Bad Header warning

Dear All,

I have set the following configuration in amavisd.conf to
pass bad 
header mails to the local users.

$final_bad_header_destiny = D_PASS;


But still, some of the mails coming to our mail server are
quarantined 
with out delivering mails to users' mail boxes.

It gives the following error message.

WARNING: bad headers - MIME error: error: part did not end
with 
expected  boundary

Do you have any idea why this mails are not delivered to the
user mail 
box?

Regards
Chaminda Indrajith

Which version of amavisd-new?
Show the log, increase the log level if necessary (at least
2 or 3).

The $final_bad_header_destiny=D_PASS does not prevent
quarantining, it
only controls forwarding; quarantining has its own
independent controls.
Are you sure the message was not delivered? Perhaps it was
blocked
for some other reason (spam, virus, rejected by MTA, ...).

Hello List,
i have one Problem with Amavis-new -2.5.3 (20071212)

Sometimes Mails were truncated . They ends within MailText
or in the 
Boundary  following error
occurs in the system log.


WARN: MIME::Parser error: part did not end with expected
boundary
local delivery: <> ->
<bad-header-quarantine>, 
mbx=/var/spool/amavis/virusmails/p/badh-pOfGDm2s-McE

I have set in the amavis.conf :
$final_bad_header_destiny = D_PASS;
bypass_header_checks_maps = 1;


The Mails were truncated via Amavis. If i turn off amavis
and send this 
messages they were passed trough.

Check the quarantined message. The MIME::Parser makes its
judgement quite reliably, so it can be believed that the
MIME structure of a message is indeed truncated or garbled.

Are you saying that with amavisd the message does not come
through? Most unlikely, since you have the 
  $final_bad_header_destiny = D_PASS;

But yes, the message _is_ quarantined - which does
not say that it is not passed to recipients as well.
You may turn off bad header quarantining if you like.

> What can i do to turn of those tests completlely

amavisd doesn't truncate messages. It must be something
else,
perhaps it is a bounce from a MTA containing a truncated
part
of the original message, so the (bounce) message is already
truncated when generated.
