[xmail] Filters: I must be missing something.
I am having difficulties getting filters to activate correctly in my filters.in.tab file. Here is what I've found -- best explained through what I'm entering in my filters.in.tab file. The following line works: *[tab][EMAIL PROTECTED][tab]0.0.0.0/0[tab]0.0.0.0/0[tab]filter.tab[newline] So does this line: *[tab]*[tab]0.0.0.0/0[tab]0.0.0.0/0[tab]filter.tab[newline] The following line doesn't (although it appears to match the specifications from the Read Me): *[tab]@domain.com[tab]0.0.0.0/0[tab]0.0.0.0/0[tab]filter.tab[newline] Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong? Thanks in advance for any help!

I realized I had forgotten to put the * in front of the @ sign in the filter directive. However, even with the *, it still does not work... Toby, filters have to pass a code onto XMail so that it knows what to do with it. I still dont know how to get these working on 1.15 myself because I am not positive what in the world sets a code. I haven't tried it yet, but one of my current filters on 1.10 sets a sort of code based on what I score something to be, it currently uses a 1-10 system so I am wondering if in the definitions if you change it to the appropriate 97-99 if it will work, have not tried this yet though and got no feedback unfortunately about what in the world sets a code and how the system works. So, I am still lost myself which is why I still use my 1.10 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe xmail in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line help in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

My issue was definitely not with my filter itself but with the filters.in.tab file. Other than that (which I guess must have been some kind of human error - i.e. I goofed) I've been really happy with 1.15. The way to set the code from a filter is to exit using a specific code. In perl this is exit XX where XX is one of the supported exit codes. I think you would use the same in a shell script (I don't know how you would return an exit code from a C program, since I don't know C). These are changing in 1.16 (as I understand it) but right now the codes are 97,98,99, and 100. These are the only exit codes that are supported and they have specific meaning to Xmail. I don't think exiting based upon a scoring code would work, because Xmail wouldn't know what to do with it. What is your filter trying to do? If your scoring of messages is to tell Xmail how to deal with the message you should know that these are the currently supported codes: 97 Reject the message entirely, without notification, and don't freeze it 98 Reject the message, no notification, freeze it (if specified) 99 Reject the message, with notification 100 The filter has modified the content of the message 8 Do not perform any more filter actions You can add the last codes to any of the other codes, for instance my spam filter returns an exit code of 105 on spam messages, meaning Reject message without notification or freezing, and don't perform any more filtering. Let me know if this helps answer your questions, and let me know if you have any others.

Out of curiosity, what was the problem with your filters.in.tab-file? I=20 also have problems getting the AV-script to start.

Out of curiosity, what was the problem with your filters.in.tab-file? I=20 also have problems getting the AV-script to start. I'm not quite sure. We had a user specific that they didn't want to have SpamAssassin running for their domain, and since I figured this was possible for other of our customers, I made a filter entry for each domain that should be using the filter. This required setting the second column to [EMAIL PROTECTED]. For some reason, it took me a real long time to get the syntax just right. For most standard filters (applied to all users) using the two wildcards *[tab]* worked fine. I've never tried using the AV filter myself (since I don't have any installed virus software). Let us know what the specifics are for your filter, i.e. is it just for selected users, a selected domain, or all users, and we can probably give you better feedback on what your filters.in.tab file should look like.
