Dear Clive Eisen,

write(2, "Bad RFC822 field name \'\'\n at /us"..., 86) = 86


Mail::Internet seems to be the culprit, the message has a rouge header field "-:" which crashes MailScanner.


Working on a patch.

Do you have an eta

Anything we can do to help?

Thanks to you, Clive and Brian PASSANTE and all others, that we have a patch that fixes the header line "-:" in those spam messages. Headers are read using Mail::Header instead of Mail::Internet, and the body using Mail::Internet, instead of the previous technique wherein Mail::Internet read in the while mail in a single pass. This may increase the time to scan a mail, though in a negligible amount.


Please get the patched Qmail.pm and QMDiskStore.pm from http://opencompt.com. The links are http://opencompt.com/QMDiskStore.pm and http://opencompt.com/Qmail.pm.

If any of you have any trouble with this new version, please let me know.

cheers,
Karthikeyan, S.
