I have a server that performs a backup of a PostgreSQL database with pg_dump, piping the output through bzip, uuencode and mail so that the dump gets e-mailed to my account. Since converting to SA I've noticed a lack of these daily backups...
Further investigation shows that the e-mail, which consists of only a subject and attachment, is sent and received properly. I verified that by watching the transfer during fetchmail. It mentioned that there were 5 e-mails, and transferred 5, including the one that contained the 382005 tuple message with e-mail attachment. Once the mail passes through SA, I see that I have only 4 messages. Once I scan through the 4 messages, I'll find the missing message as a part of the one prior to it; that is, the email is embedded in its predecessor. So, if the attachment in on message 2, message 2 (with attachment) will be embedded within message 1. This doesn't happen EVERY time, just most of the time. If the message is sent by itself then it comes through just fine. Here is the interesting section of the e-mails as copied via a :0 c recipe in procmailrc prior to the mail being passed to spamd: (IP addresses and server names have been changed) Any ideas what I need to do to fix this?
