I'd be willing to take a shot at it in the dead of the night (when spam ratio is high) and if we get through that in production during the day.

Pete, This is great news! It would also be a better option if you are able to work with smarterTools directly and see about getting sniffer integrated as a built in call when enabled. SmarterTools added an option for declude integration a few years back and we have been waiting for a true integration within smarterMail. Your solution will work for some, but we would require it to be built in vs the cmd line option as we use that for other software processing currently.

Is there any failsafe in place to remove it from the loop if it detects it is not performing as expected? Nothing special is in place (nothing automatic). SNFClient fails safe (returns 0) after 30 seconds or so if it cannot connect to SNFServer. That almost never happens though. Taking it out of the loop should be as easy as unchecking the box. _M -- Chief Scientist ARM Research Labs, LLC www.armresearch.com # This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list sniffer@sortmonster.com.

[sniffer] Re: Direct SmarterMail integration -- Some Testers ?
Folks, Having integrated Sniffer into MxScan for SmarterMail, I would like to shared some of my thoughts : 1. From what I can see at the moment neither Commtouch nor Declude has direct hooks into the SMTP sessions. Any integration at SMTP session level would definitely require some changes from SmarterMail's end. 2. The PROC folder is basically another way for 3rd party utilities to interface to the MTA, however take note this happens after the SMTP session has been completed and NOT during. 3. The command line option works but as someone pointed out earlier it is also being used by other 3rd party apps/processes for customer jobs. While it would be possible to encapsulate all 3rd party command line applications using a script it would be not be ideal. SM command line also has its own timeout settings. It tends to get message when u have more than 1 command line application in use. Cheers -Matt -Original Message- From: Message Sniffer Community [mailto:snif...@sortmonster.com] On Behalf Of E. H.

Sniffer is so good at what it does that there is some real potential there depending on the degree to which you integrate with the SM anti-spam features like SMTP blocking for example. This would take some real work of course. -Original Message- From: Message Sniffer Community [mailto:snif...@sortmonster.com] On Behalf Of Pete McNeil Sent: Wednesday, June 09, 2010 6:46 PM To: Message Sniffer Community Subject: [sniffer] Re: Direct SmarterMail integration -- Some Testers ?

We're asked about it frequently, and since the command line option already exists it's worth fleshing out a bit. We've avoided building an interface for the proc hooks because: A. There are already solutions there for that (as you point out). B. We would really like to see a much tighter integration with SM that can take full advantage (during SMTP, not after). If enough folks are interested in a proc hook based implementation of SNF then we will do it, of course. _M -- Chief Scientist ARM Research Labs, LLC www.armresearch.com # This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list sniffer@sortmonster.com.
