Re: [Declude.JunkMail] IPBYPASS - Not sure if this is working??

2002-11-20 Thread R. Scott Perry


I am not 100% sure IPBYPASS is working.  I am running Declude 1.60.  The
following email was found in the spool directory.  It has no markings
that it was scanned by declude.


That's not an IPBYPASS issue.

The IPBYPASS (and HOP/HOPHIGH) options let Declude JunkMail know which hop 
to scan (IE the computer connecting to your mailserver, the computer 
connecting to your backup mailserver, etc.).  No matter what the settings 
are, you should still see the 'generic' Declude headers (such as X-Note:, 
X-Declude-Sender:, etc.).

Was there also a Q*.SMD file for this E-mail (without one, IMail won't try 
to deliver the E-mail)?

Scott,

What I was referring to with IPBYASS is the 12.25.87.100 is a backup
mail server that needed to be skipped.  My HOP Settings are as follow's

HOP 0
HOPHIGH 2

I did not find any reference in the imail logs to the Q File.

There was no other references in the log files pertaining to
a436386800b47455.  I am almost positive that the mail wasn't
delivered.

However, not seeing the declude generic headers added and seeing how the
email was scanned and the declude log's showing it was scanned concerned
me.  It led me down the trail that maybe mail being routed through the
backup server was getting through somehow.

Also, the D* file no longer exists - does Imail purge D* files that do
not have an associated Q file?

Don't worry about that -- the IPBYPASS/HOP/HOPHIGH settings won't cause the 
behavior you saw.

I did not find any reference in the imail logs to the Q File.


You won't.  What you need to do is look in the spool directory (where you 
found the D*.SMD file) for a matching Q*.SMD file.  If there isn't one, 
then there is a problem of some sort (in this case, it would likely mean 
that IMail tried delivering the E-mail but could not, and could not bounce 
it either).

There was no other references in the log files pertaining to
a436386800b47455.  I am almost positive that the mail wasn't
delivered.


Is there a file _a436386800b47455.~MD in the spool directory (which would 
indicate that the file is locked)?

Are there any C:\Declude.gp1 or C:\Declude.gp2 files?

Also, the D* file no longer exists - does Imail purge D* files that do
not have an associated Q file?


Ah, that's why the Q*.* file didn't exist -- IMail has delivered the 
E-mail.  Now, you'll see the E-mail delivery in the IMail log files.

Scott,

The logs still do not reflect that the mail was delivered.  Although
there are no traces of it in the spool directory.

I also checked for locked files _* and did not find any.

I do have a declude.gp1 and declude.gp2 but they are dated 10/16/2002.

I understand there is not much to go on, is there anything I can monitor
to make sure all is well.

Darrell

If the D*.SMD file is gone, that's an IMail issue -- either it's broken (if 
it just deleted the D*.SMD file), or it should have delivered it (in which 
case it should appear in the logs).  Remember when searching log files, 
NEVER search for the full name of the file; always search for the name of 
the file minus the first character and extension.

I also checked for locked files _* and did not find any.


I'm not surprised in this case -- if the D*.SMD file is gone, it's unlikely 
that the _* file would still be there.

I understand there is not much to go on, is there anything I can monitor
to make sure all is well.


It's hard to say what happened here.  Are you sure that the D*.SMD file you 
looked at originally wasn't just an E-mail that was arriving on the server 
(in which case you may have opened it while Declude JunkMail was processing 
it, before it added its headers)?

Scott that very well may be the case.  I was under the impression
declude processes the mail prior to it being placed in the spool
directory.  Is that not the case?

That is not the case.

First, IMail's SMTPD process receives the E-mail, and IMail is required to 
save the file to the disk (per the RFCs).

Then, Declude scans the E-mail.

Finally, IMail's SMTP process will take care of delivering the E-mail.
