simscan and outlook issue
Simscan issues with outlook
We had installed qmail with clamav , spamassassin & simscan. The mails are
sending and receiving fine in webmail. But when we try to send mails by outlook the mail is not going to sent items. Its remaining in outbox but
the mails are delivering fine. Whenever i click send/receive button in outlook
the mails are sending every time but still the mail resides in the "Outbox" of the outlook. But when i try to send the same using the THUNDER BIRD email client everything functions well .
Error Message from the outlook.
The SMTP server returned an error. Subject 'test', Account: 'qmail.abtinfo.com', Server: 'qmail.abtinfo.com', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: 'simscan:[25194]:RELAYCLIE NT:0.0486s :-:118.91. 233.14ostm aster@qmai l.abtinfo. com:abtonl ine@gmail. com', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC60
When simscan gets deactivated the mails there is no issue in outlook . But the purpose of simscan does not functions.
How to fix it?
Can anybody help me

Hi,
We have added the command line to the following file. Is it the correct file. or give us the correct file to
put the command line.
vi /var/qmail/supervise/qmail -smtp/run
#!/bin/sh
QMAILQUEUE="/var/qmail/bin /simscan"; export QMAILQUEUE
SIMSCAN_DEBUG=0 tcpserver -vR -l etc. etc. etc. etc.
QMAILDUID=`id -u vpopmail`
NOFILESGID=`id -g vpopmail`
MAXSMTPD=`cat /var/qmail/control/concurr encyincomi ng`
LOCAL=`head -1 /var/qmail/control/me`
if [ -z "$QMAILDUID" -o -z "$NOFILESGID" -o -z "$MAXSMTPD" -o -z "$LOCAL" ]; then
echo QMAILDUID, NOFILESGID, MAXSMTPD, or LOCAL is unset in

exit 1
fi
if [ ! -f /var/qmail/control/rcpthos ts ]; then
echo "No /var/qmail/control/rcpthos ts!"

Hi
As far as I understand, with simscan you will have to hack the code yourself to avoid the problem, as said in the first comment:
I have also found some people had to hack the code to make it stop sending messages to the SMTP conversation. if the above does not work, you may need to try that:
http://osdir.com/ml/mail.qmail.simscan/2006-06/msg00003.html
I did not see yet the result from that recommendation.

Unfortunately with QMail a lot of patches have to be applied to make it current and work with great add-ons
In this case the add on needs code hacking. I hope in the future this may not bee needed now that QMail has been put into the Open Source, but meanwhile a lot of bug hunting is usually done by each patch user.
This said, since we point to the solution here, I would recommend PAQ this question. Either with or without points refund. (I personally believe I put the user into the right track)

now to avoid this problem, it looks like simscan has a variable it needs to check:
SIMSCAN_DEBUG=0
if it is not in your startup script please add it as
export SIMSCAN_DEBUG=0
If that does still not work, you can try adding it to the command line starting the smtp service, something like
SIMSCAN_DEBUG=0 tcpserver -vR -l etc. etc. etc. etc.
