The only checks that reject mail from master are those generated automatically with a Sober or whatever virus in the attachment, and among those only the ones that had such a huge hit that my virus scanners couldn't cope anymore, so I extracted a typical line from the Base64 string and use postfix's body_checks now. I don't think I will change this, because master does relay those (still) at an unacceptable rate, so I need to protect my virus scanners. The solution, as you pointed out, is to tighten the policy of master's SMTP acceptance. -- Please do not send copies of list mail to me; I read the list! .''`. martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> : :' : proud Debian developer, admin, user, and author `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system Invalid/expired PGP subkeys?
