Are you using the hold directory as a work directory? If so, this would be causing the problem.

Incoming Queue Dir = /var/spool/postfix/hold
Incoming Work Dir = /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming

The TNEF package you are using should be fine. That is the one the MailScanner install script installed. (Either from the repo or from the one hosted by MailScanner.)

Policyd – should be only used for quota  spf and greylisting is disabled -- hm
SQL Grey  should be used for it ..

check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:2501, check_policy_service unix:private/policyd-spf

just some historic  stuff ESVA did years ago …

so what package you suggest for tnef ?

[root at demo3 ~]# rpm -qa | grep -i tnef
perl-Convert-TNEF-0.17-10.el6.noarch
tnef-1.4.12-1.x86_64

to prevent others running into this ..

Regarding the error you were seeing:

After I restarted postfix and mailscanner, the directories disappeared from the hold directory and the notices went away. The error you were seeing is typically related to tnef. You have the latest version of the internal decoder with MailScanner, but the binary you are using should also work correctly. I can’t reproduce the error now.

I logged in and checked your server and sent a couple of test emails. None of these items are related to your problem but I thought I would point them out:

- Your policyd seems broken. Pretty sure the mailborder.com<http://mailborder.com/> SPF records are correct but your system failed them.
- Policyd also failed gmail.com<http://gmail.com/> on SPF. Pretty sure their stuff is correct as well.
- Just my opinion, but you should consider just using the Spamassassin module for SPF checks and adjust the spam score for failing records. You can also create custom chains based on scores, etc.
- Not sure how you installed Postgrey, but there are no configuration files that I could find. You should have a whitelist somewhere.

Your permissions in MailScanner.conf should also be 0660. You may also have to manually remove the offending file or directory that is hanging up MailScanner.

Probably permissions. Fix them on those directories and then remove your Processing.db file from /var/spool/MailScanner. (Make sure you stop MailScanner first.)

chmod g+w /var/spool/MailScanner/*
chmod 0775 /var/spool/postfix/hold

I would suggest creating a group that has clamav and postfix as members and use that in your MailScanner settings. This prevents a lot of permissions issues. I use a group called mtagroup.

groupadd mtagroup
usermod -a -G mtagroup postfix
usermod -a -G mtagroup clamav
usermod -a -G mtagroup clam

(either clam or clamav depending on your distro and clam version)

chown postfix:mtagroup /var/spool/MailScanner
chown postfix:mtagroup /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming
chown postfix:mtagroup /var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine
chown postfix.mtagroup /var/spool/MailScanner/spamassassin
chown postfix:mtagroup /var/spool/postfix
chown postfix:mtagroup /var/spool/postfix/incoming
chown postfix:mtagroup /var/spool/postfix/hold

Start MailScanner running again.

Did I something wrong ?

I am running 2 childs

[root at demo3 hold]# ls
3484  3519

By running the mailq command I get those errors?

[root at demo3 ~]# date

An postfix reload removes both files and then I get the next error …

[root at demo3 ~]# service postfix reload

Did somebody get the same result – or my configuration is wrong may there is a way to suppress the showq warnings?

Thank you,
mike
