Problem with Spam Scores since exim and mailscanner update

Post by mmfff »

Hi,

Because a vulnerability is out in Exim. i upgraded my cpanel/whm. Then, i upgraded my mailscanner...

Since then, only a few spam are tagged as spam... (i tag for scores higher than 5...)

Most of the spam receives a score like 1 or 2...

I tried a few things...
of course, i tried to mailscanner update again... restarted it... I didn,t find anything of importance in maillog or exim_mainlog ...

Finally, i did this:
/scripts/buildeximconf
/scripts/mailscannerupdate
service exim restart
/usr/mscpanel/mscheck.pl

Then exim complained about two "defer_router" ... i reinstalled mailscanner by force from WHM and it solved the defer_router trouble, but everything i did didn,t solved the spam score trouble...

What should i do now ? What is wrong ?

thanks for your time! :)

I'm debugging all this from my iphone... it,s not the ideal for searching...

Is it possible that the rules dir changed and then, i have now less rules files that before ?

Okay,

It,s finally solved... I don,t know exactly what was the problem. But i noticed at 5:02 that now the spam scores are more normal like 75 and 80 for most spam...

I crontab -l because i was wondering what run at 5:00am.

It was the sa_rules.sh script...

What is weird is that i tried to run that script many times because i was sure the spamassassin rules was the culprit... i don,t understand what happenned...
