signing outgoing clean messages

[S Mohan]

I did this in SignCleanEntity function after the first two lines as

MailScanner::Log::InfoLog("Signing Clean Entity");

This appears in maillog. Where does it read the files in? If I put in
something there, I'll know if it is able the signature files or not.

I can give you access but it has to be root as files are owned by root. I'd
prefer to change the password, give you access and change it back once you
are finished. This is a production server and hence I'm wary. Can we try it
on Friday evening IST which would be mid day GMT/ English time? If I say 1pm
GMT, it would be 630pm IST which is fine as customers would have left for
the day and following days are holidays.

How do we communicate when you are trying this stuff. Yahoo messenger or any
other IMS? Please let me know and I'll see what we can put to gether.

Regards
Mohan

The code is in "sub SignUninfected" in Message.pm. You might want to try
adding some lines like
         MailScanner::Log::InfoLog("some text here");
into that function (and the SignCleanEntity function underneath it) to see
what is getting called and when.

Alternatively, if you can get let me log in to your system remotely, I can
take a look for you and find what's wrong.

I can't suggest much more than that as I can't reproduce it.
