SPAMD-SETUP(8) BSD System Manager's Manual SPAMD-SETUP(8)NAMEspamd-setup — parse and load file of spammer addresses
SYNOPSISspamd-setup [-bDdn]
DESCRIPTION
The spamd-setup utility sends blacklist data to spamd(8), as well as con‐
figuring mail rejection messages for blacklist entries.
When spamd-setup is run in blacklist only mode, it also sends blacklist
data to the pf(4) table ⟨spamd⟩. The ⟨spamd⟩ table must then be used in
conjunction with a pf(4) redirection rule to selectively redirect mail
connections to spamd(8).
The options are as follows:
-b Blacklisting only mode. Blacklist data is normally stored only
in spamd(8). With this flag, data is stored in both spamd(8) and
pf(4). Use this flag if spamd(8) is running with the -b flag
too.
-D Daemonize; run spamd-setup in the background.
-d Debug mode reports a few pieces of information.
-n Dry-run mode. No data is shipped.
-m ipfw
Use IPFW firewall instead of PF
-t table_number
IPFW table number. Use only with [-m ipfw] , default: 2
Lists are specified in the configuration file
/usr/local/etc/spamd/spamd.conf and are processed in the order specified
in the all tag. Output is concatenated and sent to a running spamd(8).
Addresses are sent along with the message spamd will give on mail rejec‐
tion when a matching client connects. The configuration port for
spamd(8) is found from services(5), by looking for the named service
spamd-cfg.
spamd-setup reads all configuration information from the spamd.conf(5)
file.

SEE ALSOpf.conf(5), services(5), spamd.conf(5), spamd(8)BUGS
Blacklists removed from /usr/local/etc/spamd/spamd.conf are not automati‐
cally removed from the running spamd(8). If an entry is removed from
/usr/local/etc/spamd/spamd.conf that is currently in use, it is necessary
to restart spamd(8). This applies only to blacklists that are removed
entirely, not those that are simply modified.
