Okay, I just installed MailScanner 4.75.11 over an existing installation, which was 4.57.6. When I restarted MS I got a few complaints about spaces that should have been tabs in a couple of domain-specific rule files, which I took care of.<br>
<br>
Well, I guess not. I'm still getting this one:<br>
<br>
Possible syntax error on line 14 of /etc/MailScanner/filename.tlc.conf at /usr/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/Config.pm line 1472<br>
Remember to separate fields with tab characters! at /usr/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/Config.pm line 1474<br>
<br>
Line 14 of that file is the "allow" line below, and the space after allow and the space between $ and Found are both single tabs.<br>
<br>
# Allow all other double file extensions. Specifically for ClickAndPledge.com<br>
allow \.[a-z][a-z0-9]{2,3}\s*\.[a-z0-9]{3}$ Found possible filename hiding<br>
<br>
<br>
The main problem, I think, is this one:<br>
<br>
Your setting "Mail Header" contains illegal characters.<br>
This is most likely caused by your "%org-name%" setting<br>
which must not contain any spaces, "." or "_" characters<br>
as these are known to cause problems with many mail systems.<br>
<br>
I believe these are the applicable lines out of MailScanner.conf:<br>
<br>
%org-name% = DomainVanHorn<br>
<br>
Mail Header = X-%org-name%-MailScanner(vanguard):<br>
<br>
I sent myself a test message, and here is a chunk out of the source of the message I got back:<br>
<br>

<br>
<br>
Odd that my server and SpamBayes both say it's clean, but my ISP considered it spam (WNSpam at 6.3, on that system 3.5 is a good default for the cutoff.) But the MS headers seem to be working coherently, and without any spaces that I can see.<br>
<br>
Can these be ignored, or do I have to worry about them?<br>
