I've made a bunch of tweaks recently and things are running well, however I had a heck of a time getting all the various components of graphdefang to install correctly, gd/GD to be specific and well I decided to abandon that and just push the various things into a DB and then do some PHP or other to create the reports I want to see.
However, the minute I add use DBI; to my mimedefang-filter things start failing. Without it , I do a connect, helo mail from (forged) and am slapped down, adding use DBI; I can helo/mailfrom/rcptto/data and then the system just sits there, never finishes, never accepts the mail as being done, until I remove use DBI and hup my Mail processes, then the system closes the connections and delivers the forged email. For example, until I remove use DBI; from my mimedefang-filter, the connection does not end, sits here and I end up with slaves being used up until there are no more, as inbound connections are waiting the 250 (hello honeypot!)
