        Hi Marcello,

        I am getting the followining error when trying to install mailscanner:

            Working now but if you open this link on a web browser you get the following error "Access to the page has been denied

            because the following virus was detected

            Clamd: Eicar-Test-Signature-1"

            Link : http://e-sac.siteseguro.ws/pfsense/8/amd64/All/MailScanner-4.83.5.tbz

            Hope this is just a false positive :-)

              Hi Marcello,

              In the system logs I have the following :

              Oct 22 18:21:22 MailScanner: waiting for children to die: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 29 with signal 0
              Oct 22 18:21:27 MailScanner: waiting for children to die: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 29 with signal 0

              Oct 22 18:21:52 MailScanner: waiting for children to die: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 29 with signal 0

              Also where do you configure the mail server details and so on pls?

              Cheers,

              Raj

                Hi,

                I receive some emails that are not tagged (in the subject) as spam but they are spam.
                However, these emails have a Mailscanner-spamscore: s or ssss

                How can I get those kind of emails tagged with [spam] in the subject ?

                Thanks

                    Hi Marcello,

                    I've enabled strong header verification in Postfix relay and antispam.

                    In the maillog I see this:

                    hostname xxxxxxxxxx verification failed: hostname nor servname provided, or not known (just one host which is OK)
                    Is it possible to whitelist this host or should I lower header verification to basic?

                    Bob

                      I do recommend strong header verification.

                      On current package, you can include this misconfigured server on postfix forwarder acl tab. I could be on mynetwork field or on your /etc/hosts file

                          I think it's still in marcelloc's roadmap (since a while… ;)).
                          But not done yet.

                            Hi,
                            excuse me but I not understand if mailscanner is working. The postfix is fine, no errors in log, but I'm not able to find any log or activity about mailscanner.

                            The service is up, the processes are up.. but where is the log?

                            My impression is that postfix forward direct to mail server.

                            Thank you,

                            bye

                              Did you enabled "Use Third part antispam" on postfix antispam tab?

                              check mailscanner logs with  tail -f /var/log/maillog | grep -i mailscanner

                                  Hi everyone, I come back from holiday today.

                                  This work for me, thank you.
                                  The problem now is that antivirus not work. Before to ask a help, my question is: do not exist a guide for this package? A base guide, no advanced instruction. For example, it is not clear if I must install the HAVP package.

                                  Thank you qa lot.

                                  Good new year

                                    No need to install havp pfsense package, clamav is installed during postfix install.

                                    you can try to run fresclam on console to see if clamav is installed and updating.

                                      I've just reinstalled my pfsense (2.0.1-RELEASE (i386)
                                      built on Mon Dec 12 17:53:52 EST 2011
                                      FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE-p6), no firmware upgrade.
                                      I've reisntalled postfix forwarder (2.8.7,1 pkg v.2.3.4_1 ) and I not find any clamv file and freschclam command…

                                      Now I try to update my pfsense firmware and reinstall the package, after this I try to install mailscanner.

                                      Thank you.

                                          Ok, now is working right but I had to change permission in two folder, /var/run/clamav and /var/db/clamav

                                          The question now is: how I can view the log of SPAM messages? The problem is the fine tuning of the system and I need to view the log.

                                          Thank you.

                                            The question now is: how I can view the log of SPAM messages? The problem is the fine tuning of the system and I need to view the log.

                                            enable postfix log and do a tail -f /var/log/maillog | grep-i spam
