Thanks, that solved the problem.
I had that entry under /etc/MailScanner/spam.lists.conf
"ORDB-RBL relays.ordb.org."
Removing/commenting it out solved the problem.
Well, that introduces another problem. Really you need to remove
ORDB-RBL from your "Spam List =" in MailScanner.conf.
the spam.lists.conf really only declares that ordb exists. The "Spam
List" setting tells MailScanner to use it.
By removing the declaration, you've disabled it, but only because
there's now a syntax error in your Spam List setting..
I hope MailScanners daily update will not revert this settings back.
I doubt any MailScanner update will do that. AFAIK ORDB hasn't been
enabled in the MailScanner default configuration for well over a year
now. (ORDB actually died in 2006) It's still in the current
spam.lists.conf, but there's a note there that it's dead to warn people
off adding it to the Spam List setting.
While we're at it.. What daily update? I've been a MailScanner user for
years and have yet to see such a thing.
Also, when you do upgrade MailScanenr versions, it generally doesn't
replace your MailScanner.conf. Instead there's that upgrade script you
have to manually run to merge new settings in. That's probably why your
still have ORDB in your config. MailScanner doesn't like over-riding
settings, so you've probably been carrying that setting forward since
you installed.
