I set up mailscanner on a new mail server, got it working and tested it by
send several virus e-mails as well the eicar.com file and it worked just
as it should.
I then reconfigured the IP / hostname of the machine and put it on as a
live mailserver, and now it won't catch any viri. I can see that it is
working from the header stamp, the maillog logfile, and by watching the
var/incoming directory fill up with files then empty. I have double
checked that my virus scanner (uvscan) is still working.
My set up is Sendmail 8.12.1, as used when testing (when it worked)
Solaris 8 and mailscanner-2.60-2. Again, this all worked fine until I
re-configured the machine (sys-unconfig'ed then re-configed, only chaing
the IP and hostname)
What can I do to find out where the problem is? Now that this is running
live, I hate to have to shut it down for an extended period to test again.
Thanks,
