Package: postgrey Version: 1.27-1 Severity: minor Hej, I have recently switched to postgrey (thanks for including exim support so quickly), however nowadays I get regular mail from logwatch.
Jul 28 16:22:21 m26s25 postgrey[12793]: warning: Use of uninitialized value in string eq at /usr/sbin/postgrey line 241. I have googled a little bit and found a thread on upstream's list ending with http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/postgrey/msg00444.html "It really sounds like something specific with your system thats causing one of the values to be undef. The author of postgrey has done an excellent job and nobody else has reported the warning that I can recall on this list." However this seems to be easily reproducible after adding --delay=20 to POSTGREY_OPTS in /etc/default/postgrey (otherwise waiting takes too long) by while : ; do socat STDIO TCP4:127.0.0.1:60000 < /tmp/postgrey.in ; sleep 5 ; done with /tmp/postgrey.in containing ----------------- request=smtpd_access_policy protocol_state=RCPT helo_name=bar client_address=12.13.15.20 client_name=example.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----------------- The syslog stays clean while postgrey returns action=DEFER_IF_PERMIT Greylisted, ... however when it sends action=PREPEND X-Greylist: ... this appears: Jul 28 19:40:41 argenau postgrey[4488]: warning: Use of uninitialized value in string eq at /usr/sbin/postgrey line 241.
