Hello ppl

Is there a work around - we are still not getting updates for scamnailer and Mailscanner blacklist

Log:

ok Checking that /var/cache/ScamNailer/cache/2013-164.6 exists... ok I am working with: Current: 2013-164 - 6 and Status: 2013-164 - 6 No base update required

And mailscanner still reads

:

Read 3966 hostnames from the phishing blacklists

Any input is appreciated, Thank you
 

/Jesper

I am not at all certain it is related, but also pay attention to the MailScanner.conf (or MailScanner/conf.d/your-conf-file) for the values of Incoming Work Group and Incoming Work Permissions.

wrt "Scan Messages = %rules-dir%/scan.messages.rules"

Three questions:

1) Does MailScanner do a case sensitive match when scan.messages.rules file is used?

2) Which "From:" does scan.messages.rules use (Envelope or Email Body)?

3) Does MailScanner directly implement the match and action or is this passed to SpamAssassin to do the match and action?

1) nope, email addresses are not case sensitive.
2) Envelope, MS always uses the Envelope-from in from parsing.
3) this is the 'big knob' that tells whether MailScanner scans the email or not. Way before it's passed to SA, anti-virus or checked by mailScanner again RBLS (independently of SA). etc. Be very careful with setting as it's basically sending email through with zero scanning. Might want to look at the the "Is definitely Not spam" setting. Normally this is only used for trusted ip-addresses not email 'from' addresses.

hope that helps
