Hi Don and all,
I've CC'ed to the xmail mailing list because I belive is of interest
for Xmailserver users also:
Lateley I've encountered some problems sending messages to gmail and
some other constipated configured qmail servers after I've configured
sa_filter for both incoming and outgoing messages, the error message
recevied by postmaster said that maximum delivery atempts have been
reched and that's it !!!
Puzzled I send another mail and searched the spool directory and
here is what I've got in the coresponding slog file:
[PeekTime] 1089333936 : Fri, 9 Jul 2004 03:45:36 +0300
<<
ErrCode = -162
ErrString = End of socket stream data
SMAIL SMTP-Send MX = "gsmtp171.google.com." SMTP = "mircea.interplus.ro"
>From = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" To = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" Failed !
SMTP-Error = "451 Read stray <LF>, must use <CR><LF>, see RFC 2821"
SMTP-Server = "gsmtp171.google.com."
>>
<<

SMAIL SMTP-Send MX = "gsmtp57.google.com." SMTP = "mircea.interplus.ro"
From = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" To = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" Failed !
SMTP-Error = "451 Read stray <LF>, must use <CR><LF>, see RFC 2821"
SMTP-Server = "gsmtp57.google.com."

So it seem that somehow the message was altered and sure enough the
spool message that was processed by Spam Assassin via sa_filter was
having the whole headers section without <CR>s, all were gone :(.
Running a stupid unix2dos over the spool rsnd file unlocked it and it
arrived ok on gmail servers.
Spam Assassin is 2.60 and sa_filter release is 1.3, even that the
sa_filter.pl itself this is tagged as sa_filter.pl,v 1.5 2003/10/02. I
belive that this bug can be quite easy corrected with some lovely Perl
line that looks like modem noise ;) and will repair the mangled hedear
lines but unfortunately my perl expertise is way under that necessary to
repair such a script, can any perl wizzards have a look over it and make
me happy with a fix, it seem that this gmail check is more and more
comon this day.
Thank you and best regards,
Mircea Ciocan
