i have a perlfilter script (virus scanner via amavis) running on two mailservers and i was unable to make perlfilters work other than with the perlfilter-mode set to "all" (file etc/filters/perlfilter-mode). the symptoms were as you described and up to now i do not have a solution for that problem (which for me isn't a problem any more because i want all mail going through my servers to be scanned anyway).

cheers alex

Well, after a rather lengthy break from playing with things, I finally have some time to poke around with perlfilter stuff... But I can't seem to get it working.

Basically, I created a copy of the sample script and put it at:

/usr/lib/courier/share/perlfilter-test.pl

(basically, I just wanted to see if it would work, so I added a little code to print some junk to a temp file)

I then put that path into /etc/courier/filters/perlfilter and did a `filterctl start perlfilter` - perlfilter is now running.

However, when I send messages to myself, or have someone from outside my network do so, I don't get any information printed to my temp file - it's like my filter isn't getting executed.

I've followed the man info as best as I can tell, so what am I doing wrong?
