*HELP* I'm flooded by spam!

 

I recently upgraded MS to the latest FreeBSD port version and found problems
with the latest p5-Mime-Tools so I reverted this port.

However MS is not scanning for spam anymore, I don't see any headers
appended to the message anymore.

 

SA is running fine no errors while doing a lint or manually scanning a
message.

 

# Add this extra header to all messages found to be spam.

# This can also be the filename of a ruleset.

Spam Header = X-%org-name%-MailScanner-SpamCheck:

 

# Add this extra header if "Spam Score" = yes. The header will

# contain 1 character for every point of the SpamAssassin score.

Spam Score Header = X-%org-name%-MailScanner-SpamScore:

 

FreeBSD unix-asp.com 8.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE #0

Virus Scanner test reports:

Clamd said "eicar.com was infected: Eicar-Test-Signature"

 

If any of your virus scanners (clamd,f-prot-6)

are not listed there, you should check that they are installed correctly

and that MailScanner is finding them correctly via its virus.scanners.conf.
