assplog(8) ASSP assplog(8)NAMEassplog - ASSP log pretty-printer
SYNOPSISassplogDESCRIPTIONassplog uses tail -f to monitor the ASSP Anti-Spam SMTP Proxy log and
then displays logged messages using ANSI color sequences and reformat‐
ted to a consistent layout for easy reading.
assplog works best on terminal windows of around 120 columns or wider.
It also assumes a black background as whitelisted messages are dis‐
played colored white. If you normally use a white background, use
Ctrl-MiddleButton and select Enable Reverse Video.
The colors have the following meaning:
1. Messages that were delivered
White Sender was on whitelist (or was added to whitelist)
Green Message passed all checks and was delivered
2. Messages that were blocked
Cyan Message was delayed (sending MTA should retry later)
Blue Recipient unknown (failed flat list or LDAP check)
Magenta
Message failed any of the other checks
Red Message failed Bayesian spam check
3. Administrative messages
Yellow Admin change from web interface
Grey Messages about ASSP's operation, including messages to
assp{notspam,spam,white}@ address
BUGS
Note that assplog suppresses some of the message lines from the in
actual log (those that report penalty scoring and some socket level
information, for example). Unknown/new log messages are not colorized.
FOR A COMPLETE AND ACCURATE VIEW OF THE LOG, USE tail -f DIRECTLY ON
THE LOG FILE.
