          Hi,

          I would like to disable the change on email subject when mailscanner "disarm" an email.
          So I modified Mailscanner.conf and the line "Disarmed Modify Subject = no"
          but it comes back to its previous settings  "Disarmed Modify Subject = start" on reboot.

          What can I do ?

          Thanks

              Thanks for the reply.

              This file doesn't exist so I modified the file /usr/local/pkg/mailscanner.inc
              And it seems to work  :)

                  And about updates, is there a procedure to update packages ?
                  Or I just need to click on "Reinstall this package" in the package manager ?

                    Normally, just update.

                    A backup first is always a good idea.  :)

                        Your antivirus is up to date ?
                        freshclam –version

                        clamav is not automatically updated, you have configure your crontab.
                        To update manually :
                        /usr/local/bin/freshclam

                                    Clamd::ERROR:: UNKNOWN CLAMD RETURN ./lstat() failed: Permission denied. ERROR :: /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming

                                    Is anyone seeing this error in the /var/log/maillog.  It's obviously a permissions error, but I can not figure out how to get rid of it.

                                    the /var/spool/MailScanner/ is created by postfix. I tried adding clamav to the postfix group as well as www and wheel the error still occurs.

                                      clamd should be running with postfix user.

                                      Try to apply maiscanner config and check in /usr/local/etc/clamd.conf what user is configured.

                                        Multiple installs all installed

                                        postfix->mailscanner->dansguardian

                                        I check them all all have

                                        Run as another user (clamd must be started by root for this option to work)

                                        Default: don't drop privileges

                                        User clamav

                                        Tried save mailscanner configuration and enabling and disabling the daemon. It appears that the program is not updating the clamd.conf at all.

                                        Did a new clean install -postfix-mailscanner-dansguardian.  Saved the mailscanner config and checked the clamd.conf "clamav" was still the user.

                                        Manually edited the clamd.conf and changed the user from "clamav" to "postfix" reboot and everthing is working properly.

                                          I'll check again the code and include a force config file option. On my install it's working with user postfix without any manual edit.

                                            I have a problem with Mailscanner, mailscanner installed today so  it should be uptodate.
                                            Working with postfix and mailscanner-dev: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,40201.0.html

                                            Mailscanner do exit every second or two. with this in the log:
                                            mailscanner: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 1 with signal 0

                                            I also get this in the log:
                                            ClamAV Module ERROR:: Could not load databases from /var/db/clamav

                                            So i tried to do as suggested here and tried to run this:
                                            /usr/local/bin/freshclam

                                            but then i got this error:
                                            ERROR: Can not open /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log in append mode (check permissions!)
                                            ERROR: Problem with internal logger (UpdateLogFile = /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log)

                                            When i check the folder /var/log/clamav it is emty!!
                                            Same thing with /var/log/db  emty!!

                                            Running freshclam –version
                                            Gives ClamAV 0.97.3

                                            and did run this one(/usr/local/bin/sa-update ) too and that did run with no output.

                                            So is mailscanner restarting every second because clamav has no db??

                                            EDIT: Might have been a bit quick posting here.

                                            Manually created the log file: /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log and changed permisions so any thing could log to it.
                                            then tried to updated and then it complained it could not create tem folder in /var/db/clamav so i changed the permisions on that folder so it could update and create the temp folder.

                                            And now i am stuck on this error when trying to update clamav:

                                            WARNING: Clamd was NOT Notified: Can't connect to clamd through /var/run/clamav/clamd.sock  
                                            connect(): No such file or directory  ???

                                            The folder var/run/clamav/ is emty? Should it be?
                                            And now mailscanner is veining me this in the log
                                            mailscanner: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 0 with signal 9
                                            And i get alot of this: kernel: swap_pager_getswapspace(4): failed until i get this:  kernel: pid 8874 (perl5.12.4), uid 125, was killed: out of swap space
                                            And then it continues with: swap_pager_getswapspace(5): failed

                                            Sorry for noob questions.  ::)
