outgoing mails copy

[anand]

Hi anand,

These worked out well for me. Thanks for the samples.



Mike

Glad to know it helped.

In regards to those who are getting dulplicate copies of emails.

It might be because you are forwarding to the same domain.
Exim processes the original outgoing email and them the forwarded email as well.

Setting the forwarding email to a different domain or one that isn't gonna be catched by the EXIM rule that you've put in place will help you avoid the duplicate.

Hope that helps.

regarding duplicates of outgoing e-mails, the problem only happens when the reciever domain is on the same server, in which case the filter kicks in twice, once when the message is being sent and the second time when its being delivered to reciever domain on the same sever.

a simple way to prevent this is to change the filters as follows:

if first_delivery
   and ("$h_to:, $h_cc:" contains "@domain.com")
then
   unseen deliver "incoming@domain.com"
endif

if first_delivery
   and ("$h_from:" contains "@domain.com")
   and not ("$h_X-Spam-Checker-Version:" begins "SpamAssassin")
then    
   unseen deliver "outgoing@domain.com"
endif

this prevents the duplicate delivery to outgoing@domain.com since the original sent message should not contain any spamassassin headers.

When SpamAssassin is enabled, we are getting duplicates of copied e-mails to the monitor box, the code in the above post doesn't work either.

Anyone have any ideas?

[Man0warr]

figured it out, added the bold part

if first_delivery
and ("$h_to:, $h_cc:" contains "@domain.com")
and not ("$h_X-Spam-Checker-Version:" begins "SpamAssassin")
then
unseen deliver "monitor@domain.com"
endif

if first_delivery
and ("$h_from:" contains "@domain.com")
and not ("$h_X-Spam-Checker-Version:" begins "SpamAssassin")
then
unseen deliver "monitor@domain.com"
endif

I'm also looking to copy incoming/outgoing emails for a specific domain.

In cPanel v11, there is no "antivirus.exim", i believe the system_filter is now /etc/cpanel_exim_system_filter.

Is that the correct place to put the suggested lines?

[secretreal]

i add lines to file and restart exim but it doesnt work can anybody help me ?

Hi All,

I have been trying all night to get this working. Using the filters was my first thought as everyone has suggested. I have implemented many different versions of the filters, your and mine and I can only get the filters to apply to incoming message!! Any one got any ideas.

For referance to the above comment, I have dug around in my exim.conf and I am discovered that the routers are now using local filters in /etc/vfilters

[busbyam]

Okay so local domain filter don't work but if you place the in cpanel_exim_system_filters all works fine

Hi,

I need to get this working on Cpanel 11, Can you please tell me where in cpanel_exim_system_filters do we need to insert the codes and what codes have you
entered to get this working ?

Any help would be really helpful.

Thanks once again.

[furquan]

I tried to enter the below code at the end of "/cpanel_exim_system_filter", But did not work.

if first_delivery
and ("$h_to:, $h_cc:" contains "@domain.com")
or ("$h_from:" contains "@domain.com")
then
unseen deliver "all-catcher@domain.com"
endif

Can any one here let me know where exactly these lines have to be put ?

[StevenD]

This does work in cpanel_exim_system_filter

but the file seems to have a tendency to get rewritten to std by cpanel

where is a good place to put the code that it doesn't get overwritten

Steven

[StevenD]

cpanel_exim_system_filter got replaced again on me last night on a std auto cpanel update

Does anyone know how to add this code, or where to add it, into a file or included file that isn't replaced by updates??

We added '/etc/cpanel_exim_system_filter_custom' as the System Filter File in WHM under Exim Configuration Editor, which adds

system_filter=/etc/cpanel_exim_system_filter_custom

to our exim.conf, and then put our custom filters there. That file does not get overwritten.
