Hi,

I have just installed "Outbound Antispam" extension. Since I can't send any e-mail.

Code:

smtpd_milters = inet:localhost:12768 unix:/ctmilter/ctmilter.sock

The Mail server configuration I have already repaired/rebuilded (mchk --with-spam).

License for "parallels-premium-outbound-antispam-unix" exists.
Parallels Plesk Panel v11.5.30_build115130819.13 os_Debian 6.0 / Update #28

Has anyone an idea?

Try to modify /etc/postfix/main.cf file with following way:

#smtpd_milters = inet:localhost:12768 unix:/ctmilter/ctmilter.sock
#non_smtpd_milters = inet:localhost:12768 unix:/ctmilter/ctmilter.sock
smtpd_milters = inet:localhost:12768
non_smtpd_milters = inet:localhost:12768

Based on the above it appears that the socket connection is not being established so you are forcing it to use the "inet" port instead of having a choice between "inet" and "socket" which fails.
 
When I removed "unix:/ctmilter/ctmilter.sock", no emails will be filtered and Protection is off.

That is not the purpose of the extension, to turn it off, if it doesn't work!

Problem solved.

Code:
~ # postconf -n | grep smtpd_milters
non_smtpd_milters = inet:localhost:12768 unix:ctmilter/ctmilter.sock
smtpd_milters = inet:localhost:12768 unix:ctmilter/ctmilter.sock
No / after unix:


How can i remove/hide the following email header?
Code:
X-CTCH-SenderID: 127.0.0.1
X-CTCH-SenderID-TotalMessages: 1
X-CTCH-SenderID-TotalSpam: 0
X-CTCH-SenderID-TotalSuspected: 0
X-CTCH-SenderID-TotalBulk: 0
X-CTCH-SenderID-TotalConfirmed: 0
