[Mimedefang] spam coming through

[Jimmy Hayes]

I think I know whats happening, most of this e-mails are from the microsoft virus that was going around. But I noticed that I do get a attachment file from mimedefang,

	WARNING: This email message has been modified, for more information contact systems.com
An attachment named ggumx.exe was removed from this document as it
constituted a security hazard.  If you require this document, please contact
the sender and arrange an alternate means of receiving it.


So I assume it doesn't scan the e-mail since it found a blocked attachment.
Is it possible to scan it even if it has an attachment?

Thanks,

Are You sure that the spam You are receiving is coming through the mail
server on which You have MIME Defang and SpamAssassin? You might have
another old mail relay lying around that You have forgotten about, or
perhaps a misconfigured proxy...

I see it but I just don't get it on all of them for some reason.

Well, if your config is like mine and looks like this:

             my($hits, $req, $names, $report) = spam_assassin_check();

             if ($hits >= 2) {
                 my $score = '*' x ($hits > 50 ? 50 : $hits);
                 action_add_header("X-Spam-Score", "$score ($hits)");



that is why you don't see it when not marked as spam... do this instead

             my($hits, $req, $names, $report) = spam_assassin_check();
             my $score = '*' x ($hits > 50 ? 50 : $hits);
             action_add_header("X-Spam-Score", "$score ($hits)");

and it will always add to the emails.... also you can append the
SpamAssassin 
report always.. (as an attachment or something..)
