*check_basicheaders_rfc* Checks headers From and Date, assures non-empty body.
Check Basic Headers RFC is based on the plugin check_basicheaders by Jim Winstead Jr. It is extended with my policy to die on startup due to config errors and it returns DENY for a malformed date. The module requires the Perl module Date::Parse and relies on Date::Parse::str2time returning undef for a malformed date. Motivation: I received spam mails with malformed date headers, which went through the original plugin, because it returns only DECLINED, if the result of Date::Parse::str2time is undef - e.g.: Date: Mon, 11 Sep 2028 25:16:04 +0900 Date: , 33 Aug 2007 -04:43:52 -0500 Date: Mon, 34 Aug 2007 18:49:17 +0200 Date: Tue, 35 Aug 2007 25:57:08 +0900 Date: Wed, 36 Aug 2007 22:57:25 +0000 See http://dienstleistung-kultur.de/qpsmtpd/check_basicheaders_rfc.shtml Sincerely, Ernesto
