I've been receiving a flurry of spam over the past two days where the spam gets delivered with no Declude header in the message. When viewing the log files, it seems that Declude scanned the message, found it to have a heavy spam weight, tried to move it to the hold directory, and failed with an error.
I've reported this problem several times to Declude since I first installed the product back in July. Its resolution has not been pressing, since the number of spams getting through has been relatively few. However, for some reason over the past two days (coincidentally since 3.x came out) the number of these spams has increased dramatically, enough so that I've received complaints from my customers. The thing that the spams seem to have in common is that they are sent to multiple addreses within the domain. The implication is that when the message arrives, it creates a single file in the spool folder, but since it is sent to multiple addresses Declude scans it more than once. But since the file was already moved to hold from a previous scan, Declude experiences the file error and delivers the message anyway. -------- Original Message -------- > From: "David Barker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Tuesday, September 27, 2005 2:12 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: RE: [Declude.JunkMail] opening a ticket with Declude support > > Hi Gary, > > Currently the we have the ticket response system temporarily disabled.
