I am sure this is a simple problem

[Peter Russell]

I have installed MailScanner and followed the postfix guide on mailscanner
website. I send mail from machine on private LAN and the mail is accepted
and i see the following line in the maillog

Oct 31 09:02:21 localhost postfix/smtpd[9443]: connect from
unknown[10.1.10.155]
Oct 31 09:02:21 localhost postfix/smtpd[9443]: D8F1723E70:
client=unknown[10.1.10.155]
Oct 31 09:02:22 localhost postfix/cleanup[9444]: D8F1723E70: message-id
=<200310302200.h9UM0XXd003945 at localhost.localdomain>
Oct 31 09:02:22 localhost postfix/qmgr[9099]: D8F1723E70: from
=<prussell at mteliza.com.au>, size=1024, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
Oct 31 09:02:22 localhost postfix/qmgr[9099]: D8F1723E70: to
=<prussell at mteliza.com.au>, relay=none, delay=1, status=deferred (deferred
transport)
Oct 31 09:02:22 localhost postfix/smtpd[9443]: disconnect from
unknown[10.1.10.155]

Then after a while (minutes?) i see the below messages in the maillog -
like it is trying to resend all the stored/.deferred mail - but i see
nothing in the log about Mail Scanner.


Oct 31 09:02:17 localhost postfix/qmgr[9099]: 14E3423E1B: from

Does this mean that Postfix has the mail in the deferred queue, but
MailScanner is not picking it up? OR MailScanner has picked it up, but
hasnt done its spam checks, or cannot pass it back to the outbound wqueue?
There is NO other info in the log - can i turn on detailed logging for
MailScanner?

Should i be looking more at MailScanner or Postfix here? One note - in the
postfix setup doco, i had to use USER=Postfix and GROUP=Postdrop, but the
MailScanner doco say use postfix.postfix - should i use the user/group
settings i have used in postfix for mailscanner too?

Thanks - qwould really appreciate any leads, if only pointing me where i
should start looking
