NAME

       PublicInbox::SaPlugin::ListMirror - SpamAssassin plugin for mailing list mirrors

SYNOPSIS

         loadplugin PublicInbox::SaPlugin::ListMirror

       Declare some mailing lists based on the expected List-Id value, expected servers, and mailing list
       address:

         list_mirror List-Id <foo.example.com> *.example.com foo@example.com
         list_mirror List-Id <bar.example.com> *.example.com bar@example.com

       Bump the score for messages which come from unexpected servers:

         header LIST_MIRROR_RECEIVED eval:check_list_mirror_received()
         describe LIST_MIRROR_RECEIVED Received does not match expected
         score LIST_MIRROR_RECEIVED 10

       Bump the score for messages which Bcc the list:

         header LIST_MIRROR_BCC eval:check_list_mirror_bcc()
         describe LIST_MIRROR_BCC Mailing list was Bcc-ed
         score LIST_MIRROR_BCC 5

DESCRIPTION

       This plugin contains common functions to provide accurate, ongoing mirrors of existing mailing lists.  It
       may be used independently of the rest of public-inbox, it does not depend on any public-inbox code, only
       SpamAssassin.

ADMINISTRATOR SETTINGS

       This plugin has no administrator settings, aside from the need to load it via "loadplugin" and enabling
       user rules "allow_user_rules 1"

USER SETTINGS

       list_mirror HEADER HEADER_VALUE HOSTNAME_GLOB [LIST_ADDRESS]
           Declare   a   list  based  on  an  expected  "HEADER"  matching  "HEADER_NAME"  exactly  coming  from
           "HOSTNAME_GLOB".  "LIST_ADDRESS" is optional, but may specify the address of the mailing  list  being
           mirrored.

           "List-Id" or "X-Mailing-List" are common values of "HEADER"

           An example of "HEADER_VALUE" is "<foo.example.org>" if "HEADER" is "List-Id".

           "HOSTNAME_GLOB" may be a wildcard match for machines where mail can come from or an exact match.

           "LIST_ADDRESS" is only required if using the "check_list_mirror_bcc" eval rule

           "list_mirror" may be specified multiple times.

EVAL FUNCTIONS

       header LIST_MIRROR_RECEIVED eval:check_list_mirror_received()
           The   "check_list_mirror_received"   function   implements   "Received:"  header  checking  based  on
           "list_mirror" configuration values.

           This rule can be used to score and prevent messages from being injected  directly  into  your  mirror
           without going through the expected mailing list servers:

             ifplugin PublicInbox::SaPlugin::ListMirror
               header LIST_MIRROR_RECEIVED eval:check_list_mirror_received()
               describe LIST_MIRROR_RECEIVED Received does not match expected
             endif

       header LIST_MIRROR_BCC eval:check_list_mirror_bcc()
           The  "check_list_mirror_bcc"  function checks for Bcc to mailing lists declared with a "LIST_ADDRESS"
           via "list_mirror"

           Spammers will often Bcc mailing lists; while it's uncommon and strange for valid messages to be  Bcc-
           ed to any public mailing list.  This rule allows users to assign a score to Bcc-ed messages

             ifplugin PublicInbox::SaPlugin::ListMirror
               header LIST_MIRROR_BCC eval:check_list_mirror_bcc()
               describe LIST_MIRROR_BCC Mailing list was Bcc-ed
             endif
