[AMaViS-user] help on notify_method please
I read the sample config file and various docs but this notify_method parameter in the config file is still a mystery to me. Can someone kindly help me understand ? What exactly does it do ? Do I need to use it ? What is the fundamental difference between notify_method and forward_method ? If I have MTA X (192.168.0.1) sending to Amvavisd-new (192.168.0.2) and the resulting messages are to be forwarded to yet a 3rd server: 192.168.0.3, what should my notify_method and forward_method be like ?

Re: [AMaViS-user] Runaway amavis check eating CPU
Regarding this in case anyone wanted to know it was a spamassassin problem, Apparently spamhaus firewalled me for too many queries and i had the dnsbl check plugin on spamassassin enabled which was causing the process to kind of go stale i think. I disabled the plugin and the cpu usage went back to normal. Thanks for the input from earlier -James Mark Martinec wrote: Check the timing report (at log level 2) to see what task was taking most of the resources. A message transfer from MTA to amavisd can take about ten seconds for a 100 MB message on a reasonably fast machine, the rest depends much on a contents type - decoding and virus checking. You won't know what was it until you look at the timing report. A transfer of a message from amavisd back to MTA is about an order of magnitude faster than receiving it (unless you have a very old version of amavisd), so should not be a problem. For a message of this size, spam scanning was skipped ($sa_mail_body_size_limit). Mark - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Cauba $forward_method = 'smtp:[192.168.0.3]:10025'; The default: #$notify_method = $forward_method; should serve your needs. $forward_method lets amavisd-new know how to get to the next-hop server (typically the same server it's already on - but in your case a different server) for mail amavisd-new has received. $notify_method lets amavisd-new know how to get to the next-hop server for notification messages that amavisd-new creates (notes to administrators about viruses, banned files etc. for example). It's rare that they would need to be different. -- Gary V - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

[AMaViS-user] Playing with the amavisd-new custom hooks
Dear All, I've been playing around with the Amavis::Custom hooks for fun and entertainment, it's cool stuff. I'm not seeing, however, and maybe I just missed it, a nice hookable way to add per-recipient headers. If I haven't missed something clever, would there be any interest in a patch for this? If so, which would be the preferable method: 1.) add a per_recip header array to be added by add_forwarding_header_per_recip 2.) add another hook somewhere or some other ingenious something I doubtless haven't though of, yet.
