Hi! I am experiencing problems with some spam-mail that causes amavisd to hang forever. Maybe it has some problems when running spamassassin, at least in many cases the last debug-output is from spamassassin. However, when manually feeding the mail to spamassassin, everything works fine.
Additionally, the following error is output: *** glibc detected *** amavisd (ch1-30412-01): free(): invalid next size (normal): 0x0def2e28 *** The corresponding process never recovers and has to be killed with -9. The emails that cause the trouble contain a zip file as attachment. I have saved one of those mails, together with the debug-output of amavis at the following address: http://leo.kloburg.at/tmp/amavis-hang/ Since mail delivery stops once all configured amavisd children are in such a hanging state, I am desperately looking for an advice how to further track down the bug. Additionally I'd appreciate any hints on how to reject those mails in an early state, so that amavisd won't crash. (Maybe based on the attachment-name?)
