[AMaViS-user] Compress quarantined spam letters

Hello.

When i was using amavisd-2.3 it was compressing spam and virus
quarantine messages with gzip(1), but 2.5 does not do this even when i
explicitly set gzip='/usr/bin/gzip'. How can i enable compression for
quarantined messages?

P.S. Are there any effort to prapare man pages for amavisd that will
describe amavisd-agent stats and amavisd.conf knobs?

The $gzip='/usr/bin/gzip' has nothing to do with compression a quarantine,
in only controls what program can be used for decoding mail parts.

Whether a quarantine file is compressed or not depends on the
setting of a %quarantine_method_by_ccat, e.g.:
$spam_quarantine_method = 'local:spam/%m.gz'; # compressed
$spam_quarantine_method = 'local:spam/%m'; # uncompressed

That is, if the file name template ends with '.gz' the file
will be compressed, otherwise not.

Not really...

Some of the more-recently introduced counters are listed
and briefly described in release notes. Some of the rest are
pretty much self-explanatory, and for the rest check the
source or ask.
