[Declude.JunkMail] Declude 2 and DELETE
Apparently I missing something bloody obvious, but with 2.0 running it seems like my delete action doesn't work as expected any more. Running the latest 2.x release downloaded last night. --Global Config-- WEIGHT20weight x x 20 0 WEIGHT30weight x x 32 0 --Default.junkmail-- WEIGHT20HOLD WEIGHT30DELETE In a brief conversation with Declude the response I got was: The problem is probably the change in the way the DELETE action works. In the past, it would delete the E-mail for all recipients. Now, it only deletes the E-mail for recipients that use the DELETE action. It still seems like the HOLD action is taking precedence over the DELETE action since mail with weight over my WEIGHT30 test winds up in the hold folder even though the log file says: 02/01/2005 12:25:06 Qbb6c48770128853b Msg failed WEIGHT30 (Weight of 44 reaches or exceeds the limit of 32.). Action=DELETE. I has sent Scott debug log files but I still haven't figure out what I'm missing. Yes there are a *few* per user .junkmail files, with an action of WARN, but most of the held mail is either not for them (nor are they CC'd or BCC'd as far as I can tell) and/or (may or may not be related) in the spam review application there is no To: field reported. I have also tried changing 'weight' to 'weightrange' with the appropriate scores, and still see the same results Anyone else ? Fritz Frederick P.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Declude 2 and DELETE
Fritz, We've experienced the same problem as you and for us, it was narrowed down to the catchall account in Imail. If you have a catchall account in the Imail setup, Declude will not work correctly. After many emails to Declude about this, they confirmed to me this IS a problem and one of not a high priority to fix. We've reverted back to 1.82 until it's fixed. Also, Decludes' COMFIRM.CFG does not work correctly either when there is a catchall account. The local Declude will intercept any confirmation email that going to another Imail/Declude Confirm system (thus the email never reaches it's intended source. Again, response from Declude was: it's not a high priority.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Declude 2 and DELETE
What exactly is the problem with the catchall account, and when is a fix expected? We haven't yet upgraded to 2.0 because of the periodic mention of problems with it on this list, but would like to as soon as all known issues are resolved. We don't have many nobody aliases, but we haven't been able to convince a couple of customers to remove them yet.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Declude 2 and DELETE
I've run into this problem too. My solution was to setup another delete test two points lower than your original delete test. So with a WEIGHT30 test, setup a WEIGHT28 test with the action of delete. I don't know how reliable it is, but it worked for me.

I had a similar problem with 2.0.4, in my case I had multiple DELETE actions like the following: WEIGHT20 HOLD WEIGHT25 DELETE WEIGHT30 DELETE The solution that worked in my case was to remove (simply comment out) the extra DELETE WEIGHT20 HOLD WEIGHT25 DELETE #WEIGHT30 DELETE I don't know if this is your case and if it is true also with latest version as I didn't check further. --- Franco Celli - Original Message - From: Fritz Squib [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Declude.JunkMail@declude.com Sent: Tuesday, March 01, 2005 2:42 PM Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] Declude 2 and DELETE Apparently I missing something bloody obvious, but with 2.0 running it seems like my delete action doesn't work as expected any more.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Declude 2 and DELETE
Goran, It's more precise because when you have two WEIGHTS that overlap Declude will evaluate the actions of both and pick the one with the highest programmed action. When you use the weight range option than there is no conflict of actions since your weight ranges would not conflict.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Declude 2 and DELETE
The latest version of Declude is indeed working very well. As in anything else in life, there is no such thing as perfect. This bug is apparently as the result of customer requests, in that Declude customers were requesting multiple actions and different actions for different users. Remember people, declude.exe started off being a simple yet powerful tool in the war on spam. I highly doubt Scott could have fore sought all of the added functions and features that are now present or are planned. As such, the code could not have been written with planning for all of those features and functions. Come on now, how many of us and had to go back and redo/undo work that we did one/two/three years ago because what we have to do now is changed and to make it work we have to make changes to work we did in the past. Remember, the Subject line bug did not come to light until Earthlink and Gmail started using a new software that started putting in lines in the header that no one had seen before. As for the question of using WEIGHTRANGE over WEIGHT, any time you can take steps to be more precise in defining what it is you intend to do will help to reduce possible problems down the line. Using WEIGHTRANGE will help you to clearly understand and change your intention into actual commands as it leaves less room for mistakes and overlaps.

Scott, I have not seen too much log corruption yet. In fact watching the logs scroll by it seems to be better than what we seen under earlier versions.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Declude 2 and DELETE
Uh, so the WEIGHT text is the problem? I have noticed from day one, that suddenly really obvious Spam that had failed countless tests and should have been deleted (with REALLY high weights) was actually being delivered. I had mentioned it on the list twice right after I was finally able to upgrade to 2.04 (after the crashes were fixed). I thought I was dreaming and have not yet found the time to debug it. Thanks for the pointer. If letting through high-weight Spam is low priority on the to be fixed list, then I guess I just have different priorities G?

In the past, it would delete the E-mail for all recipients. Now, it only deletes the E-mail for recipients that use the DELETE action. It still seems like the HOLD action is taking precedence over the DELETE action since mail with weight over my WEIGHT30 test winds up in the hold folder even though the log file says: 02/01/2005 12:25:06 Qbb6c48770128853b Msg failed WEIGHT30 (Weight of 44 reaches or exceeds the limit of 32.). Action=DELETE. I has sent Scott debug log files but I still haven't figure out what I'm missing. Yes there are a *few* per user .junkmail files, with an action of WARN, but most of the held mail is either not for them (nor are they CC'd or BCC'd as far as I can tell) and/or (may or may not be related) in the spam review application there is no To: field reported.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Declude 2 and DELETE
If you are moving form IMail to smartermail your declude files will transfer over with out and issue, you may need to change path settings in your config files. I have dont this on one live domain that I am testing declude and smartermail with. Only problem at this point is the declude registration which is not affecting spam processing. As for the auto install it will not update or modify any of your config files and that is as it should be. It would be scarry if it tried to especially with the flexibility of declude.

What type of problems did you spend time fixing? Instead of deleting bad messages which exceed my weight it captured them. Then I have to hand process all of them. It also got a zillion of them going to my catchall account which are normally not there so it was double the trouble so to speak. I have to hand process everything between my weight range of hold and delete to make sure that false positives are not just deleted. I also then block spam ip's while I do it which really cuts down on the next batch. I did send a low priority ticket to declude, as far as I am concerned I did the auto install and if it needed to fix things from weight to weightrange it should have done it. I haven't really currently got the time to re-do my settings. But might take a look at it in the near future but I am moving from Imail to Smartermail so not sure I should allocate the time.

[Declude.JunkMail] Declude 2.0 Issues
No issue reported to us regarding Declude software will ever be considered trivial or unimportant. It is essential that all issues be reported to Declude Support. A number of comments made recently on these lists refer to issues never reported to Declude. It should also be understood that the Declude forums are very informative for finding out from others whether they have experienced similar issues with the software. They are not, however, intended to be a mechanism for reporting problems to us. We have been monitoring the list messages regarding the DELETE action when there is a COPYALL account and we are concerned as to perceptions that there is a problem or issue with the software. There is a difference of opinion on how a COPYALL account should actually function: (a) to receive a copy of every message processed by the mail server, whether legitimate or not; (b) to receive a copy of only those messages for which there is at least one valid delivery. Aside from differing opinions on how the COPYALL account should function, our tests show that individual recipients whose per-user configurations specified DELETE were in fact being deleted from the recipient list and were not receiving the messages. At the same time, however, we discovered that there was information in the log file that would lead one to believe that the recipient was not being deleted. If the last recipient did not have DELETE as the action to take, the last action in the log file would not read DELETE, even if the previous recipient had been deleted. We are making the appropriate changes to the log file to ensure that all actions taken will be accurately recorded. In addition, we are implementing a configurable parameter to allow or disallow actions to apply to the COPYALL account. This release will be available after user testing and acceptance. It is important to know that we respond to each and every issue raised through our support system and also that when making a quote as to what 'Declude' may have said that the correct words are used within the appropriate context. --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Declude 2.0 Issues
Since we did use the essential means of reporting this problem, we still got back: No. Declude Confirm hasn't been changed in a number of years, so it is not currently a high priority. -Scott And: As for Declude Confirm, I understand that it is a priority for you. The reasons why it isn't a very high priority right now are that [1] it is a free program, and taking time to modify it takes away from time making changes to products our customers are paying for, and [2] this is an issue that has been in the Declude Confirm code for many years without anyone reporting it.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Log Corruption
There has always been corruption of the logs. What seems to have changed here is that there is a new log format and the programmed exceptions in DLanalyzer are no longer able to handle the types of corruption as seamlessly as in the past. I haven't seen the new log format, but I would imagine that if they built it in a column format and kept it to a single line, similar to Web logging standards, it should be even easier to parse the data and correct for issues. If they didn't keep to consistent columns, then this could be just as big of an issue to parse as before and a lot of the exception rules would have to be rewritten for the new format.

[Declude.JunkMail] question on calculating weights
Hi All, Hope you don't mind another simple question... I have a spam message with a weight of 2: X-Spam-Tests-Failed: SNIFFER [2] The problem with this line was that we have sniffer weighted at 7. So I went to the Declude JM log and came up with this: 03/01/2005 13:17:46 Qdbca042102961063 Tests failed [weight=2]: IPNOTINMX=IGNORE SNIFFER=WARN CATCHALLMAILS=IGNORE The problem here is that IPNOTINMX has a weight of -3 and CATCHALLMAILS has a weight of 0. So that would seem to imply that the total weight should have been 4 (7 - 3), instead of 2. Where did the extra -2 come from? Here are the relevant lines from the global.cfg file: IPNOTINMX ipnotinmx x x 0 -3 SNIFFER external nonzero d:\imail\sniffer\snfrv2r3.exe xnk05x5vmipeaof7 7 0 CATCHALLMAILS catchallmails x x 0 0 So somebody slap me on the side of my head and tell me what I'm missing.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Log Corruption
It's the same log format except that all the messages for a specific email are grouped together. Well most of the time they are grouped together. It does make eyeball parsing of the log easier. I load the logs into a database daily. With the 1.8x versions, I'll need to code around a new type of log corruption every one to two months. For the 3 days I was running 2.x, I had to code around 4 new corruption issues. Visually there is also more corruption. Odd things is that I never get log corruption in message sniffer. So somebody is writing out logs that don't get corrupt. - Original Message - From: Matt To: Declude.JunkMail@declude.com Sent: Tuesday, March 01, 2005 3:16 PM Subject: Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Log Corruption There has always been corruption of the logs.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Log Corruption
There has always been corruption of the logs. What seems to have changed here is that there is a new log format and the programmed exceptions in DLanalyzer are no longer able to handle the types of corruption as seamlessly as in the past. The log format has not changed other than blocking specific messages together. The issue about the log corruption has existed in Declude for as long as I can remember. In regards to DLAnalyzer it makes every best effort to determine if the log file line that was corrupted is salvageable. However, if you look at the log files and you will see from time to time the corruption will look like this. 04/14/2004 23:59:59 Qb45c04ab008c9990 Msg failed SPAM04/14/2004 23:59:59 Where the start of a new line will show up the middle of a test name. Due to this type of corruption it is very difficult when the user is running in auto-detect test name modes to know if SPAM04/14/2004 is a valid test name or not. Techinically it could be.. The one thing to keep in mind if you would like to phase these types of corrupted tests out of your reports you can switch to the manual test mode where you define which tests are valid on your system. There is also an import option that you can use where DLAnalyzer will read your $default$.junkmail and import in your tests.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Log Corruption
(Pete isn't here much) I remember this thread from a long time back. Messsage Sniffer doesn't take any particular efforts to lock the log file to prevent collisions. And he agreed that Microsoft Windows had the nasty habit of not always serializing writeln statements to a text file. Scott wasn't inclined to add a spinlock feature so that the log lines could be cleaned up, on the bases that it was effort taken away from other priorities, that corruption tended to indicate a struggling server that ought to be upgraded, and general annoyance that calling an atomic function in the OS... didn't work.

There are a number of things in Win32 land that are not atomic like they should be. (Atomic meaning - they complete all at once before anything else can happen.) One of these that caused a lot of extra work in SNF peer-server code is rename(). The other is appended writes to a file. As a result, it is possible for more than one thread to believe it has renamed a single file successfully - which is supposed to be impossible.

The actual file name at the end - flip a coin and pick one - JOB.BBB or JOB.AAA. Appended writes work the same way. Thread A opens a file for Append and writes Thread A stuff and only thread A stuff so there!\n Thread B opens the same file for Append and writes: Thread B, thread B, what a silly thread I B!\n Both writes succeed happily. Unfortunate sleep deprived programmer sure that he is going stark raving mad opens up the file and sees: Thread A stufead B, what a silly th\n I B! there... where ... is following on to some other unrelated log entry... (sigh) Luckily, it seems that creating a file is atomic, so there is a way out.

Well most of the time they are grouped together. It does make eyeball parsing of the log easier. I load the logs into a database daily. With the 1.8x versions, I'll need to code around a new type of log corruption every one to two months. For the 3 days I was running 2.x, I had to code around 4 new corruption issues. Visually there is also more corruption. Odd things is that I never get log corruption in message sniffer. So somebody is writing out logs that don't get corrupt. - Original Message - From: Matt To: Declude.JunkMail@declude.com Sent: Tuesday, March 01, 2005 3:16 PM Subject: Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Log Corruption There has always been corruption of the logs. What seems to have changed here is that there is a new log format and the programmed exceptions in DLanalyzer are no longer able to handle the types of corruption as seamlessly as in the past. I haven't seen the new log format, but I would imagine that if they built it in a column format and kept it to a single line, similar to Web logging standards, it should be even easier to parse the data and correct for issues. If they didn't keep to consistent columns, then this could be just as big of an issue to parse as before and a lot of the exception rules would have to be rewritten for the new format.

Back at, oh, 1.7x I ran on LOGLEVEL HIGH, and had lots of log corruption. I had to drop down to MID. The increase in spam volume made it such that at MID, I had lots of log corruption again. With 2.x and the lines being written in a batch, I noticed an immediate drop in my disk usage and a huge drop in corrupted lines.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Log Corruption
I disagree with the struggling server logic. We saw the log corruption in a test environment a year ago that had minimal traffic, say a couple thousand messages a day. It was a dual 1.4GHz processor with 1 GB RAM and 10k RPM SCSI drives. Load was only about 1-5% during testing.

Messsage Sniffer doesn't take any particular efforts to lock the log file to prevent collisions. And he agreed that Microsoft Windows had the nasty habit of not always serializing writeln statements to a text file. Scott wasn't inclined to add a spinlock feature so that the log lines could be cleaned up, on the bases that it was effort taken away from other priorities, that corruption tended to indicate a struggling server that ought to be upgraded, and general annoyance that calling an atomic function in the OS... didn't work.

Re: Re[2]: [Declude.JunkMail] Log Corruption
Correct. What I was saying I disagreed with was the concept that it only occurred on struggling servers. This test machine was very lightly loaded and we saw log corruption.
