Yes, that sounds right... I remember that when I followed my exact same instuctions on a new server, that it had these problems. Forgot about that. I agree it is a problem with CygWin version.
I did notice some compiling issues with PERL 5.8 as well (even on the older, stable CygWin versions)... So I always installed PERL 5.6.1. Thanks for jogging my memory. The working CygWin version would be before March 2004 or so (when I had did that fresh install that had the same problems as you). The install I did in November 2003 worked fine. - Jason ----- Original Message ----- From: Robert Lacroix +ADw-rl+AEA-belacove.com+AD4- Subject: RE: Cygwin SA3.0 Problems Date: Thu, 30 Sep 2004 11:13:06 -05:00 It's definitely a problem with spamd, spamc running in cygwin had the same problems as spamcpp, winspamc and my own custom spamc in .NET. SpamD just sets the FIN flag before having sent the entire message. Luckily I had an old Cygwin installation with Perl 5.8.0 where I just installed SA3 and now the problem is gone on all machines. So it definitely has something to do with any cygwin package version involved. Any ideas which one :) ? /robert -----Original Message----- From: Jason J.

Perhaps the problem is not with SpamD, but with SpamC. I noticed that the new SA3.0 doesn't always fill the incoming TCP for your SpamC calling application buffer... I use 1024 byte buffers. This may be throwing whichever SpamC you are using into confusion as it takes a non-full buffer to mean that this is the last packet for the email results. I use the new Content-length header as a check for message completeness... I wrote my own custom SpamC in .NET as a plug-in for XMail and stopped having those issues you are having. I seem to remember having some issues with WinSpamC (on sourceforge.net) not getting the entire emails either.... but had pretty good luck with the SpamC compiled in CygWin. Feel free to email me directly. I'm happy to help where I can. ------------------------------------------------------------ Jason J Ellingson Technical Consultant 615.301.1682 : nashville 612.605.1132 : minneapolis www.ellingson.com jason+AEA-ellingson.com
