Plesk 9.2.1 & Qmail Scanner - Unable to open pipe

[mrhankey_ch]

Hello,

I updated my plesk 9.0.1 to 9.2.1 yesterday.
First, I was really happy as it goes smoothly and everything was up and running after the update!

Then, I realized that greylisting was directly available into Plesk: wonderfull!
So, I removed qgreylist, and enabled the plesk integration.

I can receive my emails, but I noted this error in my maillog:

Apr 29 09:21:22 myhost greylisting filter[5641]: Starting greylisting filter...
Apr 29 09:21:22 myhost qmail-queue-handlers[5640]: handlers_stderr: DEFER

Note that I even chmoded /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue.orig to 777, and even run again qmail-scanner-reconfigure ...
The error still shows up, and it only seems to happen when there is the greylisting filter before.

Any idea?
Thanks!

Any news about this problem?
I noted that after the "DEFER", the concerned mail don't show up again in the maillog... So, it seems that those emails got lost?!

Should I switch back to the usual qgreylist and forget about the greylist plesk integration?

[faris]

I'm a bit concerned about the mention of /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue.orig

At a guess I would say that's a backup copy that was made at some point.

But maybe this is normal with qgraylist or something? It just seems very odd.

Hello,

same problem here

[mrhankey_ch]

I personnaly switched off the greylist implementation of Plesk and installed again qgreylist.
It works with no errors and there's much more visibility in the maillogs!

how can I do that ?

[albans]

Simply uncheck the greylist box in the spam-filter settings (server wide, in Plesk).
After that, do a "yum install qgreylist" (from ART), and you're ready!

[CrK01]

thanks I was working hard yesterday and I didn't saw that

It's a good way to maintain qgreylist from ART repo and Spamdyke toghether ?

[albans]

I never used Spamdyke... But I think that it's not necessary to have both qgreylist and spamdyke installed, as spamdyke include greylisting??!

[CrK01]

Yes that's true spamdyke includes qgreylist, so the question is qgreylist or spamdyke ? I like both

I have other problem, my outgoing mails are tagged ar spam or got high SA Scores when they go out ( minimum 4 points ! ):

[albans]

Hmmm very strange... I don't really know what's going on...
You should check the rules (in the email headers) that get your spam score to 4.
Personnaly, I use the official spamassassin from plesk, and qmail-scanner is only scanning files for viruses with clamd. So, spam checking is not executed on outgoing emails.

[CrK01]

The only problem is that I have nothing in my mail headers

I also want that configuration, how are you configured to not filter outgoing mails ?

EDIT:

I reinstall psa-spamassassin, stop the service, do a qmail-scanner-reconfigure , start psa-spamassassin service and that's IT

THe only thing is that in plesk 8.6 I have qmail-scanner-reconfigure with psa-spamassassin and no problems

[albans]

Yep that's right, you've to execute the qmail-scanner-reconfigure when the spamassassin service is stopped.
Or else, it'll double-check your emails for spam!

[CrK01]

perfect that's all , but I remember that in plesk 8.6 I could do a double scan without problems ( qmail-scanner-reconfigure with PSA-SA together )

thanks,
