[Mimedefang] Missed Viruses
Hi all, I seem to be having an issue with MD and clamAV. I am now running clamAV and Trends vscan - ClamAV first. Some viruses are slipping past ClamAV, but are being picked up by Trend. I have started to quarantine the ones picked up by Trend - and when I submit the entire message to the clamAV online scanner the virus is found. When I scan the entire message locally the virus is not found (which I thought was OK as I did not think clamAV would unpack it's own mime messages anyway.) Looking at the missed viruses they are all bounces from other systems that have attached in some way or form the entire virus. I am thinking that for some reason MD is not unpacking all the possible mime parts and thus clamAV never gets to see a binary file to check. I have thrown a sample at: http://lists.vu.edu.au/MD/ENTIRE_MESSAGE Has anyone else come accross this? Any ideas on what I may be doing wrong?

RE: [Mimedefang] OT: problem with helo
Hi, Thank you for the reply's, for now then I'll just take it that the telnet client is having issues and that this will not affect mail transfer when it is sent through email client/server's. Thanks for the help andrew -Original Message- From: Andrew Jayes Sent: 17 May 2004 15:55 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Mimedefang] OT: problem with helo Hi, Sorry it's off topic, but I thought someone may know the answer. When I telnet to my mimedefang box on port 25. I get the standard greeting just fine. But if I type 'helo' it returns 'needs a domain' so I then put 'helo domain.com' and I am allowed to continue with the mail. What I have just found on a fresh telnet is, after the greeting if I put 'helo domain.com' I get 'command unrecognised' so I then have to put 'helo' and get the error and then 'helo domain.com'. Basically is this just how it is, or is something wrong?

RE: [Mimedefang] multiplexor problems
Marius, In sendmail.mc have added INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`mimedefang', `S=unix:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang-multiplexor.sock, F=T, T=S:360s;R:360s;E:15m')dnl The milter config needs to point at the main MIMEdefang socket, not the multiplexor socket. Use: INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`mimedefang', `S=unix:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock, F=T, T=C:15m;S:5m;R:5m;E:15m') ...and adjust the timeout values to something appropriate for your connection and requirements. The values shown here are as recommended on this list several times.

-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stewart James I seem to be having an issue with MD and clamAV. Version of MD? If you're not running 2.42 or later then you'll have problems with clamav. Version of clamav? You need to be on either 0.70 or a similarly recent devel snapshot. Are you running clamd or clamscan with MD? I have started to quarantine the ones picked up by Trend - and when I submit the entire message to the clamAV online scanner the virus is found. When I scan the entire message locally the virus is not found (which I thought was OK as I did not think clamAV would unpack it's own mime messages anyway.) Maybe your signatures aren't current. Maybe you've not enabled the mailbox option.

[Mimedefang] Recovering Quarantined Message
Ok, I tried the FAQ item and since I don't have a ENTIRE_MESSAGE file, I'm out of luck? I just want the PART.1.BODY (.chm file) Where can I find the fang.pl?

Between those 2 and my own access list for sendmail - I have great success at this point. Yea, maybe I get 5 SPAMs a day - but I can live with that. Based on everyone's feed back, i put Spamhaus as my first sendmail dnsbl. It blocked 27,283 connections since 10:33am today. Sweet. No complaints yet. Do these rejects show up in the mailstats command? I am graphing with rrdtool the esmtp msgsrej data, but i'm guessing the dnsbl is showing up under C (TCP connections) row msgsrej.
