Re: Corrupted e-mails
Hiya Here is my .qmail, which runs SpamAssassin on the incoming e-mail for this account: |/usr/local/bin/spamassassin | /usr/local/bin/maildir /home/jon/Maildir/ #./Maildir/ well, Jon, if you look above the # in a dot qmail file means to drop the email and not deliver. I don't quite understand what you're saying. The second line is commented out; the first line tells qmail to pipe the e-mail through spamassassin, then write the result to my Maildir (using maildir). also, you are running S/A as a very expensive daemon above, calling the main S/A for each mail received... My server is a 1GHz Athlon that spends a lot of its time twiddling its thumbs... If you must do it this way, please see http://www.magma.com.ni/~jorge/spamassassin.html That's the page I got my .qmail config from. The only difference is that I don't use the '-P' flag since it's now the default for SA. Just to emphasise: my Qmail/Spamassassin setup has worked fine for years; it's only relatively recently that a very small number of e-mails have been getting corrupted. I think a better way is to use the S/A client in a .qmail file, and have the S/A daemon running... A very nice way to do this is at. http://www.gbnet.net/~jrg/qmail/ifspamh/ Thanks, I'll take a look.

Corrupted e-mails
Hiya For the last few months, I've had a problem where a small number (less than ~1 in 1000) of e-mails get corrupted. All I have in my Maildir is something like the following two lines: Return-Path: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In case case it's a spam so it's no great loss, but I've had it happen to important e-mails too. Here are the appropriate lines from my maillog: Aug 18 05:35:17 dookie qmail: 1092803717.270465 new msg 2018 Aug 18 05:35:17 dookie qmail: 1092803717.270808 info msg 2018: bytes 6860 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] qp 66137 uid 82 Aug 18 05:35:17 dookie qmail: 1092803717.283085 starting delivery 1895: msg 2018 to local [EMAIL PROTECTED] snip Aug 18 05:35:32 dookie qmail: 1092803732.535421 end msg 2018 The original e-mail looks to have been ~6.5kB. Here is my .qmail, which runs SpamAssassin on the incoming e-mail for this account: |/usr/local/bin/spamassassin | /usr/local/bin/maildir /home/jon/Maildir/ #./Maildir/ I'm inclined to blame SpamAssassin since I saw a similar problem when I had it misconfigured before - that was easy to track down since it wrote error messages in the system log left (missing p5 package). This time there are no error messages, and the problem only occurs very occasionally. Has anyone else seen this before? Any clues on what could be going wrong? Disabling SpamAssassin would make e-mail unusable since I get hundreds of spam e-mails a day.
