Blacklist how-to

Hi,

I have a number of entries in my white/black list. But for some entries, 
I still get mail in the quarantaine. What am I missing ?
I have *@qaiglobal.com in the blacklist, but still I get mail from them 
in the quarantaine. How can I prevent this ? I thought those mails would 
just be discarded, so I never see them, not in my mail-client but also 
not in Maia.

Thanks,

Koenraad Lelong.

Auto-confirm items older than a date

Hi all!


I would like to create a new cron job to auto-confirm all the suspected spam older than X days (a week, maybe)

and after, run process-quarantine.pl. Is there a way to do this with maia scripts... or should I build a

custom query and run it out of the box?


If 2) is enough marking the items with a C on maia_mail_recipients (before extracting mail_ids from maia_mail)

and after run process-quarantine.pl ?


Thanks all!


Antonio.

process-quarantine.pl issue

I am not sure if this is active anymore. I can't find any archive 
articles to indicate activity.  After making endless searches I am out 
of ideas, so I am hoping someone is reading this.

A month or so ago I replaced qmail with postfix/maia/dovecot (I had been 
running dovecot with qmail). I have freeBSD  8.2 AMD64 (64-bit) OS.
I used the freeBSD ports to install. Everything works correctly with a 
single exception: process-quarantine.pl won't work correctly.

Initially, when I ran it I got a "no forks" "no threads" error. I have 
perl 10 and forks is indeed installed. To troubleshoot, I commented out 
the "die" in the search for forks/threads and ran the script again. It 
appears to process spam. However it doesn't seem to terminate cleanly. 
When I ran it with cron, I got this via email.

exiting at /var/maiad/maia/scripts/process-quarantine.pl line 767.

This is the "die" in do_exit.

I am not sure it is really processing, though it appears to be. The big issue is that when I check my running
processes, the process-quarantine script is still running. The do_exit apparently isn't really
stopping the process.

I have checked with the freeBSD port maintainer and he hasn't observed this issue. He uses FreeBSD 8.2 32
bit. He has no idea what is happening.

Is the author of this script still around? Does anyone have an idea:
1. Why the script can't discover forks or threads?
2. Why the script won't terminate (gracefully or not)?

Thanks in advance,
Bob

Spam getting through Mailguard

Hello –

 

We have a client who’s constantly receiving spam.

 

The client’s Spam settings is set to mark an email as spam for anything that has a score of >=2.5.

 

As you can see via the provided link this particular client is receiving spam that is recording under 2.5 when it is clearly spam.

 

I would appreciate any recommendations on rectifying this situation.

Thank you,

message size limit per user basis

Hi maia guys,

Is there a way to apply message size limit per user basis in maia or amavisd.new ?


setting

message_size_limit = 10000000 in main.cf in postfix applies globally.

I Do NOT expect it. instead I need user level size limits.

Let's say.


Manager needs 20 MB mail size limit for incoming and outgoing.

secretary needs 10 MB mail size limit for incoming and outgoing.
The rest needs 5 MB mail size limit for incoming and outgoing. How to achieve the above tasks with maia MailGuard 1.0.2a or amavisd-new?

mime_decode-1 file utility failed

I seem to have trouble with the /usr/bin/file utility, and simple can 
not grasp why. This is a brand new installation, everything latest build.

I run maia/avavis-new.
The mail will go through but I end up with lots of attachments in the 
amavis folder.

I can not figure out where in the amavisd-new.pl script the issue is.

Anyone know what the problem is ?

process-quarantine.pl: Segementation fault

Hi all,
 
I am running Maia v1.0.3 (svn 1575) on Debian 6.0.4.  I have emails from cron when running the "process-quaratnine.pl --learn --report" job; it says "Segmentation fault".
 
I have run the job from the shell as the maia user and it still gives the Segementation fault (I figured it would, but felt it was worth trying).  There is no core dump.
 
I saw a similar post in the archives, but it was for FreeBSD and had something to do with the libc version.  It turned out to be a benign error as the script still ran successfully.  I am wondering if it may be the same thng here?  Perhaps a benign error?
 
I ran the script again through strace hoping there would be something obvious.  There are a number of " ENOENT (No such file or directory)" entires for various files, but I am not sure if that is normal.  I can post a link tot he strace output, if that would help?
 
Please advise.  Thanks! :-)
 
-Alan

Re: Server Problems and now database won't run reliably

Cool. I think I may be moving my hosting servers from Debian to CentOS. RHEL just seems like the Linux of the enterprise. I have been really happy with Debian & know there are many others who also are. But we have appliances that use CentOS. And then using Debian for our hosting infrastructure just increases the complexity for my techs who need to support it all.

Quarantin settings

I have just installed Maia Mailguard (svn 1585) and have it  
authenticating against our Exchange Server using LDAP.  So far my  
testing is working quite well, but I do have a couple of  
questions/clarifications:

   1.) Domain-level Quarantine: I added my organisation's domain, then  
went into its settings to adjust the tagging and quartine levels.  I  
set the following options:

   Detected spam should be: Labeled
   Add a prefix to the sujects of spam?: Yes
   Add X-Spam: Headers when Score is >=: -999
   Consider mail 'Spam' when Score is >=: 6
   Quarantine Spam when Score is>=: 999 (this was set automatically  
and is unchangeable, I am guessing due to me not quarantining)

Now, if I set "Detected Spam should be: Quarantined", then the  
"Quarantine Spam" setting always changes to the same value as the  
"Consider mail 'Spam' when" score, which makes sense.

My question: Is there a way to configure it so I can set detected spam  
to, say "6" and quarantine spam at at 15, so spam with scores between  
6.00 and 14.999 would get delivered (with the subject line tagged) and  
spam with scores 15.000 or higher get quarantined?  If so, where would  
I set that?

   2.) Per-user Spam Scores: I logged in as a regular user, which of  
course creates settings that override the domain-level settings.   
However, it does not appear to be possible for a user to set theor own  
spam-score/quarantine levels?  Seems to be hard-coded at 5 for  
detection and all suspected spams get quarantined?

I actually have no issue with *all* suspected spam (per-user) being  
quarantined, but would like for the user to be able to set their own  
score...?

That's it for now.  Overall I think I am happy; just these two little  
items so far :-)

Thanks, in advance, for your help.

Yes I was able to get the mail to flow without going through the content filter.  I sent that information to the list yesterday.  Just trying to decide now what distro to set this up on again.

Thanks for the follow up.

Have you got the issue resolved yet Andy? There is a way to tell postfix to push the queued messages through without running them through the content filter. I don't remember the commands off hand, but I've done it before. Let me know if you still need help.

We had some server problems earlier today and now the database won't run reliably. I'm beginning to think it will be easier to start over but I've got about 500 messages out there in the queue waiting to process. Can someone tell me how to get postfix to deliver these on without trying to run the messages through the scanner. Or is there anyone that would be willing to look at the mysql problems. This is running on Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy. We are willing to pay for support if there is someone willing to assist.
