Hi,<br>
<br>
<br>
I have a debian squeeze box w/ MailScanner 4.84.3 and postfix 2.7.1 + baruwa<br>
1.1.1. This should be almost a clone of a working setup I did myself some<br>
months ago and is still working.<br>
<br>
The problem<br>
===========<br>
<br>
The problem now is that mailscanner stops processing mails until u run<br>
"postfix -r ALL", it processes the queue and stops again. I have mailscanner<br>
pick incoming postfix queue via 'header_checks'. If I commenti it (and<br>
bypass mailscanner) mail don't get stuck.<br>
<br>
The logs<br>
========<br>
<br>
When MS stops scanning mail, it starts complaining in mail.log that<br>
<br>
MailScanner[28558]: Warning: skipping message 06A602E1BA8.AFAE8 as it<br>
has been attempted too many times<br>
MailScanner[28558]: Quarantined message 06A602E1BA8.AFAE8 as it caused<br>
MailScanner to crash several times<br>
<br>
This goes on forever, content of Processing.db:<br>
<br>
<br>
baruwa:/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming# sqlite3 Processing.db .dump<br>
PRAGMA foreign_keys=OFF;<br>
BEGIN TRANSACTION;<br>
CREATE TABLE processing (id TEXT, count INT, nexttime INT);<br>
INSERT INTO "processing" VALUES('06A602E1BA8.AFAE8',6,1320255994);<br>
INSERT INTO "processing" VALUES('06CD02E06BC.A7D24',2,1320264046);<br>
CREATE TABLE archive (id TEXT, count INT, nexttime INT);<br>
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX id_uniq ON processing(id);<br>
COMMIT;<br>
<br>
<br>
Some questions to debug<br>
=======================<br>
<br>
I'd like to understand:<br>
<br>
1. Where is the message with id 06A602E1BA8.AFAE8 stored? I thought it was<br>
under /var/spool/MailScanner but I can't find it anywhere.<br>
<br>
2. Why does MailScanner processes again the message if it believe it should<br>
be skipped?<br>
<br>
3. How can I diagnose why MailScanner stops scanning new messages?<br>
syslog helps saying:<br>
<br>
Process did not exit cleanly, returned 255 with signal 0<br>
<br>
but nothing more. MailScanner --lint seems not to complain of<br>
anything... (below the result).<br>
<br>
Any help is really appreciated<br>
<br>
thanks in advance<br>
