I followed the discussion on why this happening and I understand the logic. But since Outlook is so spread among corporate users worldwide, shouldn't mailman have its own workaround? Just like the web coders did for IE* shortcomings all these years. I got mimedefang to work but it was not easy at all. There is hardly any cheat sheets out there for such combination. OS: Centos 5.6 Postfix: 2.7.3 I had to upgrade from distribution's 2.3 main.cf smtpd_milters = unix:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock milter_default_action = accept milter_protocol = 3 mimedefang: 2.72 I had to run as usr postfix because of permission problems : postfix/smtpd[9768]: warning: connect to Milter service unix:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock: Permission denied change user: in /etc/sysconfig/mimedefang to be : # Run the multiplexor and filters as this user, not root. RECOMMENDED MX_USER=postfix I had to edit /etc/init.d/mimedefang # Since /var/spool/MIMEDefang might be tmpfs, ensure that it is properly # initialized. chown postfix:postfix /var/spool/MIMEDefang restorecon -R /var/spool/MIMEDefang >/dev/null 2>&1 if [ ! -d /var/spool/MIMEDefang/.razor ]; then mkdir /var/spool/MIMEDefang/.razor chown postfix:postfix /var/spool/MIMEDefang/.razor chmod 0750 /var/spool/MIMEDefang/.razor fi if [ ! -L /var/spool/MIMEDefang/.razor/razor-agent.log ]; then # The Razor2 log is mostly useless, and we can't change its location. # In order to prevent it from filling up the spool, we just link it to # /dev/null. ln -sf /dev/null /var/spool/MIMEDefang/.razor/razor-agent.log chown -h postfix:postfix /var/spool/MIMEDefang/.razor/razor-agent.log fi This only had to be made in 2.72 it was not needed in 2.70 Mailman 2.1.9 The mailman functionality needed I did as per : http://stuff.mit.edu/~jik/software/mailman_mimedefang/mailman_mimedefang_fix_footer.pl.txt there might little things here and there but I am still dazed. :D By the way, the footer now is not an attachment but the unsubscribe link in the footer is not clickable. I wonder if there is a solution for the link?
