Hi,

beside of the problem, I already mentioned here (without getting any  
help),
I encountered today a real big problem:

Soem very huge Mails (about 2 MB) coming in, will be investigated by spamc  
(2.20), which is breaking after a few seconds because mail is too big (>  
25k). But then, the spamass-milter timout in sendmail works after 12  
minutes (!) and the mail seems not be be delivered, so the sender tries it  
again some minutes later. But on the other hand, the mail is recieved  
indeed and my users get such mails again and again and again (bad luck!?).

I can't use spamc/spamd on procmail, as we use sendmail for forwarding  
mails to a very specific software, not having classical unix user accounts  
and no local delivering.

spamass-milter seems to be buggy (0.1.1), or at least doesn't work  
together properly with sendmail 8.12.3 and spamassassin 2.20, but I don't  
get any answer form there project site.

I'd like to use spamc together with amavis, which I've got running without  
problems (antivir)

So what possibilities are left?

Have you got any hint for debugging this problem?

Thank you

Andreas

ah: I still have no idea what to do against the problem I already  
mentioned:
-------------------------------

I'm using spamassassin 2.20 on linux / sendmail 8.12.3,
sitewide with spamass-milter (0.1.1).

Nearly everytime, spamc contacts spamd, I get a logline

... spamd[....]: bad protocol: header error: (closed before headers)

I also use milter-amavis without problems.
People from spamass-milter seems to be very quiet at the moment; I got no  
answer from them.

I wonder, if nobody else gets this problems.

What can I do? Where do I have to search for the error?
(of course - behind the keyboard, I know ;-)

Well - spamassassin works fine, as far as I can see, but I also had  
problems with large mails (on earlier spamassassin version and earlier  
sendmail version)  which were taken by sendmail and spamassassin, but not  
really, so the sender tried it again and again and my users got really  
huge amounts of the same mail. If this happens again, I will inform you.

cu
Andreas
