    Default Exim System Filter Error

    I am showing the following error message in the exim log and not sure what is causing it and where it is coming from. It does not appear to be causing any issues, but not sure where to look to fix the error message.

    Error in system filter: unknown filtering command "and" near line 87 of filter file

    The system filter usually points to /etc/antivirus.exim, have you changed the contents of that file?

    After an automated cPanel update last week, a few services failed to restart. I had the services re-installed but I still keep getting an email each hour with the following:

    I had SpamAssassin re-installed and I also re-installed Exim but I still get an email each hour with the above. I disabled the cPanel automated installs a few days ago because every night that it would run, it would cause the ftpd service to fail. However, this email that I receive every hour is really aggravating me. Is it possible that the issue that I am experiencing is similar to the error message that you are getting? If so, is there a fix for this?

    The spamd message is from chkservd's monitoring of spamd.

    Is there a fix for this? I never received this email before and it tells me that autolearn=failed so the chkservd doesn't like something. Every time that it checks (every hour) is triggers an automated security violation email. I have reinstalled both SpamAssassin and Exim but I can't seem to fix this problem. Any ideas?

    There seems to be some modifications to your system that are causing this issue. You'll need to submit a support ticket to have it resolved.
