{Disarmed} Re: Probem with mailscanner + fetchmail + mailwatch

[JC Putter]

MailScanner without being quarantined again. Set the following in
/opt/MailScanner/etc/Mailscanner.conf: Search for "Scan Messages", mine is
around line 292, then set as: Scan Messages =
%rules-dir%/scan.messages.rules

 

Next, move into the /opt/MailScanner/etc/rules directory and create
scan.messages.rules: (NB this depends on your distro for Centos
/etc/MailScanner/rules )

 

On your newly created scan.messages.rules file add these entries

 

From: 127.0.0.1 no

FromOrTo: default yes

Does anybody have any clue about how to solve it??

 

Get Fetchmail to deliver to the external IP of your server and not to the
loopback interface.

 

You can do this by specifying smtphost in your fetchmailrc file.
