Mail not fully scanned

["A.Hachmann" <pu...@thesofa.de>]

Hello,
I tried to install Spamassassin 3.0.1
When I start the Spamd spamc does not fully scan the Mail. It does not
add its header and does not rate the 
mail.

In the logfile i can see the following messages.

Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1/mail/SpamAssassin/Message/Node.pm line
119

As You can see, I have the perl version that seems to have some problems
as described in the INSTALL

But how do I go on now. How can I fix this problem.

Is the fact, that spamassassin does not rate the mails, due to this Perl
problem?

Thanks,
      Alexander

Does this happen on all mails or just specific ones?  Do you have custom
plugins loaded or is the install a default one?  Line 119 is checking out the
content-type of a message part, and no parts of that line should ever be able
to be undef.  So either there's some strange malformed message that's causing
that (bug), or there's a custom plugin/patch which is calling the function
with an undef value (bug in that code not SA).

Try 3.04 instead. Even if it does not have THAT problem fixed it does
have a host of other problems including a DoS vulnerability repaired.
