That is what has me puzzled and why I sent this message to the list hoping for a little insight.

To test the scanning for both incoming and outgoing email I send a message to an outside address that is set to forward back to me. Therefore the message should get scanned, leave our server, go to the remote server then bounce back to our server and be scanned a second time. But when I look at the headers of the test message there is only one "Received: " qmail-scanner entry (the inbound one) when there should be two. Now, if I modify my tcp.smtp file so that 127. sets QMAILQUEUE to /var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue.pl, rebuild the cdb, then the test messages now have two qmail-scanner Recieved: headers as expected. -- Ed. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Qmail-scanner-general mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/qmail-scanner-general
