SpamSnake 10.10

[gachnar]

disabled postfix.
set debug mode in /opt/MailScanner/etc/MailScanner.conf

ran command: check_mailscanner

will post results when I get them.

UPDATE:

http://pastebin.com/RqvxQ45c

I let the command sit for 10 minutes at the last line before I stopped it.

UPDATE 2:

The VM has 512MB of RAM. That should be more than enough unless I am processing a high amount of mail flow.

UPDATE 3:

Similar to another forum I can't quite remember which one. I also don't show an active MTA in baruwa. It shows me having no processes.

Run it with postfix enabled, or it won't process mails.

[gachnar]

ran the command with postfix enabled and it made it past there once, but I wasn't able to get that text saved. when I retried it again, it still hangs at the message: "Building a message batch to scan..."

checked the mail.log and couldn't find the relevant section I was talking about. Any other suggestions?

Do you by chance have amavisd-new installed? Check to make sure your clamd config is correct with the proper user. This is what my clamd.conf looks like:

Double check to make sure it looks like mine.

[gachnar]

Checked mine against yours and had to make the following changes to my clamd.conf. I commented out the following two lines. My freshclam.conf was the same as what you had posted.

#OLE2BlockMacros false
#StreamMaxLength 25M
StreamMaxLength 0

I do not have amavisd-new installed.

This really looks like a problem for the mailscanner list. I have never actually had that problem with any of my setups.

Give the mailscanner list (http://lists.mailscanner.info/mailma...fo/mailscanner) a try, maybe someone knows what's happening on your system.

Just out of curiousity, try increasing the ram, I read somewhere about another user who had 512Mb ram and was having the same issues. He eventually increased his ram to around 768Mb and the problem went away.

[gachnar]

I'll try upping the memory like you said. I'll also start from the beginning again.. I really really want this to work. When I can get his working, I actually plan on putting my own site up and getting a whole setup rolling. I've already got the mail server running ubuntu using citadel as my email server. It's authenticating to a server 2k3. Just giving some details on my particular setup.

EDIT:

I do have one question that kinda kept me confused. What should I put for my ORG-NAME and LONG-ORG-NAME. Also in the postfix conf file myorigin and myhostname.tld

Say if my company was Widget Co. and my site was widgetco.cc with my mail server being hosted at mail.widgetco.cc.

Third question in /opt/MailScanner/etc/spam.assassin.prefs.conf
for the bayes section would my headers be x-widgetco-cc?

Any Help?

[Rocky]

Hey,

orgname is usually the abbreviation of your company's name while longorgname would be the full name.

myorigin would be widgetco.cc and myhostname would be mail.widgetco.c.

If you used widgetco.cc as myorigin, then you would place that in spam.assassin.prefs.conf eg. x-widgetco-cc.
