Similar functionality to the one described above can be added to Sendmail with a milter. Anyway, you surely can't be using the program you sent. It doesn't even build here: giorgos@gothmog[11:31]/tmp/mxcheck$ cc -O2 -ggdb check.c check.c: In function `filtervalidmail': check.c:443: error: syntax error at end of input giorgos@gothmog[11:31]/tmp/mxcheck$ _ > PS - this is how i use it: > .qmail-file: > > | /usr/local/bin/check /usr/local/bin/safecat /path/to/Maildir/tmp > /path/to/Maildir/new > > #the above after | is on a single line. Putting aside the facts that the source is entirely undocumented, that it doesn't even build, that it has a million style bugs, that the comments aren't really helpful in understanding how it works, and that it's entirely undocumented... - What does each one of these parameters exactly do? - What is safecat and why is it run with a full pathname? - Why are you using an internal Maildir/ path like 'tmp'? - Does this work in a .forward file too? I know, I know that RTFS for such a small program documentation is most of the time unnecessary for the experienced hacker, but IMHO this is something that simple FreeBSD users might want to install too. Without any sort of documentation or other hint about the way it works, you don't really expect anyone to run this or do you? :-/ - Giorgos _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-security To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
