don’t want to leave my ageing MacBook on 24/7! I’d far prefer to risk a 40 quid Pi that is effectively disposable. PS I’ve got as far as getting the Pi to mark spam as read, but it’s still staying in the inbox rather than moving or deleting it.

Annoyingly iOS has virtually no ability to spam filter, I guess as the assumption is you’ll be using either Apple’s own email service or a professional one with complex filtering (gmail etc).

I run pfm from my iPad or iPhone, the MacBook Pro is hardly ever used.

I was merely thinking as a temporary stop-gap for the account that is a full IMAP account rather than a simple redirect whilst I wait for the hosting company to fix it whether I could use an always-on Pi running Thunderbird to do some local filtering so I’m not wasting so much time manually deleting stuff via the iPad that I use all the time. The IMAP account is on the pfm server, my issue is the server spam-filtering is just shit compared to my Apple email account (where most of the pfm email addresses redirect via the pfm server).
Anyone got any better ideas as to how to achieve it? Are there any dedicated Pi anti-spam builds? I really don’t have the interest or time to do anything complex or fiddly here, I’m just looking for a quick easy solution.ĭon’t get me wrong, I am absolutely not looking to set up a home email server! Not a hope in hell! Sorry if the thread gave that impression. It occurred to me that my little used Raspberry Pi might have a use as an always-on headless local filter even if I just installed something like Thunderbird and used its spam filter, setup rules etc on that. As such the stuff that isn’t caught on the (apparently quite basic) server setup just ends up in my inbox. Part of the problem is I do 99% of my internet stuff on an iPad Pro which, amazing device that it is, currently lacks any ability to set rules/macros for the mail client, which also lacks any local spam filter. The final thing I’m missing is a good spam filter for the main account, which gets maybe 300 spam emails a day and irritates the shit out of me as I miss real stuff due to so much crap coming in. Since migrating pfm to the new server I had a lot of problems initially getting my admittedly complex email working, which it now is, at least to a degree.
