Sometimes I receive spam emails with extremely obvious keywords both in header and the body, with no obfuscation or anything. For example I just received this:
(Sorry for the language)
Subject: Bisexual Boys On Bed Jerking Off Hardcore
Body: Dark Haired Teen Interracial Gives Head Hardcore

And here is the SA rules involved:
spam, SpamAssassin (not cached, score=14.405, required 9, BAYES_99...

{Spam?} lfd on xxxxxxx.xxxxxx.com: blocked 74.63.75.42 (journeyyellow.com)

Had similar emails markes as {SPAM?} where lfd has blocked after 5 failed attempt, although the majority of such lfd messages coming from 'root' are untouched - why would Mailscanner be marking some of these as {SPAM?}?

If I restart the MailScanner with
# service MailScanner restart
Will it restart spamasssassin too? Because I cannot restart spamassassin with:
# /etc/init.d/spamassassin restart

CS MailScanner service package installed, so if I run:
# service spamd restart
it will start wrong SA (correct?)

I noticed clamd was dead after the recent update to v0.93.

Then I tried this:

ldconfig
freshclam

Here's what I got:

getfile: Can't write 8192 bytes to /usr/local/share/clamav/clamav-1b9a1cdc8db5b52e7e73f910b4216b82

Can somebody share his implementation/ opinions about greylisting. It seems like good way of lowering server load.

I tried to upgrade ClamAV throught the MailScanner interface yesterday which failed. It now shows A new version of ClamAV (Current:v New:v0.93) is available
The error reported through the logs is
clamd: /usr/local/sbin/clamd: error while loading shared libraries: libclamav.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Not sure what happened as all was well before the upgrade....

Will csf be upgrading to the latest version of MailScanner, current version installed is MailScanner - v4.66.5

Not sure how this is happening, but I have emails being sent to my email address and I have it set to send all low scoring spam to a spam mailbox, also at my domain. However, I am getting some of the spam emails in the spam mailbox and some in my regular inbox. I have tried forwarding to a different mailbox and this still occurs. For some reason some are still making it through to my personal...

Thanks for all the great scripts!

I am running Mailscanner FE 2.46 on my servers (cPanel 10.9.0 R118), mailscanner with default settings and CSF 2.5. All servers are setup the same.

On one server MS FE indicates MailScanner Status: Disabled! at the top of the page and the mailScanner Enable button gives only the enable option rather than disable option, indicating MS is not running. I have...

Just today, I got over a thousand spam messages all labeled as {spam?0} and the From does not have anything shown. In the expanded headers there is info, all of them vary.

Is there a bug here!? What else can I do to filter these out?
I thought about the filter from cpanel but there is no option to select regex does not match , so can I use regex matches then use !\w+ for the From field?

What a...

Is it worth it? Can it be done? Would it help clients be happier? Suggestions are needed. On the INSTALL.txt it suggests disabling SpamAssasin. Is MailScanner better, why or why not?

Help is greatly appreciated.

I am kind of a beginner on general Linux issues/performance/security things but keep learning everyday by my own re-search.

I wanted to know if MailScanner with ClamAV is that serious on resource usage?

I currently run a Quad Core Xeon 2.4GHz with 4GB RAM. I am interested in installing this 2 products which I believe I could easily do and try to optimize them. Is it really that resource...

Just went into Exim Config Editor (cPanel 11.18.3-R21703). I noticed it did an update that couldn't continue because of custom ACL's. So I did what it told me to do (attached file) and now no e-mails are coming through. Any help\insight would be appreciated.

Since the exim.conf file is too large I uploaded it here:

Thanks.

Since a reboot this morning have been getting these emails every few minutes
I did a forced reinstall of both clamav and upcp but Clamav still wont stay running

I tried looking in logs for error but didnt find any detail

Any ideas ?

Hello,

is not working.
So please let us know the steps about install free mailscanner with cpanel.

Thank you.

I am getting a lot of spam messages showing up in Mailwatch that do not have any spam score assigned to them. It is like they are bypassing SpamAssassin entirely. When viewing the header information in Mailwatch, the only thing under the SpamAssassin section is this:

Action(s): store, deliver, header, X-Spam-Status:, No

No scoring, nothing else. Any ideas on why this might be happening?

Hi am getting this error in the Tail maillog

How can I resolve this?

When I run top in memory display mode and when I check the processor usage by day in WHM, mailnull is using about 45% of the memory at all times. mailnull has 4 running processes. Is there any way to cut down on the memory usage to free it up for other things?

I followed the technical faq to store messages, my days to keep is 30 , the quarantine folder has about ten days stored now, but mailwatch only shows me 1 day.

Where do I begin looking for this problem?

Hello

We are having customers complain that their attachments are being flagged as viruses. They are sending the new Office 2007 files (ie docx, xlsx pptx).

Is there a way around this? Where / what do I change to fix this?

Thank you.
