Jules has moved to doing a release every couple of months... at the moment he's at a conference AND doing his dayjob, hence his absence here.

For all your IT requirements visit: http://www.transtec.co.uk From MailScanner at ecs.soton.ac.uk Sun Sep 10 18:58:52 2006 From: MailScanner at ecs.soton.ac.uk (Julian Field) Date: Sun, 10 Sep 2006 19:58:52 +0100 Subject: BETA: Max SpamAssassin Size for sendmail and Postfix Message-ID: <4504606C.10003@ecs.soton.ac.uk> I have added the new logic to the Max SpamAssassin Size configuration option, with just about all the extra features everyone wanted in here. # SpamAssassin is not very fast when scanning huge messages, so messages # bigger than this value will be truncated to this length for SpamAssassin # testing. The original message will not be affected by this. This value # is a good compromise as very few spam messages are bigger than this. # # Now for the options: # 1) # 2) truncate # 3) continue # # 1) Put in a simple number. # This will be the simple cut-off point for messages that are larger than # this number. # 2) Put in a number followed by 'trackback'. # Once the size limit is reached, MailScanner reverses towards the start # of the message, until it hits a line that is blank. The message passed # to SpamAssassin is truncated there. This stops any part-images being # passed to SpamAssassin, and so avoids rules which trigger on this. # 3) Put in a number followed by 'continue' followed by another number. # Once the size limit is reached, MailScanner continues adding to the data # passed to SpamAssassin, until at most the 2nd number of bytes have been # added looking for a blank line. This tries to complete the image data # that has been started when the 1st number of bytes has been reached, # while imposing a limit on the amount that can be added (to avoid attacks). # # If all this confuses you, just leave it alone at "40k" as that is good. Max SpamAssassin Size = 40k I have only added the logic to the sendmail and Postfix versions so far, as I want to be sure it works before I give it out to everyone. It's on www.mailscanner.info as usual. *Please* can you test this out for me. If you think I have gone over the top, and just produced a system that no-one can work out how to use, then please do tell me and I will remove bits of it again. Personally I think it will only be used by 1% of users at most, which leads me to think I should remove the whole thing and go back to something much simpler again.

Please test it for me if you possibly can. The main additions over the past 2 months have been: - - Fine control of reporting for messages breaking size limits - - Upgraded to Kaspersky 5.5 - - Upgraded to Postfix 2.3 - - Sys::Syslog compatibility problems solved with 1.18 - - More detailed control over "Max SpamAssassin Size" and what happens when the truncation point is reached half way through an attachment - - Upgraded to tnef 1.4.3 to solve problems with UTF-encoded filenames. - - Upgraded to Archive::Zip 1.16 to solve problems building on 64-bit architectures. Please download as usual from www.mailscanner.info The full Change Log is: * New Features and Improvements * 1 Added a complete new set of configuration settings to report on messages and attachments that are outside the size limits set in MailScanner.conf. These are: Sender Size Report Stored Size Message Report Deleted Size Message Report Size Modify Subject Size Subject Text These are used in exactly the same way as the other sets of options that tag and modify the message for other reasons. 3 Improved report of "message too large" case. 3 Updated Catalan language files courtesy of Jordi Sanfeliu. 3 Increased default max SpamAssassin message size to catch more single-image spam messages. 3 Solved compatibility with Postfix 2.3. 3 Upgraded Sys::Syslog to 0.18 which fixes all the compatibility problems of 0.17 and 0.16. 3 Upgraded Kaspersky support to 5.5. 4 Added new features to "Max SpamAssassin Size" setting: --- behave as before trackback --- get n bytes then backtrack looking for the start of the attachment we are in the middle of. continue --- get n bytes then continue up to a maximum of m extra bytes looking for the end of the attachment we are in the middle of. 5 Upgraded to tnef version 1.4.3. 5 Upgraded Archive::Zip to 1.16. Builds properly on x64 architectures. * Fixes * 1 When 'Outgoing Queue Dir' was changed from the default, kicking sendmail into attempting delivery of a new processed message in the outgoing queue would just wait for the next regular run of the queue. Now fixed so that a delivery attempt is made immediately. This fix only affects users who have changed the "Outgoing Queue Dir" setting and who are also using sendmail as their MTA. 2 Missed 2 "defined" checks on variables before using them. Thanks to Andy Kirkpatrick for spotting that one. 2 Fixed version number check. 3 Fixed output bug in less strict phishing net. Does anyone use this? 3 Fixed bug in Sendmail KickMessage() function. Thanks to Martin Billy. 4 Removed Postfix 2.3 extra, and reverted to simple regexp as Holger's version is buggy (mismatched ')'). 5 Changed number of viruses found reported to be max of each AV package's value. - -- Julian Field www.MailScanner.info Buy the MailScanner book at www.MailScanner.info/store MailScanner customisation, or any advanced system administration help?

It'll take a couple days of logs to be sure the 'trackback' config option is working as advertised, but I'll speak up if anything looks funny. Thanks as always! Ken A.
