MailWatch Release error

2008-03-27 Thread Sachin Shirodkar
Hi 
This has been bugging me for long now and after hours of googling and searching 
the forums I had to finally post this question,
My server runs MailScanner and Mailwatch as a spam filter, everythingwas 
working fine until ORDB suddenly blacklisted all mails as spam,this took me a 
couple of hours to figure out, by the time i had fixedthis I had well over 500 
mails tagged as spam and moved to thequarantine section. I have tried to 
release them individually but Ikeep getting this error Release: error 
(Validation failed for spamfilter). 
Hoping someone can help me with this.
I tried to run sendmail from the command line, but the command justsits there 
and does nothing, am I doing something wrong. Please help.

Thanks Karl, 
 Yes I did notice that earlier, and that's how i fixed the ORDB, but during 
this period all my mails were blacklisted and were moved to the quarantine 
area, I need to release these messages, there are two ways of doing it (there 
could be more) , one is through the front-end Mailwatch which gives me this 
Release Error, and the second way is through the CLI using 'sendmail' which 
seems to be doing nothing.

This link could explain some of your problem. The ORDB is not longer
working and will falsly mark mail as spam to get your attention.
Remove the ORDB checks from your list i guess.
