Hi all.

I've just installed my first ArgoSoft .Net MailServer with MailFilter, Sophos AV and SpamAssassin (all demo versions at the moment until I know they all work as I want them to) but can't seem to get SpamAssassin to scan any messages.  I just get 'Return code:1" in the log and there is nothing in the .eml files to suggest it has been touched.

I have 3 other servers working perfectly and having set them up the same and compared settings I'm at a loss (the only difference being newer versions of everything).  The one thing I can see that is different, and I don't know how to change it, is the temp folder used when scanning.  My other servers all use C:\Windows\Temp but this new one is using C:\Program Files\Server Side Solutions\MailFilter\Temp - could this be anything to do with?  I've checked permissions, etc.

Any help welcome!

Thanks,
Dave

Hello Dave,

Please try this tutorial. Although, it's written for eWall, it should work for MF too:

Alex,

Thanks for the reply. That's exactly what I have in my batch file but I'm using the perl version of SA, not the Win32 version. I may download that and try it anyway. I have the other version working well on 3 other servers so not sure why this one is being problematic.

Regards,
Dave

Hi all.

Even with the Win32 version of SpamAssassin it won't work - here is the output when it runs sa.bat (as per the above)...

31/03/2008 20:22:29 45 4151 Applying action 'run 'sa.bat''
31/03/2008 20:22:29 45 4151 C:\Program Files\SpamAssassin\sa.bat C:\Program Files\Server Side Solutions\MailFilter\Temp\0000002D.tmp
31/03/2008 20:22:29 45 4179 Return code: 1

I think it's related to the temp folder, as all my other servers use c:\windows\temp and they're fine. I've no idea who to change this though.

Any suggestions welcome

Thanks,
Dave

It does not work due to the spaces in the path C:\Program_________Files\Server_______Side_______Solutions ...

Try to quote the path!

Hi Roland.

I tried that but it still fails (unless it still has that problem with spaces in the path to the temp file). I even tried using C:\Progra~1 etc but not luck. I've even compared folder permissions with my other servers but can't see any difference.

How do I change the temp path that MF uses? That's the only thing I can think of.

Thanks,
Dave

Dave,

I have tested it, believe me. The problem are the spaces in the Argument (maybe aswell in the path to sa.bat):

C:\Program Files\Server Side Solutions\MailFilter\Temp\0000002D.tmp

If you run C:\my path to\sa.bat C:\Program Files\Server Side Solutions\MailFilter\Temp\0000002D.tmp sa.bat will try to pass the file "C:\Program" to spamassassin. "Files\Server" is considered as second Argument, "Side" as third "Solutions\MailFilter\Temp\0000002D.tmp" as forth.

-Roland

It should work if you either install MailFilter into a path without spaces or you just try to quote the Command Line in MailFilter. Change {X-MF-Filename} to "{X-MF-Filename}" [not tested]

Hi Roland.

The only way I could get this to work was to put it in C:\SA - I tried using short file names, wrapping everything in quotation marks, etc but still it wouldn't work.

Thanks for your help with this

Dave

Mail Server

  • Added additonal tracking of connections for SMTP and POP3: if they stay on for over 30 minutes, they are getting disconnected;

Web Interface

  • Fixed a problem, when session timeouts were causing errors in the windows system logs;

Mail Server v1.0.5.8

Mail Server

  • Mailbags now have an option to accept mail only when specified server is down - will help to fight with spam which attempt to deliver mail bypassing the main server;
  • When delivering mail, if main exchanger returns 4xx reply (temporary problem), the server will not try other exchangers, will retry later the main exchanger;
  • Server options moved from registry to a XML file. 64 bit versions of Vista and 2008 server appear to be having access rights problems to the Windows registry, and the change will make our server more compatible with 64 bit versions;
  • Added an option to specify the number of lines on the log screen, when using the user interface. Was causing memory problems if left running for long time;
  • Fixed couple of problems, which were showing when SQL server was set up to use case sensitive SQL statements;
  • Made changes in the remoting interface to allow logging in using aliases;

Web Interface

  • Made changes to allow logging in using aliases;
  • When viewing folders, web interface now displays the name of logged in user;
