Something like this:

mailserver.domain.com. A IN 1.2.3.4
mailserver.domain.com. A IN 1.2.3.5

domain.com. 10 MX mailserver.domain.com.

I think that should work, but haven't tried it

Sorry pdwalker, I was a bit busy last week. Yes, I use the secondary server as a backup server for the first one. The first one has a MX record with 10 and the second with 100 so the first one should handle (almost) all mail. The second one is mostly as a backup when the first goes down to keep the ...

For load balancing I would use round-robin and just one mx record.
But I use also a primary and a secondary mailserver. The adds an extra point to the spamassassin score just because it's the secondary and mostly used by spammers.

Hi, I am using an EFA server for checking mail for a few hundred domains. It works great and I am very happy with it. I use an older server as fallback server. I want to replace the old server with also an EFA server but the system requirements for EFA force me to get a server which is way too heavy...

I have that too, and I just saw an autlearn yes (no spam) , so it seems to be working. But I can't find a single spam message where the autolearn also said yes

My bayes database is scoring but every spam email I receive has got "spamassassin autolearn: no". I do quite some manual learning but it seems that autolearn is not working. I have add bayes_auto_learn_threshold_spam 9.0 to /etc/MailScanner/spamassassin.conf and restarted mailscanner, but ...

Hi, I have a lot of domains on the EFA server. One of the domain owners want their SPF fail to really be blocked. I tried writing a rule where the domainname is taken from the header together with SPF_FAIL: header __DOMAIN1 From =~ /domain\.com/ meta DOMAINSPF (__DOMAIN1 && SPF_FAIL) describ...

To answer my own question. Yes it does

Thanks Thewomble

Yep, That was it. I changed the domainname for its IP address but forgot to change the a: to ip4: :? However the score for SPF fail is 0. Can I just put : score SPF_FAIL 0 0 0 3.50 score SPF_SOFTFAIL 0 0 0 1.50 score SPF_HELO_FAIL 0 0 0 1.00 score SPF_HELO_SOFTFAIL 0 0 0 0.50 In local.cf to overrule...

Hi, I noticed that all my incoming mails for all domains (about 100) have the same SPF score by spamassassin: 0.01 T_SPF_HELO_PERMERROR SPF: test of HELO record failed (permerror) 0.01 T_SPF_PERMERROR SPF: test of record failed (permerror) I have setup a domain with a SPF record for fail but still g...

hmmm.. same problem is here:
viewtopic.php?t=2034

Also using chrome and also working in other browsers. Very strange.

Just found out that when I use the IP address of the server instead of the domainname I can log in. So it has something to do with the DNS.

First, I upgraded yesterday to the latest version (.1 to .3). This morning I found out that the local dns wasn't working anymore since 2 days and no mails where filtered/accepted :( . after changing the DNS servers in /etc/resolv.conf the mail started flowing again. Now, about 5 hours later I sudden...

are the mails sent to non existing emailaddresses? Then you can use recipient address verification in Postfix. Postfix will first check if the recipient really exists by doing a fake login on the recipient mailserver. If it exists it takes the mail, if not, it refuses the mail. Works also with a loc...

Putting the spam mails directly in spamassassin is offcourse the best option. It will be learned as spam as soon as it arrives. Wil work great when you get a spam bomb. But how do you want to create spamassassin rules? You still have to do that by hand or use very low scores to be sure it won't hit ...

Ok,

This solution did the trick. Setting Quarantine Whole Messages As Queue Files = no in MailScanner.conf.

On mailwatch site it says:
Changelog

Fixes

Regression in SA Learning and Releasing not working in detail page

Fir latest version (1.2.2) but EFA is using 1.2.3dev . Is it possible that fixes from the stable version are not included in the development version?
Why is EFA using a dev version btw.?

I am getting blank screens when trying to view a message. I had a problem getting mime errors 11 and 12 on the previous version of EFA and found a post to repair that. After that I got blank screens but That was a bug in mailwatch and repaired in the latest version. So I decided to just upgrade to t...

Never mind,
It was a problem with the browser. Restarting the browser solved the problem.

I just upgraded EFA. After the upgrade everything seemed to be working again. However, after about ten minutes I was kicked out from Mailwatch and I am not able to log in anymore. I tried changing the password with the menu and webmin but I still can't login (Bad Username or Password). I can see in ...

I know you are not from Micro$oft but is it possible to add an "are you sure?" when you type 14 (upgrade) in the menu. I can imagine that someone can accidentilly start an upgrade.

Thanks,
Roger

Ok,
To answer the first question myself: I had myself as a administrator But the defaults have to be set by an user called "admin". After adding an administrator named admin and setting spam scores for this user, the defaults were working.

Ok, I have EFA up and running and allready a few domains are using it as a anti spam /virus gateway. However I stumbled on the next problems: - I have enabled per-user scoring, but I don't want to enter every domain as a user. Is there a way to use defaults for non existent users? I guess if it is p...

I know, every 72 hours, but shouldn't freshclam try to get an update?

Edit: I now see that feshclam isn't running at all. Last activity in the log is from 2 days ago. Is freshclam supposed to run from cron or as a daemon?

Thanks,

Roger

I just enabled MalwarePatrol with a free account. However, clamav is not loading anything and freshclam is now downloading anything.
