From MailScanner at ecs.soton.ac.uk Thu Jan 4 19:45:33 2007 From: MailScanner at ecs.soton.ac.uk (Julian Field) Date: Thu, 04 Jan 2007 19:45:33 +0000 Subject: New Year's Resolution and new beta release Message-ID: <459D595D.8010101@ecs.soton.ac.uk> Hi folks! Yes, it's me, I've actually had time to catch up. My New Year's Resolution is to try to spend more time doing MailScanner support. For the last 6 months I have only had time to check my mailscanner at ecs.soton.ac.uk address, not the mailing lists at all. Several months recently have been really tough at work on a personal level, having to face up to the consequences of my poor health in ways I have not had to before, which was a really rough time. I have more or less come to terms with it now, and the facts have pretty much sunk in so I am feeling rather better now than any time over the past few months. I don't guarantee I'm going to be able to check the list every day, nor read every posting, but I will try a lot harder to show my face around here sometimes. I have a big database programming job that is going to last for the whole of the next year, so my time is limited. But I am going to try to reshuffle a few things in an effort to make more time for you guys. I have never done much database programming before, I've always found a nice light-weight way around having to use a full scale SQL server. And I've never done any .Net or C# before either, so I've got a lot to learn. Secondly, I have just released a new Beta version. This is 4.58.4. I have fixed the bug where the {Fraud?} tag was not displayed, but the {Disarmed} tag instead. You should now get {Fraud?} wherever it finds a phishing trap, and you will also get {Disarmed} if you "Highlight Phishing Fraud" as well. I hope that is good enough for you. I have also figured out how to get the configuration system to call a ruleset from within a Custom Function. So if you want to handle some situations with a Custom Function, but then have that use a ruleset some of the time, you can now do it. It is something I never dreamed up when I was writing it, so it is pulling a stunt I never thought I would need. I have produced a stripped-down example of how to do it, and the code is in the /usr/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/CustomFunctions directory, along with the other few examples I provide you to start from. I intend to release a new Stable version very soon, hopefully in the next week or so. Please do test the new {Fraud?} tag code and give the whole thing a good run on any test hosts you may have available. Beta-testers ----> This means you guys please! So it just leaves me to wish you all a very good New Year, and let's hope this year is personally rather less stressful than last year! Best regards.

Message.pm lists things like $spamreport (set by IsSpam) as well as the things I'd expect to see available to a 'message object' (message headers, body, etc). Does a 'message object' ever contain $spamreport? If so, then for which configuration options in MailScanner.conf could I call a custom function that might have access to $spamreport? Or am I missing the flow of things completely? :-( Thanks, Ken A.

I'm hoping this will be a good-un. I'm just sorry that it has taken so long from the last stable release to this one, and for so few improvements. To say work has been hard would be an understatement. I've got to update the book too. And then there's the world tour too, some of which will happen this summer. Looking for places to stay in August in Boston or the nearest to there in Canada, but Boston is preferred. I am planning on staying in Maine for a few days, then going to Canada or Boston from there. All volunteers are welcome! See ya, Jules.

I cant really find any info on it To support milters that add/delete or change headers and recipients, Wietse added a few new record types for the queue file format. In 2.4 he also use them to do body edits. He seems to have liked the thought that one shouldn't alter more than necessary, so instead of rewriting everything when there wasn't enough space in the original message, he made the p record... Which is a pointer type thing, that just denote the position in the file to go to (after the original end of file marker)... There can be multiple "forward" p rexords, but only one "backward"/p record "chain". Since we're not using the original queue file anyway, we're (or ... I am ...:-) working on a semi'elegant (well, the elegance will probably arrive with Jules having time to look it over:-) way to construct a p record free queue file from the original. It's been tested for 2.3, but there still is a less than elegant hurdle to jump when it comes to 2.4s body edits (and being sure one has read it all, without errors... Or rather that the file has been completely written). As it is now, one would have to at least "spin through" the body once prior to actualy reading it... Or perhaps not... We will see when Jules (or someone else:-) has the time to help out. Any clearer?

I confess that I didn't pay as much attention to this thread as I should have. I run split outbound queues, ie: Outgoing Queue Dir = %localrules-dir%/outqueue.rules where the ruleset looks like: To: @colby.edu /var/spool/mqueue/fastq FromOrTo: default /var/spool/mqueue/slowq I want to keep the local stuff dis-entangled from outbound stuff that may not be resolving, to speed up local delivery. I also run a cronjob every 5 minutes that moves the non-deliverables to a delayq to get it out of the way: #!/usr/bin/ksh # # Move messages with more than 3 retransmission attempts to slow queue # QTOOL=/usr/local/adm/qtool.pl FASTQUEUE=/var/spool/mqueue/fastq SLOWQUEUE=/var/spool/mqueue/slowq DELAYQUEUE=/var/spool/mqueue/delayq # #---anything in fast or slow queues with more than 3 attempts, go to delayq #---stuff will sit in the delayq until either delivered or returned #---the delay queue has more generous sendmail timeout settings $QTOOL -e '$msg{num_delivery_attempts} > 1' $DELAYQUEUE $FASTQUEUE $QTOOL -e '$msg{num_delivery_attempts} > 3' $DELAYQUEUE $SLOWQUEUE So the idea of kicking my slowq or delayq sounds like it will defeat my plan. Is there a list archive for the beta list someplace that I can go look at?

Take a look for the sub called KickMessage in the pm corresponding to your MTA and you'll find the code. Pretty easy to reverse engineer and change to what you want.

Staring at it, I realize that it kicks my fastq and slowq, but it has no clue about delayq since the qtool.pl script pulls laggards out of the slowq and makes them disappear into the delayq. So you have a winner as far as I'm concerned -- KickMessage keeps my fast and slow queues lean and mean. Wheeee!

What's new in 8.14? nothing that really should affect MS, just a few things people have used for years as hacks are now default features, like require_rdns, blocking bad_helos, badmx. Tries to recognise and block common http proxy messages, a fix for where those that use tcpserver or the like to invoke SM if rejected wont any longer invoke greet pause, milter API is vastly rewritten, some greet pause dropout error messages were as helpfull as micro$ofts error messages, now fixed, many other new additionals to miltering and extending some LDAP stuff and probably other stuff I cant think of off top of my head, cuase its 10.30am and i've only had 1 damned coffee all day :( -- Cheers Res "We can be Heroes, just for one day" - Davey (Jones) Bowie From mailscanner at ecs.soton.ac.uk Tue Jan 30 07:36:11 2007 From: mailscanner at ecs.soton.ac.uk (mailscanner) Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2007 08:36:11 +0100 Subject: Fwd: image.jpg Message-ID: <200701300736.l0U7aBKf016091@safir.blacknight.ie> An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

By default this is set to no, but also by default the size limits are disabled. If you set the minimum attachment size to 1 then no-one will receive notifications about broken viruses sending out 0-length copies of themselves. This helps to minimise the amount of backscatter mail out there. This also includes the fixes to the Postfix code for kicking the MTA to trigger the delivery of new messages, when multiple copies of Postfix are running supporting multiple outgoing queues from MailScanner. Please do some final testing for me, as the stable release is due for Thursday. The Change Log is now this: * New Features and Improvements * 1 Added accessor functions to Config.pm to enable implementation of ruleset evaluation within a Custom Function. 4 New example Custom Function to show how to evaluate a ruleset from within a Custom Function. 5 Checks the SA cache more intelligently now, to use the required score from the right message always. Thanks to Olaf.Ohlenmacher at colt.net for this. 5 Supporting code for BarricadeMX. If you haven't got this superb package yet, contact Fort Systems (www.fsl.com) for an evaluation licence RIGHT NOW! It's superb, and even runs on Windows with Exchange, in addition to all the other platforms normally supported. Say goodnight to all your spam problems. It will reduce the load on your mail servers so much that you won't be needing any upgrades for a few years, which will save you a whole load of money! 5 "MailScanner --lint" now checks the version number of the MailScanner.conf file to ensure you are not behind with your settings and need to run upgrade_MailScanner_conf. 6 Improvement to check_MailScanner script so it prints Done or Failed as appropriate. 7 Mail sent out to split mail queues will only be picked up when the MTA next scans the queue. This problem will be rectified in the next release. I didn't want to change the code so close to the release date, I will fix it very soon. This does not affect the vast proportion of users. 7 Okay, I've changed my mind. The new code is in for testing. 8 Mail sent out to multiple mail queues will all cause the MTA to be "kicked" into knowing there are new messages in the outgoing queue waiting to be delivered. 8 Added new configuration option "Notify Senders Of Blocked Size Attachments = no". This is to stop notifying senders of 0-length files which are generated by some broken viruses and worms. It does also control sender notifications for other sizes of attachments that are outside your pre-set limits set in other configuration options. * Fixes * 1 Small addition to Config.pm for one customer. 2 Don't use 4.58.1, bug introduced in Config.pm. 4 Bug fixed where {Fraud?} Subject: tag would not appear when appropriate. 5 Fixed bug in Exim delivery code that would leave stray defunct processes lying around in some situations. 5 Now kicks Sendmail/whatever about all messages in all outgoing queues. 5 MCP doesn't pick up sa-update rules any more. Thanks to Jason Desai. 5 AVG7 support improved. 6 Bug fixed where 1 disarmed message followed by another 1 non-disarmed message would cause the 2nd message to be tagged disarmed in the Subject: line, but only if the message batch would be processed in exactly 1 particular order. 6 Fixed bug with extra "Disarmed" tags where there shouldn't be. 8 Postfix support for split queue kicking fixed. Sendmail support working well. 8 Fixed potential DoS attack bug with very long headers in ZMailer support. Patch from Leonardo Helman.
