Name

msys.cloudmark.analyze — Analyze a message using Cloudmark

Synopsis

require('msys.cloudmark')

msys.cloudmark.analyze(hdr, msg, vctx)

hdr: string
msg: userdata, ec_message type (optional)
vctx: userdata, validate_context type (optional)

Description

This function analyzes the input string hdr and returns a table of the following key/value pairs:

  • score – Authority score for the message, a number between 0 and 100. The higher the number, the more certain the engine is that the mail is spam.

  • is_spam – If the cloudmark module MinimumScore option is set, this flag is set for messages whose score exceeds MinimumScore, indicating the engine has determined the message is spam. No action is directly taken on the message; that is left to the user to do using a policy script.

  • category – Category assigned to the message by the Cloudmark Authority

  • category-desc – Description of the category

  • sub-category – Sub-category assigned to the message by the Cloudmark Authority

  • sub-category-desc – Description of sub-category

  • rescan – rescan flag. If this flag is set to yes, the email would benefit from a rescan.

  • analysis – Cloudmark Authority analysis header

If msg or vctx is not provided, they will be inferred from the current context. The above name value pairs are also set within the validation context (VCTX_MESS with cmae- as prefix) except analysis.

For a listing of the available context variables, see “cloudmark – Cloudmark Authority® Content Scanning”. .

Warning

Do not use pcall with this function.
