strange entries in log
Hello,
I just notice that I have many time the same strange line in my spamd
log. Anyone have an idea about this?
SpamAssassin Server version 3.2.5
log entries:
Sep 16 18:08:06 myhostname spamd[2008]:
s-female-silhouettes-beverages-film-hearts-music-notes-and-thea...
Sep 16 18:08:06 myhostname spamd[2008]: truncated to 63 octets
(RFC1035 2.3.1) at /usr/lib/perl5/Net/DNS/Question.pm line 233
Thanks,
François

yes. I wonder if that was some invalid hostname/uri in mail or just
something what was misunderstood and checked (and since spammers try to hide
those, I don't object against testing anything that could be an
uri/hostname).

Thanks for the information.
If I understand correctly, an email is scan by spamassassin and in
this email, a link or a headers point to a an "invalid" domain.
Thanks,
François

No, 255 TOTAL characters, but no one component can exceed 63.

Hmm, I suppose I did get it wrong...I misunderstood the definition of label.

I am under the impression that host names are limited to 255
characters. Maybe I missed something in the RFC?

A domain name component cannot be more than 63 characters.
