Hello,
Thanks for your reply. My initial theory was that the attachment was
being stripped out of the message before it got to Amavis, hence asking
here on the Postfix list. I will ask on the Amavis list in that case.
Cheers,
Alex.

Hello,
Environment :
- Ubuntu - 10.04.3 LTS
- Postfix - 2.7.0-1ubuntu0.2
- Amavis - 1:2.6.4-1ubuntu5
- Spam Assassin - 3.3.1-1
- ClamAV - 0.96.5+dfsg-1ubuntu1.10.04.3
Symptoms - A couple of emails per day come through the system with
empty attachments. They have the following line in their header:
X-Amavis-Alert: BAD HEADER SECTION, MIME error: error: part did not
end with expected boundary
This is the postfix users mailing list; perhaps you should ask this on
an amavisd-new related list.
- I have not been able to reproduce the problem myself
- Problematic mails re-sent often come through without problem, ie
with the attachment
- The offending mails generate ClamAV quarentine files, but even
these don't contain the attachments
- If I receive the same emails at a different account on an unrelated
system I see the attachment perfectly well
- We see the same issue from a number of unrelated senders
Please see the welcome message you received when joining this list on
how to receive help:
http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#mail
Sample header (anonymised):
We'd need to see the output of postconf -n, and a relevant section of
the mail log, at minimum.
