Shawn,

thank you for your patience - that's it !

Hi, a little bit frustrating :shifty: : i activated the Relay Contry Good / Bad plugin in /etc/mail/spamassassin/init.pre. I get an entry in the Spam report, but there's is no description, and i don't find the error :oops: for example: https://i.ibb.co/R3ffBbN/2021-12-01-09-08-03-Mail-Watch-for-Mail...

Forget it - don't read it. Found my configuration error.

Too embarrassing to tell - i think, i'm getting too old for that.

best regards,
Frank

Hi, again some troubles, because of linux knowledge gaps. :( As you might know, i use EFA differently than thought by shawn - not as directly reachable SMTP Gateway for Exchange (Tobit David) Servers. The EFA is behind a firewall, and i get my mails via fetchmail pop3, and the EFA relays the "fetchm...

2. Use the Dutch language, and no-one will understand a word you say. Works for mail too. Go try :lol: :D :lol: :lol: Consider: i live in border neighbourhood, and the east frisia language has the same speech roots as Dutch. Although i don't speak east frisia language, i understand them, if they sp...

fetchmail issues :shock: Hi, after destroying my local certificate store, i decided to restinstall eFa complete new. :? And i use now fetchmail with option --ssplproto tls1.2 :shifty: as henk suggested - if intelligence services will read your mails, they have way to read with SSL encryption. :ugee...

Take time. I assume the gui only shows one of the official database entries - not all entries in the databases located in /var/lib/clamav. ;) 67201392 100 -rw-r--r--. 1 clamupdate clamupdate 99430 18.

Thank you - take time

And i got my old account . found the right password

Hey Henk,

also saved my day - after trying 3 different backups and wondering, what's going on here.

Sorry, i was ill the last days .... :shifty: About the word documents containg trojans. I've never seen such high spam scores. Can you show 1 detail screenshot on how this score is build? --RelayCountry?-- My rules - i use all blacklists avaiable in MailScanner (SPAMCOP/SPAMHAUS/SORBS/BARRACUDA) and...

Henk, i'm a bit lazy about disabling greylisting, you are right. :) My configuration makes no sense: :roll: pop3 -> fetchmail -> efa -> greylisting (5 mins for unkown) -> efa -> mailscanner -> smtp to Tobit David. But: i'm a linux amateur :shifty: - my configuration works and EFA does exactly what i...

Why do you use greylisting when using fetchmail? One day we get a real mailserver like Exchange and not the crap we use now - Tobit David. Therefore i decided to use an e-mail filtering applliance like EFA :D in case we change the MX records for our domain pointing to EFA. Actually all postboxes ar...

Hi henk I watched the 94 minutes episode of mission impossible VIII tonight. Miracles can happen :o Don't use salt on the open wounds.... :lol: ...Netherlands in the Final Four :clap: - who would have thought it a few months ago ? Anyway: Did you modify filename rules? Yes, i modified filename.rules...

Aha, the site admin prefers weekly backups..... ;) So back to my problem i posted last week. For some (other) reason i checked the output of "MailScanner --lint" and was suprised that no installed virusscanner gives a feedback: Checking version numbers... Version number in MailScanner.conf (5.0.7) i...

Hi, we often get mails with an embbeded download URL, wich contains either a Word/Excel/ZIP archiv infected with a virus/trojan - an example mail like this: -------------------- Dear Sirs, here is the bill you requested: Here is your bill -------------------- These mails pass the mailscanner / spama...

Hey,

after inspecting it i take the default settings - only 5 minutes if a sender is new - acceptable.

Hi guys, finally i got it - i have to read the earlier post of pdwalker exactly :hand: - he gave the hint to solve my problem. After readings his post detailed than the last time, i search the /var/log/maillog and got this - all mails from outside are whitelisted and came from localhost: (and a lot ...

i also zipped the whole /etc/MailScanner folder: www.elektro-musswessels.de/downloads/MailScanner.zip

I also edited /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf like i found here: https://www.lifewire.com/spamassassin-m ... am-1166252

Hi, i have already checked this: # If the message is spam, do you want to modify the subject line? # This can be 1 of 4 values: # no = Do not modify the subject line, or # start = Add text to the start of the subject line, or # yes = Add text to the start of the subject line, or # end = Add text to ...

Hi, i still have the problem, that spamassassin scans the mail, detects spam. but don't modifies the subject. Does anybody know a good Mailscanner/Spamassin forum, where i can post my problem ? (because the EFA works, but i'm to stupid to get it to work like i want) For example: X-MailScanner-MW24MA...

Thx for the input .... i read a lot this day - now it's all working like expected.

Again, a great appliance !

Hello, i just installed the eFa 3.0.2.5 Hyper-V image and configured it. Everything is fine, really impressive. :shock: But i have 2 litte problems: 1. i recognized in the /var/log/maillog, that postfix tries a connection to 3 other servers besides of my mailserver: Nov 8 12:16:30 MW24MailGate postf...

Hi,

in search for a solution at home i found eFa and this forum.
Now i have a lot to learn and to read, because i'm a really newbie for efa.


Hope i can ask some questions....

Thx,
Frank
