    i tried that, but had unexpected results. i get no error message, but /usr/libexec/postfix/master never starts up after. watchdog seemed to reload all services during one of my tests with the edited script.

    i’m a little confused on what adds the line postfix:respawn:/usr/libexec/postfix/master to /etc/watchdog.conf? meaning, if this line is present during startup, the postfix startup item will complain that it has failed to start, so i always need to comment that line out in watchdog manually everytime i need to reboot the server, then periodic daily will add the line if it’s commented out or not present in /etc/watchdog.conf at 3:15 am, so why wouldn’t postfix master start if this script is in daily.local?

    after a couple of days sieve is running nice, but i am getting a new error in my logs:
    slapd[20491]: Parameter Error in cyrus_sasl/lib/plugin_common.c near line 409

    anyone know what this is?

    i suspected that, but if i delete all sieve scripts – my mailboxes will automatically sync every 5 minutes again.

    i have sieve setup and running, but i have 2 questions.

    after setting up some basic filters with avelsieve, mostly basic “file into folder” filters, i am finding mail.app needs to be manually synchronized to see any new mail… mail.app ignores the 5 minute check. is there a way to fix this?

    i had BerkeleyDB.4.2 installed already, but sieve seems to look for BerkeleyDB.4.1… anyway to use BerkeleyDB.4.2 instead?

    thanks

    i noticed this yesterday and installed the latest version 0.80 without problems.

    first uninstall clamav 0.7.x –
    make uninstall
    make distclean
    i would also delete the old databases in /usr/share/clamav or /usr/local/share/clamav, depending on your installation.

    download the newest version 0.8.x
    ./configure –prefix=/usr –mandir=/usr/share/man –sysconfdir=/etc
    make
    sudo make install

    note: take a look in the /docs/macosx/ also Smile

    i would say that the apple article is a bit dated and there seems to be a new one here: http://developer.apple.com/server/virusfiltering.html

    but, it seems you haven’t done any footwork because there is a very good article on this site about installing spamassassin, amavis, and clamav. i wouldn’t waste your time on trying to get razor to work.

    i would suggest following joel’s article, apple’s new article and when you run into problems, search google, join some mailing lists… and yes it will work, but what do i know 🙂

    if you want a web-based gui to do this sort of stuff with postfix, have a look at webmin.

    you can accomplish this with a alias in postfix.

    for example:

    group: [email protected], [email protected], etc…

    take a look at man aliases to find out more.

    yes, it is a group folder created using sudo creategroupfolder. nothing funky…

    okay, i changed the group folder to user home directory… it now appears under /Network/Servers/ but i’m still seeing the same problems 🙁

    i browse /Network/Library – correct folders displayed, go to /Network/Servers/my.server.com/Groups – correct folder displayed -> back to /Network/Library – contents of group folder appears??? /Network/Server/Users/MyUsers display groups folder as well!

    it seems that i can only use one automount at a time…

    i was looking in the wrong place… it’s not in /etc/amavisd.conf

    if you want to add the X-Spam-Checker-Version header, just uncomment these lines in /usr/bin/amavisd:

    # $hdr_edits->append_header(‘X-Spam-Checker-Version’,
    # sprintf("SpamAssassin %s (%s) on %s",
    # Mail::SpamAssassin::Version(),
    # $Mail::SpamAssassin::SUB_VERSION, $myhostname));
