Judging from your response, I may be wrong in what I need to do:
Basically I'm having a few errors in my Exim logs from legitamate senders
not coming through:
===========
2010-03-31 01:22:25 1Nwlbc-0001QS-Ua H=
host81-136-197-86.in-addr.btopenworld.com (mail.duke.tv) [81.136.197.86] F=<
l...@dukeandearl.com> temporarily rejected after DATA
===========
And after checking my SA logs:
===========
Mar 31 01:25:51 mailserver spamd[5379]: spamd: result: . -4 -
GENESIS_PHONENUMBER07 *scantime=300.0,size=24337*,
user=nobody,uid=8,required_score=3.2,rhost=localhost,raddr=127.0.0.1,rport=42308,mid=<
c7d27527.8a78%l...@dukeandearl.com <c7d27527.8a78%25l...@dukeandearl.com>
>,autolearn=unavailable
==========
I'm trying to understand why is it taking 300.0 seconds to scan a message
only 24Kb in size??
I'm begeining to think that because SA is taking so long to scan the
message, it is timing out
and hence Exim returning a "temporarily reject after DATA".
My thoughs so far is to perhaps reducing the file size that SA takes to scan
and see if the scan time reduces.
I may be wrong in my troublshooting methods but I'm not sure why this is
happeninig at present.
Many Thanks
