How to uninstall Spamassassin

There is no trick here Sorry I missed you are on centos 8 yum remove spamassassin then remove smtp inet n - n - - smtpd -o content_filter=spamassassin from /etc/postfix/master.cf Remove the following code which is at the end of the file: spamassassin unix - n n - - pipe flags=R user=spamd argv=/usr/bin/spamc -e /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -f ${sender} ${recipient} Also delete these lines Any way to disable spamassasin? - #2 by usmannasir1 Finally, restart Postfix: service postfix restart

Run the commands line by line for centos/almalinux/ubuntu

vi /etc/postfix/master.cf || nano /etc/postfix/master.cf

remove this line

smtp inet n - n - - smtpd -o content_filter=spamassassin

and replace it with

# add below line 
smtp inet  n -  n  - - smtpd

Remove the following code which is at the end of the file /etc/postfix/master.cf:

spamassassin unix - n n - - pipe flags=R user=spamd argv=/usr/bin/spamc -e /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -f ${sender} ${recipient}

Also serach for these lines in /etc/postfix/main.cf and delete them

smtpd_milters = inet:127.0.0.1:8891
non_smtpd_milters = $smtpd_milters
milter_default_action = accept

Finally, restart Postfix:

service postfix restart

Step 1 worked, but the guide in following step 1 just game me a compounding headache. I am new to Linux and don’t understand a anything in that post

[Xdigit]

I couldn’t find

smtpd_milters = inet:127.0.0.1:8891
non_smtpd_milters = $smtpd_milters
milter_default_action = accept

also, I don’t know how to save the file after removing

spamassassin unix - n n - - pipe flags=R user=spamd argv=/usr/bin/spamc -e /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -f ${sender} ${recipient}

If you are using nano just press CTRL+X on your keyboard you will be prompted to choose an action. Press Y to allow saving the changes

On vim just enter command mode and key in :wq instead of q! this will save your changes

[Xdigit]

thanks. How can i locate this code

smtpd_milters = inet:127.0.0.1:8891
non_smtpd_milters = $smtpd_milters
milter_default_action = accept

[josephgodwinke]

Does this code exist in /etc/postfix/master.cf ?

Which os does your server run on ?

[Xdigit]

yes it exits. Ubuntu22.04

[josephgodwinke]
