I am using FreeBSD 5.4 with MailScanner.4.44.6 (installed with
installClamSA). I am using sendmail as my MTA.
I noticed that MailScanner is not working, because the subject line is
not being modified. After issuing a ps -ax, I noticed that their are two
sendmail processes running.
One sendmail QueueRunner process points to /var/spool/clientmqueue and
the other sendmail QueueRunner process points to /var/spool/mqueue.
On FreeBSD sendmail is enabled by this statement in the /etc/rc.conf
file
sendmail_enable="YES"
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf "QueueDirectory=/var/spool/mqueue"
/etc/mail/submit.cf "QueueDirectory"=/var/spool/clientmqueue
MailScanner.conf "Incoming Queue Directory"= /var/spool/mqueue
"Outgoing Queue
directoy"=/var/spool/mqueue
When the first process of sendmail loads by way of /etc/rc.conf, all
incoming mail is being stored in /var/spool/clientmqueue, then is
relayed on to my internal mail server for processing.
All e-mail is delivered, but is bypassing MailScanner.
I specified sendmail_enable="NO" in /etc/rc.conf, then changed my
/etc/mail/submit.cf to point to /var/spool/mqueue just like the
sendmail.cf file. I stoppped mailscanner and sendmail.
Ran
/etc/mail/make
/etc/mail/make install ( to make sure the submit.cf file change
took.)
shutdown -r now
Once the server rebooted, I logged in and ran mailq. The results said
mail queue points to /var/spool/mqueue (correct destination)
What is happening is that the mail is received and deposited into the
/var/spool/clientmqueue directory(not the /var/spool/mqueue directory).
Mail just gets queued and sits their.
I am pulling my hair out!!! Can anyone help???
