ScamNailer users also need to update the ScamNailer script in the same way, or download the updated ScamNailer script.

Cheers,

Phil

Many thanks for the offers, I have already got it setup and running again.

You can either
1. Download and install the latest release from www.mailscanner.info.
or
2. Edit /usr/sbin/update_bad_phishing_sites (and /usr/sbin/update_bad_phishing_emails if you have it too). Change "www.mailscanner.tv" to "cdn.mailscanner.info".

After doing this,
     rm -rf /var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine/phishingupdate
     /usr/sbin/update_bad_phishing_sites
(and run /usr/sbin/update_bad_phishing_emails if you have it too).

This will regenerate the correct cache, as it may have been corrupted by the people who swiped my domain.

Sorry about all of this,
Jules.
