AW: Mails not processed

[Daniel Fuhrer]

Hi Glen

Thanks fort he quick response.
So I changed all the options in clamav-wrapper so these errors are fixed.
But now is there a new Message:

Quantifier follows nothing in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/* <-- HERE / at /usr/local/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/SweepOther.pm line 489.

And the main problem still exists. Some mails are not processed. I still get a bunch of this EOCD signature failures.
In the logfile is the following entry, for each mail that mailscanner can't scan:
SpamAssassin cache hit for message <messageid>

Best Regards,
Daniel

I'm not sure about this one, haven't seen it myself... Fix the next
one and see if it persists...

This error is due to you uncommenting (in
/usr/lib/MailScanner/clamav-wrapper) one of the lines:
# Uncomment ONE of the following lines if you have unarj installed
#ExtraScanOptions="$ExtraScanOptions --unarj"
#ExtraScanOptions="$ExtraScanOptions --unarj=/path/to/unarj"
But teh thing is, with modern clamscan versions at least, that option
has been renamed (snippet from clamscan --help):
...
    --unrar[=FULLPATH]                   Enable support for .rar files
    --arj[=FULLPATH]                     Enable support for .arj files
    --unzoo[=FULLPATH]                   Enable support for .zoo files
...
So you should change it accordingly.

The "Cannot find EOCD" errors should be possible to safely ignore...
As the comments tell you, when starting the debug;-).
