Hey all, I ran a search of my current problem on google and found some
answers, but none have worked for me & I'm hoping you can help.
I just installed MailScanner on a Fedora 11 sys using postfix. When I run
MailScanner --lint on that system I get:
root at timmy ~]# MailScanner --lint
Trying to setlogsock(unix)
Read 855 hostnames from the phishing whitelist
Read 10091 hostnames from the phishing blacklists
Checking version numbers...
Version number in MailScanner.conf (4.77.10) is correct.
Your setting "Mail Header" contains illegal characters.
This is most likely caused by your "%org-name%" setting
which must not contain any spaces, "." or "_" characters
as these are known to cause problems with many mail systems.

I have found clamav scanners installed, and will use them all by default.

The weird thing is I have MailScanner 4.60.8 running on Fedora 7 with the
same settings (other than hostname) and it has no complaints:
[root at jimmy ~]# MailScanner --lint

Here is my current MailScanner.conf & spam.assassin.prefs.conf's applicable
data:
MailScanner.conf:
current: %org-name% = timmy.futuremetals.com
have tried: %org-name% = FMI
spam.assassin.prefs.conf:

have tried: bayes_ignore_header X-FMI-MailScanner-SpamCheck
have tried: bayes_ignore_header X-FMI-MailScanner-SpamScore
have tried: bayes_ignore_header X-FMI-MailScanner-Information
***On my working MailScanner 4.60.8 installation I have it set & working
with no complaints as:
MailScanner.conf:
%org-name% = jimmy.futuremetals.com
spam.assassin.prefs.conf:
current: bayes_ignore_header X-YOURDOMAIN-COM-MailScanner
current: bayes_ignore_header X-YOURDOMAIN-COM-MailScanner-SpamCheck
current: bayes_ignore_header X-YOURDOMAIN-COM-MailScanner-SpamScore
current: bayes_ignore_header X-YOURDOMAIN-COM-MailScanner-Information
As shown above I have tried MailScanner.conf & spam.assassin.prefs.conf
with both configurations, restarting MailScanner after changes, then
running --lint. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
