Hello, does someone know what Amavis wants to tell me with this message, and how to avoid these rejects? (the mail address is anonymized starting at "user=")
Feb 15 12:38:28 server amavis[3273]: (03273-17) ESMTP: 501 5.5.4 Syntax error in MAIL FROM parameters; smtp_resp: MAIL FROM:<[email protected]> BODY=8BITMIME SMTPUTF8\r\n This affects for example notification mails from gitlab com, but also some other senders. In total, it's "just" a few mails per day, but I'd still like to receive those mails ;-) It looks like this problem started after upgrading from openSUSE Leap 42.2 to 42.3 (amavisd-new-2.8.1-11.1.x86_64). The Postfix and Amavis config is unchanged, therefore I don't attach it for now. If someone thinks it's needed, I'lll of course provide it. Looking at the amavis source code in /usr/sbin/amavisd shows (starting at line 20555) my($addr,$opt) = ($1,$2); my($size,$dsn_ret,$dsn_envid); my $msg ; my $msg_nopenalize = 0; for (split(' ',$opt)) { if (!/^ ( [A-Za-z0-9] [A-Za-z0-9-]* ) = ( [\041-\074\076-\176]+ ) \z/xs) { # printable, not '=' or SP $msg = "501 5.5.4 Syntax error in MAIL FROM parameters"; } else { as likely source of the problem - at least, that's the only place where I found the error message. Does someone know how I can avoid those rejects? Regards, Christian Boltz -- If [Ford] had asked people what they wanted they wouldn't have said motor cars, they'd have said faster horses. [Brian K.
