      I am currently traveling without access to fix these issues.  If you can, please hold off on further bug reports until I return so that I do not feel overwhelmed.  Thanks!

        I think that there may be an error in parsing "bad" e-mail addresses when displaying the SpamD database:

        I'm seeing the following when "sorting by Attempts":

        | Type | IP | From | To | Attempts  ↑ |
        | GREY | 77.205.81.230 | | ty{n2000@HECOUNCIL.ORG> | 1209078047 |
        | GREY | 83.9.63.26 | <martac-ti|< td=""></martac-ti|<> | {pyr@AOLLC.COM> | 1209076738 |

          It's a known issue when someone puts a | in the email address.

            @blueivy:

            ===
            javascript:toggle_on("d24", "/themes/nervecenter/images/icons/icon_x_p.gif");getURL("spamd_db.php?buttonid=d24&srcip=''''catchallATblueivy.co.uk''''&action=delete", outputrule);'

            It's got something to do with the quotes around \catchallATblueivy.co.uk.

            Looks like maybe just a quote mismatch, you have double quotes in the front of the address and single quotes after the address.  Hopefully a simple fix.

            This looks like a parsing bug of some kind, notice there is an email address for the ip address.  Can you reproduce this?

              Here are the issues I've come across so far with our testing:

              • Spamtrap email addresses don't get saved or applied.  Entering in an address doesn't add it to the database, and eventually the field is listed again as empty.  Re-Adding the entry similarly doesn't work.

              • No RRD Graph reporting.  This was part of the original bounty and I'm quite sure it was in the original spamd package.

              • As previously reported, entries in the "queue" cannot be whitelisted, blacklisted or deleted.  The icons just wiggle instead of doing anything.

                I concur with those issues.  I am seeing the same on one of my client's firewall.  I just didn't have time to put it down in words.  I personally find the third one most annoying.

                Add to this the parsing error that Knobee & blueivy reported earlier.  I too am seeing that in some entries.

                  I'm still trying to chase down why this happened and what the details are, but as soon as I removed a blacklist from the spamd configuration, my shaper rules blew up:

                  Anyone seen anything like this?

                    Yep, its definitely related to spamd, I had to kill the install of spamd and now the shaper rules are not broken anymore.

                      I don't see any way that it could be linked to SpamD.  I'll have to speak with eri

                          I'm still trying to reliably re-create it, if I can, I'll send you the rules.

                              I just re-installed the package and the jiggly buttons that do nothing still seem to be there.

                                They are still there, but they do work now…  Or at least the delete function button worked for me?

                                  Apparently they work, but only if you reload the page manually.  My personal feeling is that pressing the buttons should cause the page to reload itself, otherwise you'll have lots of people frustratedly thinking that the buttons don't work.

                                  Also, on that same page, the database totals apparently don't work.  I have several items listed as "Whitelisted" but the totals show 0 items whitelisted.

                                    There is a little blurb about that on the page at the bottom.  The idea is being able to rapdily delete, deny or whitelist a number of domains without having to wait on page reloads…  So I dunno, I personally like the ajax option but maybe we just need to hide the table row after an operation occurs.

                                      Yeah probably, since we all know that nobody reads the helpful little blurbs.

                                        Hi! I would like to test spamD, on one of my pfsense installation, but i need some guide on setting it up. I've read the man page on openbsd site just to have a clue, but a quick howto would speed things up.

                                        The idea is to let my pfsense box be a gateway for our internal exchange server, that is being flooded with spam right now  :-.

                                        Thanks.

                                          The package is really for testing right now, I wouldn't recommend putting it in production unless you 1) know what you're doing or 2) can tolerate potential lost email.

                                            Ok. You would not implement it at this point!  :-[ Anyway i can help to accellerate the testing process? I was testing it with vmware.
