    Hello,

    I am trying to run PDFInfo plugin with SA 3.1.7. SA registers the
    plugin successfully but does not scan the PDFs in the emails.
    According to Dallas Engelken (Creator of PDFInfo) , The MIME parser
    in SA is not seeing a PDF attachment on this message.

    Has anyone tried running PDFInfo plugin with 3.1.7 version?

Hi, after having good results in the beginning
with pdfinfo ,
no one of the following pdf spam was catched/marked

i am now using
clam and Sanesecurity to eleminate pdf spam.

It seems that the pdf spam mutates so fast
that the recent concept of   PDFInfo plugin
isnt enough to catch/mark, so i think a solution like fuzzy ocr is
needed here

Spam in other attach file types ( doc etc ) may follow soon.

That is what concerns me more, if I start opening up every attached file, parsing out text, parsing out images (so I can parse out the text) and then running SA against everything I parse out, it's gonna get hairy real fast. I can absolutely see doc, rtf, etc coming next.

Considering we deal with more PDF and Doc Ham than PDF and Doc spam, it will become a major resource hog fast. I don't want to being running plugins extracting text and images from docs, then text from images from docs, on 40,000+ messages a day.

There has to be a better way.

Veterans?

Maybe they forgot who made that choice possible.
