Re: Whitelisting another query

I wonder could you go so far as to say just a .com domain in the whitelist.

SpamAss. 3.0.2 upgrade?

I downloaded and installed the latest tarball for install-SA-clamav which
includes SA 3.0.2.

I ran the install script but I get this :

Oh good, module Mail::SpamAssassin version 3.0.2 is already installed.

[root <at> gw install-Clam-SA]# spamassassin --version
SpamAssassin version 3.0.1

Guess this is not correct?

Cheers!

Re: Why does MailScanner not like my Football club?

You are going to have to give us a lot more information than that. There
should be an AttachmentWarning.txt attachment in the message. What does
that say?

Re: Whitelisting another query

Yes. A rule that say
From: *.com yes
will do the job.

Re: SpamAss. 3.0.2 upgrade?

I would say you have 2 copies of perl installed. One in /usr/bin/perl
and one in another directory which is earlier on your $PATH than
/usr/bin. You will get in *such* a mess if you have multiple copies of
Perl, particularly if your $PATH is set wrong.

Do

/usr/bin/perl -V
and
perl -V

and you will probably get different output.

Whitelisting not working for all messages

My whitelist file looks like this currently.  the TO: field one works
but the From: field one does not at all.

From:   * <at> domain.com      yes
To:     * <at> domain2.com    yes

Re: Whitelisting not working for all messages

You will probably find the real envelope sender address is different
from the From: header contents. Take a look in your maillog to find the
real addresses, or switch on the "X-Envelope-From" header (or whatever I
called it) in MailScanner.conf and take a look at the headers of a
message coming in.

My best guess would be that you need
    * <at> *.domain.com
as well as * <at> domain.com
but that is a guess.

blacklist does not work

hello,

think i´ve done right but the blacklist does not work for me ?!?

inside MailScanner.conf:
Is Definitely Spam =  %rules-dir%/spam.blacklist.rules

/etc/MailScanner/rules
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  518 Feb  1 11:42 spam.blacklist.rules
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 1106 Feb  1 10:22 spam.whitelist.rules

spam.blacklist.rules:
To:             spam <at> host.domain12345.de
From:           andreas <at> domain135.de

host.domain12345.de is the mailscanner host, the other is my personal mail.

nothing will be blocked and im sure the one setting in ms conf is enough, or
not ?

didnt found something in the archive, dont hit me if im to silly to search
;)

greetings
andy
