      Hi Marcelloc,

      I upgrade my pf from 2.03 to 2.1 release version, it seems postfix and mailscanner is not working properly. I can still receive email but I believe mailscanner is not working in background. There is no log in "search mail" option.

You appear to have no virus scanners installed at all! This is not good. If you have installed any, then check your virus.scanners.conf file to make sure the locations of your scanners are correct at /usr/pbi/mailscanner-i386/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/SweepViruses.pm line 518

                I've pushed some fixes to the package.

                I'm Still testing/checking clamav startup.

                I've not bumped version yet, so just reinstall the package in 15 minutes.

                                Yes. Install Postfix and then MailScanner, enable MailScanner in Antispam section of Postfix, Third part Antispam Settings.

                                  I have 2 question about this package.

                                  First of all i have installed it on a PFsense 2.1 appliance and it works perfectly, the mails flow without problem to a frakking Exchange 2007 Server.

                                  My questions are:

                                  1. how can modify the mail subject adding [SPAM] if the mail get  > 5 spam points?

                                  2. how can i setup a whitelist and blacklist based on mail address, maybe with wildcards for example *@contoso.com ?

                                      is it normal?

                                      Does your postfix log errors stopped on Nov 16 or still alerting?

                                      I'll check mailscanner user errors.

                                        I have 2 question about this package.

                                        First of all i have installed it on a PFsense 2.1 appliance and it works perfectly, the mails flow without problem to a frakking Exchange 2007 Server.

                                        My questions are:

                                        1. how can modify the mail subject adding [SPAM] if the mail get  > 5 spam points?

                                        2. how can i setup a whitelist and blacklist based on mail address, maybe with wildcards for example *@contoso.com ?

                                        Any idea how to do this?
                                        Plus i would like to know if is there a method, a service or even a specific log file to check mailscanner activity.

                                          IIRC, just select send action on antispam tab.

                                          it's on postfix log(/var/log/maillog).

                                            Well, probably mailscanner was not active, i believe that change in Postfix Forwarder settings  "Message Hold mode" from auto to manual acl and setting headers with /^from:/ HOLD did the trick.

                                            Now all spam emails are tagged with [SPAM?] prefix or [Disarmed] prefix. Now it's perfect.

                                            From previous posts on this thread i've found out that is better to set the log to /var/log/maillog, now it's easier to check postfix and mailscanner activity with a simple tail command.

                                            Thank you for your time and for your precious work.

                                            I still need to figure out how to setup a local whitelist.
