[Bug 6792] New: Spamassassin not parsing info to exim

https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=6792

             Bug #: 6792
           Summary: Spamassassin not parsing info to exim
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 3.3.2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: FreeBSD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: spamc/spamd
        AssignedTo: dev@spamassassin.apache.org
        ReportedBy: ljswan@mweb.co.za

The spam message

Hi,

We are running exim-4.77 on our mx layer and SpamAssassin Server version 3.3.2
on another layer. All exim services connect to spamd on the spam layer via a
load balancer. 

We started receiving the following spam message - see attached and then we got
the following errors in the exim panic.log which we could directly associate
with these mails. 

Apr 18 16:03:00 XXXXXX exim[85379]: 2012-04-18 16:03:00 1SKVTH-000MD5-Fy spam
acl condition: error reading from spamd socket: Connection reset by peer
Apr 18 16:03:00 XXXXXX exim[85379]: 2012-04-18 16:03:00 1SKVTH-000MD5-Fy spam
acl condition: error reading from spamd socket: Connection reset by peer  

Exim will send the mail off to spamd(783) who will score it and add headers. If
the score is higher than 8.2 as per Spammassassin, exim uses that response to
set the following variable(acl_m_spam) to spam. Later on it the router section
in exim we use that variable to drop/pass the mail.
Now it does add headers to the exim mail as below, but exim does not receive a
score it can use and there is nothing in the spam-assassin logs to indicate
that it dealt with that mail at all. All there is, is the headers in the mail,
the panic log entries and the mail that is now being delivered when it should
be dropped as spam.

Apr 18 16:03:00 XXXXXX exim[85379]: 2012-04-18 16:03:00 1SKVTH-000MD5-Fy
ANTISPAM: EF=<ad...@nondafleg.com> SF=' "*Credit-Rating-"
<ad...@nondafleg.com> ' RT=<an...@mweb.co.za> SH=65.111.175.57
SPAM_SCORE=9.8
REPORT=BAYES_00=-1.9,DCC_CHECK=6,HELO_MISMATCH_COM=0.553,RCVD_IN_PSBL=2.7,RDNS_NONE=0.793,URIBL_DBL_SPAM=1.7

It would appear that the large message body size is causing Spamd to either
crash or to time-out as indicated in the panic log so that it does not parse
the complete info to exim for use. So message headers are added and received
but not the rest of the info.

Thanks 
Leons

This is not a discussion list.  This is a bug system.  Nothing you have posted
indicates a bug but rather administrative configuration issues better discussed
on users.

This does not sound like a bug.  It sounds like a configuration issue that
should be discussed on the SA users mailing list and the exim users mailing
list.

Hi Kevin

Just a question or two? 

If this was a configuration issue where would the config problem be and why
does it work in some cases and others not and why would it only occur when Spam
assassin is under load? Please understand I am not trying to be difficult I am
trying to understand as to what is going on.

Thanks 
Leon
