RE: SPAM-WARN:Re: [Declude.JunkMail] RE: On RFC Violation - Declude allows attachments and Virus to pass through untouched and unscanned
Matt, Justa minor point, it doesn't affect your logic. Now according to Michael's tests, the CR-only pattern leads to parsing issues in Declude Virus where it can't even find the attachment to scan it. Actually, it was the "No Cr" (I.E. LF only) test that passed completely undetected. By the way, I agree with you. As I pointed out in my original message, there are several web sites that send legitimate response messages (an Airline comes to mind readily) that fail the test. They are not entirely broken, but some lines are missing the Cr. I think it depends on what section of code they happen to be running through. It is a typical issue of Linux/Unix '\n' programming habit. Michael ThomasMathbox978-683-67181-877-MATHBOX (Toll Free) ---This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

[Declude.JunkMail] Different issue - Process flow question
Hi All, 1. Is it not true that when properly installed and running, that Declude handles EVERY message that passes through the mail server? 2. There is only one GLOBAL.CFG. 3. Every message processed should attempt to run every external test. (That's why many external tests accept the current weight as a parameter so it can bail out early if the current weight meets or exceeds the external test's set bail out weight) But regardless of whether the external test decides to bail early, it should still get invoked. Isn't that correct? Michael Thomas Mathbox 978-683-6718 1-877-MATHBOX (Toll Free) --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] RE: On RFC Violation - Declude allows attachments and Virus to pass through untouched and unscanned
Hi Matt: Now according to Michael's tests, the CR-only pattern leads to parsing issues in Declude Virus where it can't even find the attachment to scan it The point I'm trying to make is, that the attachment not discovered problem may not at all be a problem with incorrect linefeeds IN the attachments themselves, but rather simply an error of incorrect linefeeds in the HEADERS. By not detecting the intended end-of-header (and possibly MIME headers), Declude considers the body (and attachments) part of the header until it reaches end-of-message. In other words, they should be able to concentrate on handling single LF or CF characters in the SMTP and MIME headers. Inside the attachments, Unix style LF characters are pefectly fine and valid. The fact that attachments are scanned is just a secondary problem of the underlying header issue.

This was their answer to handling the broken spam issue, but it is not an appropriate fix since this throws the message into your Virus directory which is typically outside of one's review process. There was an assumption by Declude that this was all spam at the time that they introduced this as a fix for the broken header thing (after they failed to find a solution for resolving the header issues). Here's what Scott Fisher said in response to my claim that this wasn't all spam: I certainly regularly receive incorrectly formatted email. I'm pretty small volumne, but looking over my logs (I have an external test for this condition), it is 111 non-spam messages this month. My email volume is pretty low. But I'm not looking forward to hand correcting 120 of these a month. I don't have stats on this, I just know that I don't need to be blocking this. In fact, the broken spam doesn't even get to Declude but very rarely since greylisting takes care of it. I would have just about a 100% FP rate on this filter. Now according to Michael's tests, the CR-only pattern leads to parsing issues in Declude Virus where it can't even find the attachment to scan it. I think the best approach is to read the E-mail into memory, convert the main copy in memory to CRLF if a non-CRLF pattern is found anywhere and store another original copy, set a value to trigger a Declude JunkMail test if the pattern is present in the headers, and if that is set, when it comes time to write the message, use the CRLF patterned headers and the original body that way you aren't rewriting someone's purposefully formated LF-only or CR-only pattern. Unfortunately all it takes to trigger this is a Perl or PHP programmer doing a message form and using \n being not aware of the RFC's, but being consistent with Linux, and instead of the \r\n pattern that it should be. I can't block E-mail based simply on this one pattern because it will capture good E-mail regularly, and do so outside of my spam review system. Also, there are dozens of RFC violations that are not only common, but also tolerated by mail servers and E-mail clients, and outside of Declude, this is one of those things that is mostly tolerated. The reasoning to treat it as a vulnerability was not because it was, but because they couldn't figure out a way to rewrite the headers properly. I'm confused as to why unless they just simply didn't want to touch the code involved. I do hope that they go back and figure out how to make that work otherwise I will be faced with blocking legitimate E-mail in a non-reviewable area, or potentially passing viruses completely unscanned. That's not a good set of choices. Matt Andy Schmidt wrote: Hi Matt, I'm not sure that the issue is attachments. There is nothing wrong with attachments using Unix/Apple linefeeds. But the RFCs for SMTP (and similar protocols) all require that each header line must end with CRLF and each header line ends with CRLFCRLF. Anything else is not a legitimate SMTP mailer - but rather a poor attempt in faking one. We agree that in the headers CR only or LF only should be treated by Declude as if they were CRLF (and detected as header violations, nevertheless). I also have no problem if Declude were to fix those linefees to proper CRLF if it so desires.

I am using fpreview to view the files in the spool and there are currently 180 or so emails. when i try to "return to queue" I get an error saying that the q file could not be found, whch isa bit strange becasue many many of the emails are local to the server. When I look in the /spool there is a not a single q file anywhere. Any ideas whats happening? Has sniffer or declude gone nuts?
