you for the info.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=690084518-19062002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>There
was <FONT face="Times New Roman"><FONT color=#000000 size=3>a line in the
/etc/syslog.conf file ">mail.none /var/log/maillog <" I changed it to
">mail.debug /var/log/maillog <" (none to debug) restarted syslog and
still no go.</FONT></FONT></FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=690084518-19062002>Upon reading your next option I also noticed
there was a missing "-r" switch in the line from /etc/rc.d/init.d/syslog .. I
did a restart and unfortunately no go.. I restarted mailscanner.. then a tail -f
/var/log/maillog and no action..:( at that point I can send mail still but all
of a sudden I cant receive any new ones..so I tried sending mail from a remote
domain over and over and got no erros on the sendees side but on my receiving
end (with mailscanner) I received no new mail.. being in a panic ..lol.. I did a
mailscanner stop and then a sendmail start and immediatly received all mail from
10 minutes ago from the remote domain.. These test emails have no attachments
and have as little as one word of text in both subject and body..permissions for
any files including the maillog have not been altered since the beginning
of mailscanner install...from yesterdays fresh new install of mailscanner the
only thing new today was the new version you put out on the ftp
site..mailscanner-3.20-6.i386.rpm -U option was used.. that i did... (not saying
this problem wasn't an issue yesturday, ,it was).. I have found something in
Google about a statement in a procmail.rc file? I did a locate for it and its
not on my RH7.2 system at least. apparently someone had a issue with maillog not
being written to and a line in that file was the fix..oh well, I hope to get
this thing working .. I like it.. As with some unix programs i have to put up a
small fight..but its worth it to keep windows and gates away from my world..:)
Thank You Much for speedy reply!! however I am still stuck.:(</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=690084518-19062002>I did check all files and reread the
mailscanner.conf file.. no changes to the conf file were needed.. It kept my
previous settings.. sophos etc.. </SPAN></DIV></DIV></BODY></HTML>
