Re: Disable Double Extension

I've been wrestling with allowing specific double extensions (*.com.pdf, *.com.pdf.zip) for the last couple of hours and no matter what format I try in /etc/Mailscanner/filename.rules.conf, I can't get it to _not_ block legitimate email attachments. Thinking there must be some particularly arcane fo...

efa in the cloud

The blacklisting feature in efa is a bit lacking on the ease of use front when dealing with the 12 domain names we use, having to add each IP address to blacklist for each domain we have without any seeming option to use a wildcard or CIDR notation. I decided, in exasperation, to take the nuclear op...

Same here for the Undefined Offset errors in www-error.log. Not seeing your error in maillog though.

Re: opendmarc.service failed - kills mailscanner?

I noticed the three new rpm's being available this morning but hung back from applying them pending any teething problems. However, my eFa instance appears to have automatically updated itself in the last hour. Luckily without any issue. I've even just seen the offending email that was causing our p...

Re: opendmarc.service failed - kills mailscanner?

Yeah, it didn't work for me either when I tried it yesterday. My efa stops processing mail every 4 hours at 59 minutes past the hour without fail. I think it's the same email triggering the seg fault every time and suspect the email is stuck in the queue of the external backup smtp service we use, h...

Re: opendmarc.service failed - kills mailscanner?

Just returned from 10 days leave to find we've got the same problem too. Started last Thursday evening by the sound of it. Hadn't even realised there was auto updating going on, other than for clamav.

Yup, same here. Hopefully the colleague that has faithfully been monitoring incoming mail for the last 10 days and flagging and reporting spam hasn't been wasting his time entirely.

Re: Best method to deploy new EFA v4

Hi MattS, As you did provide minimal details... Since you are not able to download the GeoIP2 lite database, did you check DNS (Unbound) after the initial install? (I've done several Efa4 kickstart installations, with the CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-1908.iso, without issues.) Thanks Henk. Not sure how ...

Re: Best method to deploy new EFA v4

Looks like I have the same problem with my existing 3.2.6 install so maybe it's actually a Wormly issue or something with SSL configuration common to 3.2.6 and 4.0.2.

Re: Best method to deploy new EFA v4

Hmmmm. Maybe it hasn't gone so well after all. Still got whatever this geoip download problem is which might be why I can't see anything listed in the recent messages screen (assuming it behaves in a similar way as it did in 3.x). But, I thought I'd test emails from an external source before changin...

Re: Best method to deploy new EFA v4

So I ended up going with the curl method which seemed to work fine on a CentOS 7.8-2003 Minimal install on a fresh VM. Only issue I've had is downloading the GeoIP2 lite database. I've obtained a licence key and installed that through EFA-Configure okay but when I try to download it through the web ...

Best method to deploy new EFA v4

The time has finally come where we're going to deploy a replacement for our v3 based EFA server and I'm wondering what's the most straightforward reliable way to deploy a new install. I've followed the evolution of v4 but have also seen numerous fixes and tweaks needed to configuration files post-in...

Re: Enhance search on this forum

In a world of TLA's, the more than 3 character search limit is frustrating in the extreme. I used to be a member of an ip.Board forum that had the same problem and also flood control on the searches that meant you had to wait 30 seconds before submitting a new search. The first thing I did when I go...

Postfix/TLS certificate requirements?

I've just had to change the hostname of one of our eFA (3.0.2.6) boxes to a proper public FQDN. Having just tested connectivity from the outside world using checkTLS.com it's highlighting the fact that the current self signed certificate still uses the old hostname (and the fact that it's self-signe...
