Implement noindex tag - mailwatch login page

Hello! My mailwatch login page is showing up on google search and I dont want that. Google suggest adding the "noindex" tag in the header or with an http response. If it wasnt already indexed then the robots.txt should work too. <head> <meta name="robots" content="noindex&qu...

spam missing from domain.

Hello! Im trying to wrap my head around this one and how to prevent it. Ive never seen this type of spam sneak through. When it was delivered to my mailbox, the from address was my efa domain: It appears that part of the from domain is missing in the header so efa appends its own? But also part of h...

Re: PDF attachment converting to Base64 plain text

Im so curious where its getting changed at, if it is being changed at all. For me it come from a trusted sender with always same source so bypassing has been my work around and it fell on the back burner. If the automated messages come from random source then that can be bigger source of head ache. ...

Re: PDF attachment converting to Base64 plain text

I've been unable to trigger the problem so far. I'll probably need someone's help. What I need is the MIME part structure. This is basically the raw message before it hits MailScanner, which means intercepting it. The content and headers can be stripped out, I just need the MIME information and bou...

i cant seem to get any "rename to" rules working, even basic one. "rename" works which uses default mailscanner.conf setting (.disarmed)

Code: Select all

rename to  .new \.test$

Re: Interesting email based blacklist

oh you're right, dcc pyzor and spamcop show disabled in the lint test.

So that means HashBL.pm file doesn't need to be referenced in the loadplugin in sa v3.4.2+, because its built-in right?

Sorry for such basic questions.

Re: Interesting email based blacklist

Using v4 the HashBL plugin is already loaded in v342.pre but not listing any HashBL.pm file.

I commented out loadplugin for hashbl in v342.pre file, or alternatively add HashBL.pm and then comment loadplugin listed in the hashbl.cf file.

Re: EFA & PHI Emails

From my understanding any PHI in unencrypted email is a no no. To encrypt the email requires end to end configuration and not possible without controlling the other sides. People i know needing that end up using those encrypted email services you have to sign up for, or built-in to the emr. I also s...
