Mailscanner + spamassassin + clamav package

marcelloc · May 2, 2012, 2:33 PM

Does anyone know what's the problem?

try to access each mailscanner config tab and save changes

How can I change the default value in Mailscanner?
Double Click or change in .conf file?

Use ctrl+click to check/uncheck options on mailscanner conf

The default value on () means what is default on mailscanner. If you want a default setup, then ctrl+click all options that has a (yes) on description.

It appears that the libiconv-1.13.1_1.tbz file has vanished from the http://e-sac.siteseguro.ws/pfsense/8/All/ site for the i386 mailscanner-dev install.

The installer then attempts to locate it at the http://ftp2.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8.1-release/All/ URL, which doesn't exist.

Thus the install is aborted. Any hints on how to resolve this?

I've pushed the missing file.

Try to reinstall it.

hammeraus001 · May 13, 2012, 9:41 PM

No luck. Install halted at the same spot. Checked the http://e-sac.siteseguro.ws/pfsense/8/All/ URL and the file still isn't listed.

Try again.

Since I finish the force perl version issue of this package, files will be available at official repo.

Package re-installed, but now has the following issue:

Any ideas?

This was working perfectly (and had been for weeks and without any changes) until yesterday.

marcelloc · May 14, 2012, 2:27 AM

This package had no changes on last months but I'll check.

hammeraus001 · May 14, 2012, 2:51 AM

Resolved the dcc_conf issue, with a chmod 744 on /usr/local/dcc/dcc_conf.

All I have now is the following:

Mailscanner exists:

Mailscanner isn't running:

Testing a VM of a clean AMD install. Will advise how it goes.

hammeraus001 · May 14, 2012, 7:08 AM

The clean install on the VM is working perfectly. I have redirected all SMTP traffic through the new VM for the time being and will rebuild the firewall on the weekend (love this "out of hours" stuff ;)).

Thanks for your help, fast responses and most of all the combination "mailscanner + spamassassin + clamav" package. Brilliant work!

marcelloc · May 14, 2012, 10:31 PM

I've pushed some updates to improve boot process, and checks to perl version and config files.

The clean install now, select all default options.

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

marcelloc · May 28, 2012, 3:25 PM

@ics:

What can I do ?

change /usr/local/pkg/mailscanner.conf.template and apply changes.

att,

ics · May 29, 2012, 7:09 AM

@marcelloc:

change /usr/local/pkg/mailscanner.conf.template and apply changes.

Thanks for the reply.

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

marcelloc · May 29, 2012, 11:29 AM

Will be there when you update/upgrade the package. :)

ics · May 30, 2012, 8:59 AM

@marcelloc:

Will be there when you update/upgrade the package. :)

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

marcelloc · May 30, 2012, 12:14 PM

Normally, just update.

A backup first is always a good idea. :)
