An account on my machine is being bombed by thousands of messages to non-existent users with faked gmail from fields (and the faked gmail accounts are all different). These pile up in the undeliverable queue and so do gmail bounce messages. (Currently averaging 12K mesages per day). I banned a handful of the sending IP addresses, but there are still many more coming.
I don't want to do a server...
In the default MS config, the Find Phishing Fraud value was set to yes, but this caused an issue where our own outgoing mail to a customer got scary red text in their Email (from us) warning it's a phishing fraud! MS didn't like the link we used I guess.
In MS it says I can use a rules file for this setting, so I created a rules file and pointed the...
I have noticed recently that every day on my cPanel server, sometimes multiple times per day, but not necessarily at the same time, MS will hang --i.e., stop processing mail. MS reports that it is up and running, but the queues build up significantly and no mail is being delivered. The only solution is to restart MS manually from within MSFE, at which point MS begins processing again and...
Hi,
I have been using MS for a number of years without issue. Lately I notice that mail stops flowing. I login to my whm and the load is fine, everything looks ok, the services are all running and check out ok. I go to plugins msfe and it says its running and happy. I check the status its ok. I go to mail ques and the incoming que is piling up. I go back to msfe and restart mailscanner and the...
Over the last few months on one of my servers I have been seeing this error (warning or whatever); check_mail_permissions could not determine the sender domain slowly increasing in number. It started with a couple of users on one domain when they sent mail remotely from their office out to their customers. Then a domain on the server that uses x-cart mailer (smtp) started showing the message....
MailScanner became oddly inactive on March 4. No more quarantine folders, no incoming, no scanning. All messages glide to the inbox.
I have run in debug mode. Here is the result:
In Debugging mode, not forking...

MailScanner had been running fine, but today seems to stall, no entries in maillog for several minutes, no changes in MailWatch. Then it will start again process a couple batches then stop again. Sometimes I have to hit MailScanner Restart in MSFE. Of course, now my Pending Queue number is climbing.
I also am seeing entries like this a lot in Maillog: SpamAssassin cache hit for message xxxxxx.
I know that there are many more MailScanner rules than what typically shows up in the email header, but I wonder, what is logic of rules that display a zero (0.00) score?
For example, I am seeing a lot of these lately:
URIBL_BLOCKED 0.00
So, what does that mean? Does it mean that the incoming IP was indeed listed in this blacklist, but MailScanner did not place any importance on this...
I enter a whitelist rule like From: *.domain yes into the spam.whitelist.rules file.
The next day I see it dissapearing or resetting. I do however see a few rules customers put in still at the top.
Just wondering why it keeps dissapearing when entered through terminal.
ClamAV and Clamavconnector addon installed by mistake by our support folks on our server where MailScanner is running.
Now, clamav is failing and getting restarted once in a while.
Currently, MailScanner and clamd are running.
ClamAV is reporting it's out of date on my server where it's already been recently installed by ConfigServer so I decided to have a stab at upgrading it myself. I'm not doing very well.
I followed the instructions here:
http: / / config server. com/free/clamav.html
I downloaded the correct archive and put it in my /bin/ folder on my server (running Centos 6.3) and then extracted it fine. Did...
Something has changed on one of my servers since last night. I can't get MailScanner to run. I have disabled it for now so new mail will get delivered via Exim. But there is a ton of mail in the MailScanner queue that won't get delivered until it gets properly restarted (or removed, I guess). Here is what I have done.
When I try to start MailScanner using /sbin/service MailScanner start I get...
I've read through the config file and searched through this forum for anything related to allowing .cab and .sai files to be sent in mailscanner but can't seem to find anything in the subject lines that relates to my issue. I have to send my simply accounting files to my accountant and mailscanner won't let them through. Is it possible to allow these files to pass on a one time basis when I need...
Dear All,
We all have some ways to make out MS installation works better and more efficient in fighting spam. It would benefit for all of us to share our rules we use in MS along with some information how to apply them. Correct me and participate in this thread.
I'm being using mailscanner for years, but considering cpanel has added a bunch of few new features, is still MailScanner the best option?
I'm asking because I'm configuring a new box, and remembering what have to do to install MailSacanner and tempted to test the cpanel options (clamavconector, spamd ...)
I went to cpanel forums and couldn't find any recent post regarding the...
