Only offered work e-mail, not personal.
I am trying to set up my e-mail but when I go on to set up my email I only get the option ' I want to use a work email account with a blackberry enterprise server'. When I do click on this it asks for an activation password. More to the point I want to be able to use a personal email, not a work email. Can anyone help?!
Do you have a BlackBerry Data Plan enabled on your account with your carrier or mobile provider?
You must, in order to get the personal email setup and RIM push email functions you are looking for, as well as addtional BlackBerry data services such as the internet browser, Facebook for BlackBerry, BlackBerry Messenger, and much more.
So, call your carrier and inquire about having the BlackBerry Data Plan added to your account.
If you are CERTAIN you have that specific data plan , please post back here.
Good luck.

Work flow mails not processing from SAP Outbox to Approvers
Hello,
We are working on the implementation of Work flow for Purchase orders.
Work flow customization is completed and even work flow is triggering when ever I create Purchase Order.
Even Agent assignment also completed for work flow tasks via T code PTFC_CHG.
Problem here is Work flow mails are not processing out of SAP Outbox to approvers even also after executing the program RSWUWFML2.
If I check in SOST,I will not see any of the entries related to work flow mails.
For eg:If I creates a Purchase order it will trigger Release Strategy and I can see the message to Approvers,like "Please Approver PO..."
Only above I can see in my SAP Outbox.
So how can I Process these messages to approvers SAP Inbox.
Any Pre Setting I have to do?
With regards,
SPKHi SP,
I may be wrong, but on reading ur thread, I feel u r mis interpreting SAP Outbox with Outlook.
Is it so, because u have mentioned about RSWUWFML2 and SOST, which comes into picture only if u r using an external mail like Outlook.
If its Outlook, then there is no doubt that ur work item would get deleted from SAP Inbox and would be present only in Outlook.
If its SAP Outbox, then u r not supposed to get ur work item in ur Outbox unless it is processed or executed thru ur SAP Inbox.
Hope it helps.

IMessage works on "Guest," not personal desktop
A few months ago I was having problems with my iPhone, and to make a long story short I ended up getting two replacement phones within a day from my local Apple store. Ever since I started using my new phone, iMessage on my MacBook Pro OS X 10.9.5 hasn't been working. I've looked through just about every thread on here trying to find a solution and I can't find one. iMessage works on the "Guest" desktop but not on my personal desktop. I've run out of ideas and have tried just about everything to fix this problem, any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Here is almost all of what I've tried:
- Repairing permissions
- Trashed related preference files
- Booting in safe mode and attempted to log in
- Created another account on my Mac and attempted to log in to iMessage/Face Time
- Reset time zone and date/time settings to "auto."
- Disabling iCloud on my computer and re-logging in
- Disabling Flash from storing data locally
- PRAM reset
- Checked my Apple ID to ensure there are no other phone numbers/emails associated
other users can not log in using their accounts. -
3 statements only 3rd works - Is this not impossible?
Hi there,
We have an overnight process which essentially does this
1. Updates a single row in table A
2. Inserts a single row into table A
3. Calls a procedure that creates multiple rows in table B
4. COMMIT
This process runs once a month and has failed to complete the last 2 months.
The odd thing is step 3 has partially worked and been commited to the database.
There is only one instance of the job that calls the procedure and we have audit records that confirm that step 3 ran when planned.
Is there any way that Oracle can think that steps 1 & 2 are successfully complete when they are not?
The only thing that has changed recently is that the client has moved the database data files onto a storage array network which has already caused some performance issues as the disk read times have been very slow.
Any thoughts?Thanks for all the suggestions.
I am in the process of re-writing the event handling as it seems to be a 'bag of spanners'
The 3 steps are within an anonymous block within a procedure and have a single WHEN-OTHERS THEN RAISE statement.
We do have an automonous transaction based process log but the WHEN-OTHERS exception handlers don't use it! That as you can guess is about to change.
The frustrating thing is that we have not been able to reproduce the error when running through debug with a copy of the live database as it was when the job failed.
All I can do I guess is improve the error handling and 'hope' that it fails again.
It didn't fail this month and all we changed was the time the process ran by 30 mins after some other jobs. -
Blackberry Maps only partly works; some features not working at all.
I have a new Curve 9360 to replace an older Curve model. Used the BB Maps app a lot for driving directions, etc. while traveling. On my new one, the Maps app loads fine and shows my current location fine. But a couple critical functions don't work at all. Anyone help me out here?
Get Directions
When I select Get Directions, nothing happens.
I should be able to enter Start and End locations, but the selection / entry screen fails to appear.
Favourites
When I select Favourites, nothing happens.
I should be able to open my list of favourite locations, routes, etc., but the selection screen fails to appear.
I've already tried removing and re-installing Maps - didn't help any. Any other ideas, thoughts, suggestions???
Cheers!Well what are you expecting those keys to do? They have very limited functions in the OS and only some keys work for doing certain things in certain programs.
That is one reason Apple and makers of Windows PC notebooks program them to do Add-On feature things like raising and lowering screen brightness or sound volume.
You can Program the function keys to do certain things in the Keyboard Applet under the Keyboard Shorcuts tab. But most built in functions using the function keys also use another modifier key like the Command/Apple key and the Option/Alt key or the Shift key. -
Gmail no longer working via Mail in Mountain Lion
Not sure what the problem is, but can only imagine ML is in some way involved.
Gmail stopped working via mail (not immediately after upgrade to ML, but a few days later).
First, kept asking for PW, which it decalred to be invalid. I tried restarting, to no avail. All was working fine via mail on iPad 2 and iPhone 4, plus no problem logging into web version of gmail.
I decided to try deleting the whole gmail account on the MBP, closing mail, and restarting, but this has now resulted in me not being allowed to set up my gmail acocunt at all, since (via SysPref) I am told the gmail username/PW is invalid, so my MBP is now completely incapable of accessing any of the family of services from gmail (incl gCal etc.). But all remains aOK via iOS / gmail via web.
Can anyone suggest a fix? I've looked around the various discussions and although some people say they are having need to try gamil tweaks now, with Mail, none of the solutions I saw seem to work for my case.
I am using the correct gmail address (i.e. there's no conflice re @googlemail vs @gmail) - this seemed to have been a problem for some people, but not in this case.Troubleshooting sending and receiving email messages

After download all e mail not listed
i only get current e mail not the ones not read yet or saving
Hi rdsfurman,
Firefox is a web browser. It displays the content of existing sites. Things like email or page contents come from the content provider. Who is your email provider? You'll probably have better luck consulting their help documentation.
Hopefully this helps! -
Dear Team ,
Initially there was no Personal HotSpot appearing on my phone , but i configured it while going in the cellular section and it appeared on the main Setting options with On/Off button and it was Working Fine , (this was mentioned in the many discussions and that fixed my Issue) , but now Suddenly the Option of Personal Hot Spot has disappeared from the Menu , I have gone to cellular , then Cellular Data to on the Personal Hot spot but there only Appears , Cellular Data & MMS
No Personal Hot Spot option is appearing or available.
i have tried following steps to fix the issue as recommended in the Apple Support community blogs, :
Reset Network settings
Hard reset
On/Off the phone
Delete the Extra Profiles.
snap shots are as follows , please fix this issue at earliest as its very disappointing and frustrating!.ThanksHello arcalan.munir,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are no longer seeing the option for Personal Hotspot on your iPhone. In this situation, Personal Hotspot may not be configured with your carrier. Please use the information in the attached article as a resource.
iOS: Understanding Personal Hotspot - Apple Support
Note: If you do not see the option for Personal Hotspot, confirm with your carrier that this feature is supported and your wireless plan is configured for Personal Hotspot. For additional troubleshooting, see this article.
Cheers,

Issue with spamassassin, now mail not working
Hi ! I installed spamtrainer almost two months ago. Been feeding the [email protected] for several weeks now , 700 emails each day at least .
There was very little improvement if none at all. Tried to add "@local_domains_maps = (1)" to amavisd.conf last night thinking it might be the problem , though no virtual domain exist. This was one of the issue on the default Amavisd config. The other one is adding the symbolic link which I already done.
Computer froze while adding the parameter "@local_domains_maps = (1)", so I manually turn off the Power Mac, then mail stopped altogether. The mails are filing up but the clients couldn't send or receive since this incidence .
FF is the maincf. and amavis.conf
All help are greatly appreciated.

# Section VIII - Debugging
#GENERAL NOTES:
# This file is a normal Perl code, interpreted by Perl itself.
# - make sure this file (or directory where it resides) is NOT WRITABLE
# by mere mortals, otherwise it represents a severe security risk!
# - for values which are interpreted as booleans, it is recommended
# to use 1 for true, and 0 or undef or '' for false.
# THIS IS DIFFERENT FROM OLDER AMAVIS VERSIONS where "no" also meant false,
# now it means true, like any nonempty string does!
# - Perl syntax applies. Most notably: strings in "" may include variables
# (which start with $ or @); to include characters @ and $ in double
# quoted strings, precede them by a backslash; in single-quoted strings
# the $ and @ lose their special meaning, so it is usually easier to use
# single quoted strings. Still, in both cases a backslash need to be doubled
# - variables with names starting with a '@' are lists, the values assigned
# to them should be lists as well, e.g. ('one@foo', $mydomain, "three");
# note the comma-separation and parenthesis. If strings in the list
# do not contain spaces nor variables, a Perl operator qw() may be used
# as a shorthand to split its argument on whitespace and produce a list
# of strings, e.g. qw( one@foo example.com three ); Note that the argument
# to qw is quoted implicitly and no variable interpretation is done within
# (no '$' variable evaluations). The #-initiated comments can not be used
# within the string. In other words, $ and # lose their special meaning
# withing a qw argument, just like within '...' strings.
# - all e-mail addresses in this file and as used internally by the daemon
# are in their raw (rfc2821-unquoted and nonbracketed) form, i.e.
# Bob "Funny" [email protected], not: "Bob \"Funny\" Dude"@example.com
# and not <"@example.com>; also: '' and not ''.
# Section I - Essential daemon and MTA settings
# $MYHOME serves as a quick default for some other configuration settings.
# More refined control is available with each individual setting further down.
# $MYHOME is not used directly by the program. No trailing slash!
#$MYHOME = '/var/lib/amavis'; # (default is '/var/amavis')
# : $mydomain serves as a quick default for some other configuration settings.
# : More refined control is available with each individual setting further down.
# : $mydomain is never used directly by the program.
$mydomain = 'cpplaw.com'; aol.com'; # (no useful default)
# Set the user and group to which the daemon will change if started as root
# (otherwise just keep the UID unchanged, and these settings have no effect):
$daemon_user = 'clamav'; # (no default; customary: vscan or amavis)
$daemon_group = 'clamav'; # (no default; customary: vscan or amavis)
# Runtime working directory (cwd), and a place where
# temporary directories for unpacking mail are created.
# (no trailing slash, may be a scratch file system)
$TEMPBASE = $MYHOME; # (must be set if other config vars use is)
#$TEMPBASE = "$MYHOME/tmp"; # prefer to keep home dir /var/amavis clean?
# $helpers_home sets environment variable HOME, and is passed as option
# 'home_dir_for_helpers' to Mail::SpamAssassin::new. It should be a directory
# on a normal persistent file system, not a scratch or temporary file system
#$helpers_home = $MYHOME; # (defaults to $MYHOME)
#$daemon_chroot_dir = $MYHOME; # (default is undef, meaning: do not chroot)
#$pid_file = "$MYHOME/amavisd.pid"; # (default is "$MYHOME/amavisd.pid")
#$lock_file = "$MYHOME/amavisd.lock"; # (default is "$MYHOME/amavisd.lock")
# set environment variables if you want (no defaults):
$ENV{TMPDIR} = $TEMPBASE; # wise, but usually not necessary
# MTA SETTINGS, UNCOMMENT AS APPROPRIATE,
# both $forward_method and $notify_method default to 'smtp:127.0.0.1:10025'

# (set host and port number as required; host can be specified

#$forward_method = 'smtp:127.0.0.1:10025'; # where to forward checked mail
#$notify_method = $forward_method; # where to submit notifications
# NOTE: The defaults (above) are good for Postfix or dual-sendmail. You MUST
# uncomment the approprate settings below if using other setups!
# SENDMAIL MILTER, using amavis-milter.c helper program:
#$forward_method = undef; # no explicit forwarding, sendmail does it by itself
# milter; option -odd is needed to avoid deadlocks
#$notify_method = 'pipe:flags=q argv=/usr/sbin/sendmail -Ac -i -odd -f ${sender} -- ${recipient}';
# just a thought: can we use use -Am instead of -odd ?
# SENDMAIL (old non-milter setup, as relay):
#$forward_method = 'pipe:flags=q argv=/usr/sbin/sendmail -C/etc/sendmail.orig.cf -i -f ${sender} -- ${recipient}';
#$notify_method = $forward_method;
# SENDMAIL (old non-milter setup, amavis.c calls local delivery agent):
#$forward_method = undef; # no explicit forwarding, amavis.c will call LDA
#$notify_method = 'pipe:flags=q argv=/usr/sbin/sendmail -Ac -i -f ${sender} -- ${recipient}';
# EXIM v3 (not recommended with v4 or later, which can use SMTP setup instead):
#$forward_method = 'pipe:flags=q argv=/usr/sbin/exim -oMr scanned-ok -i -f ${sender} -- ${recipient}';
#$notify_method = $forward_method;
# prefer to collect mail for forwarding as BSMTP files?
#$forward_method = "bsmtp:$MYHOME/out-%i-%n.bsmtp";
#$notify_method = $forward_method;
# Net::Server pre-forking settings
# You may want $max_servers to match the width of your MTA pipe
# feeding amavisd, e.g. with Postfix the 'Max procs' field in the
# master.cf file, like the '2' in the: smtp-amavis unix - - n - 2 smtp
$max_servers = 2; # number of pre-forked children (default 2)
$max_requests = 10; # retire a child after that many accepts (default 10)
$child_timeout=5*60; # abort child if it does not complete each task in n sec
# (default: 8*60 seconds)
# Check also the settings of @av_scanners at the end if you want to use
# virus scanners. If not, you may want to delete the whole long assignment
# to the variable @av_scanners, which will also remove the virus checking
# code (e.g. if you only want to do spam scanning).
# Here is a QUICK WAY to completely DISABLE some sections of code
# that WE DO NOT WANT (it won't even be compiled-in).
# For more refined controls leave the following two lines commented out,
# and see further down what these two lookup lists really mean.
#@bypass_virus_checks_acl = qw( . ); # uncomment to DISABLE anti-virus code
#@bypass_spam_checks_acl = qw( . ); # uncomment to DISABLE anti-spam code
# Any setting can be changed with a new assignment, so make sure
# you do not unintentionally override these settings further down!
# Lookup list of local domains (see README.lookups for syntax details)
# NOTE:
# For backwards compatibility the variable names @local_domains (old) and
# @local_domains_acl (new) are synonyms. For consistency with other lookups
# the name @local_domains_acl is now preferred. It also makes it more
# obviously distinct from the new %local_domains hash lookup table.
# local_domains* lookup tables are used in deciding whether a recipient
# is local or not, or in other words, if the message is outgoing or not.
# This affects inserting spam-related headers for local recipients,
# limiting recipient virus notifications (if enabled) to local recipients,
# in deciding if address extension may be appended, and in SQL lookups
# for non-fqdn addresses. Set it up correctly if you need features
# that rely on this setting (or just leave empty otherwise).
# With Postfix (2.0) a quick reminder on what local domains normally are:
# a union of domains spacified in: $mydestination, $virtual_alias_domains,
# $virtual_mailbox_domains, and $relay_domains.
@local_domains_acl = ( ".$mydomain" ); # $mydomain and its subdomains
# @local_domains_acl = qw(); # default is empty, no recipient treated as local
# @local_domains_acl = qw( .example.com );
# @local_domains_acl = qw( .example.com !host.sub.example.net .sub.example.net );
# @local_domains_acl = ( ".$mydomain", '.example.com', 'sub.example.net' );
# or alternatively(A), using a Perl hash lookup table, which may be assigned
# directly, or read from a file, one domain per line; comments and empty lines
# are ignored, a dot before a domain name implies its subdomains:
#read_hash(\%local_domains, '/var/amavis/local_domains');
#or alternatively(B), using a list of regular expressions:
# $local_domains_re = new_RE( qr'[@.]example\.com$'i );
# see README.lookups for syntax and semantics
# Section II - MTA specific (defaults should be ok)

# Here is an overall picture (sequence of events) of how pieces fit together
# (only virus controls are shown, spam controls work the same way):
# bypass_virus_checks set for all recipients? ==> PASS
# no viruses? ==> PASS
# log virus if $log_templ is nonempty
# quarantine if $virus_quarantine_to is nonempty
# notify admin if $virus_admin (lookup) nonempty
# notify recips if $warnvirusrecip and (recipient is local or $warn_offsite)
# add address extensions for local recipients (when enabled)
# send (non-)delivery notifications
# to sender if DSN needed (BOUNCE) or ($warnvirussender and D_PASS)
# virus_lovers or final_destiny==D_PASS ==> PASS
# DISCARD (2xx) or REJECT (5xx) (depending on final_*_destiny)
# Equivalent flow diagram applies for spam checks.
# If a virus is detected, spam checking is skipped entirely.
# The following symbolic constants can be used in *destiny settings:
# D_PASS mail will pass to recipients, regardless of bad contents;
# D_DISCARD mail will not be delivered to its recipients, sender will NOT be
# notified. Effectively we lose mail (but will be quarantined
# unless disabled). Not a decent thing to do for a mailer.
# D_BOUNCE mail will not be delivered to its recipients, a non-delivery
# notification (bounce) will be sent to the sender by amavisd-new;
# Exception: bounce (DSN) will not be sent if a virus name matches
# $viruses_that_fake_sender_re, or to messages from mailing lists
# (Precedence: bulk|list|junk);
# D_REJECT mail will not be delivered to its recipients, sender should
# preferably get a reject, e.g. SMTP permanent reject response
# (e.g. with milter), or non-delivery notification from MTA
# (e.g. Postfix). If this is not possible (e.g. different recipients
# have different tolerances to bad mail contents and not using LMTP)
# amavisd-new sends a bounce by itself (same as D_BOUNCE).
# Notes:
# D_REJECT and D_BOUNCE are similar, the difference is in who is responsible
# for informing the sender about non-delivery, and how informative
# the notification can be (amavisd-new knows more than MTA);
# With D_REJECT, MTA may reject original SMTP, or send DSN (delivery status
# notification, colloquially called 'bounce') - depending on MTA;
# Best suited for sendmail milter, especially for spam.
# With D_BOUNCE, amavisd-new (not MTA) sends DSN (can better explain the
# reason for mail non-delivery, but unable to reject the original
# SMTP session). Best suited to reporting viruses, and for Postfix
# and other dual-MTA setups, which can't reject original client SMTP
# session, as the mail has already been enqueued.

# Alternatives to consider for spam:
# - use D_PASS if clients will do filtering based on inserted mail headers;
# - use D_DISCARD, if kill_level is set safely high;
# - use D_BOUNCE instead of D_REJECT if not using milter;
# There are no sensible alternatives to D_BOUNCE for viruses, but consider:
# - use D_PASS (or virus_lovers) and $warnvirussender=1 to deliver viruses;
# - use D_REJECT instead of D_BOUNCE if using milter and under heavy
# virus storm;
# Don't bother to set both D_DISCARD and $warn*sender=1, it will get mapped
# to D_BOUNCE.
# The separation of *_destiny values into D_BOUNCE, D_REJECT, D_DISCARD
# and D_PASS made settings $warnvirussender and $warnspamsender only still

# The value of scalar $virus_quarantine_to/$spam_quarantine_to (or a

# VARIANT 1:
# empty or undef disables quarantine;
# VARIANT 2:
# a string NOT containg an '@';
# amavisd will behave as a local delivery agent (LDA) and will quarantine
# viruses to local files according to hash %local_delivery_aliases (pseudo
# aliases map) - see subroutine mail_to_local_mailbox() for details.
# Some of the predefined aliases are 'virus-quarantine' and 'spam-quarantine'.
# Setting $virus_quarantine_to ($spam_quarantine_to) to this string will:
# * if $QUARANTINEDIR is a directory, each quarantined virus will go
# to a separate file in the $QUARANTINEDIR directory (traditional
# amavis style, similar to maildir mailbox format);
# * otherwise $QUARANTINEDIR is treated as a file name of a Unix-style
# mailbox. All quarantined messages will be appended to this file.
# Amavisd child process must obtain an exclusive lock on the file during
# delivery, so this may be less efficient than using individual files
# or forwarding to MTA, and it may not work across NFS or other non-local
# file systems (but may be handy for pickup of quarantined files via IMAP
# for example);
# VARIANT 3:
# any email address (must contain '@').
# The e-mail messages to be quarantined will be handed to MTA
# for delivery to the specified address. If a recipient address local to MTA
# is desired, you may leave the domain part empty, e.g. 'infected@', but the
# '@' character must nevertheless be included to distinguish it from variant 2.
# This method enables more refined delivery control made available by MTA
# (e.g. its aliases file, other local delivery agents, dealing with
# privileges and file locking when delivering to user's mailbox, nonlocal
# delivery and forwarding, fan-out lists). Make sure the mail-to-be-quarantined
# will not be handed back to amavisd for checking, as this will cause a loop
# (hopefully broken at some stage)! If this can be assured, notifications
# will benefit too from not being unecessarily virus-scanned.

# setup, but probably not safe with sendmail milter interface without

# %virus_lovers, @virus_lovers_acl and $virus_lovers_re lookup tables:
# (these should be considered policy options, they do not disable checks,

# Exclude certain RECIPIENTS from virus filtering by adding their lower-cased
# envelope e-mail address (or domain only) to the hash %virus_lovers, or to
# the access list @virus_lovers_acl - see README.lookups and examples.
# Make sure the appropriate form (e.g. external/internal) of address
# is used in case of virtual domains, or when mapping external to internal
# addresses, etc. - this is MTA-specific.
# Notifications would still be generated however (see the overall
# picture above), and infected mail (if passed) gets additional header:
# X-AMaViS-Alert: INFECTED, message contains virus: ...
# (header not inserted with milter interface!)
# NOTE (milter interface only): in case of multiple recipients,
# it is only possible to drop or accept the message in its entirety - for all
# recipients. If all of them are virus lovers, we'll accept mail, but if
# at least one recipient is not a virus lover, we'll discard the message.
# %bypass_virus_checks, @bypass_virus_checks_acl and $bypass_virus_checks_re
# lookup tables:
# (this is mainly a time-saving option, unlike virus_lovers* !)
# Similar in concept to %virus_lovers, a hash %bypass_virus_checks,
# access list @bypass_virus_checks_acl and regexp list $bypass_virus_checks_re
# are used to skip entirely the decoding, unpacking and virus checking,
# but only if ALL recipients match the lookup.
# %bypass_virus_checks/@bypass_virus_checks_acl/$bypass_virus_checks_re
# do NOT GUARANTEE the message will NOT be checked for viruses - this may
# still happen when there is more than one recipient for a message, and
# not all of them match these lookup tables. To guarantee virus delivery,
# a recipient must also match %virus_lovers/@virus_lovers_acl lookups
# (but see milter limitations above),
# NOTE: it would not be clever to base virus checks on SENDER address,
# since there are no guarantees that it is genuine. Many viruses
# and spam messages fake sender address. To achieve selective filtering
# based on the source of the mail (e.g. IP address, MTA port number, ...),
# use mechanisms provided by MTA if available.
# Similar to lookup tables controlling virus checking, there exist
# spam scanning, banned names/types, and headers_checks control counterparts:
# %spam_lovers, @spam_lovers_acl, $spam_lovers_re
# %banned_files_lovers, @banned_files_lovers_acl, $banned_files_lovers_re

# ENVELOPE SENDER WHITELISTING / BLACKLISTING - GLOBAL (RECIPIENT-INDEPENDENT)
# WHITELISTING: use ENVELOPE SENDER lookups to ENSURE DELIVERY from whitelisted
# senders even if the message is recognized as spam. Effectively, for the
# specified senders, message RECIPIENTS temporarily become 'spam_lovers', with
# further processing being the same as otherwise specified for spam lovers.
# It does not turn off inserting spam-related headers, if they are enabled.
# BLACKLISTING: messages from specified SENDERS are DECLARED SPAM.
# Effectively, for messages from blacklisted senders, spam level
# is artificially pushed high, and the normal spam processing applies,
# resulting in 'X-Spam-Flag: YES', high 'X-Spam-Level' bar and other usual
# reactions to spam, including possible rejection. If the message nevertheless
# still passes (e.g. for spam loving recipients), it is tagged as BLACKLISTED
# in the 'X-Spam-Status' header field, but the reported spam value and
# set of tests in this report header field (if available from SpamAssassin,
# which may have not been called) is not adjusted.
# A sender may be both white- and blacklisted at the same time,
# settings are independent. For example, being both white- and blacklisted,
# message is delivered to recipients, but is tagged as spam.
# If ALL recipients of the message either white- or blacklist the sender,
# spam scanning (calling the SpamAssassin) is bypassed, saving on time.

#HASH lookup variant:
# NOTE: Perl operator qw splits its argument string by whitespace
# and produces a list. This means that addresses can not contain
# whitespace, and there is no provision for comments within the string.
# You can use the normal Perl list syntax if you have special requirements,
# e.g. map {...} ('one user@bla', '.second.com'), or use read_hash to read
# addresses from a file.
# a hash lookup table can be read from a file,
# one address per line, comments and empty lines are permitted:
# read_hash(\%whitelist_sender, '/var/amavis/whitelist_sender');
# ... or set directly:

# Formula:
# quota = max($MIN_EXPANSION_QUOTA,
# $mail_size*$MIN_EXPANSION_FACTOR,
# min($MAX_EXPANSION_QUOTA, $mail_size*$MAX_EXPANSION_FACTOR))
# In plain words (later condition overrules previous ones):

# but not less than MIN_EXPANSION_FACTOR times initial mail size,
# but never less than MIN_EXPANSION_QUOTA

# @av_scanners is a list of n-tuples, where fields semantics is:
# 1. av scanner plain name, to be used in log and reports;
# 2. scanner program name; this string will be submitted to subroutine
# find_external_programs(), which will try to find the full program
# path name; if program is not found, this scanner is disabled.
# Besides a simple string (full program path name or just the basename
# to be looked for in PATH), this may be an array ref of alternative
# program names or full paths - the first match in the list will be used;
# As a special case for more complex scanners, this field may be
# a subroutine reference, and the whole n-tuple is passed to it as args.
# 3. command arguments to be given to the scanner program;
# a substring {} will be replaced by the directory name to be scanned,
# i.e. "$tempdir/parts"
# 4. an array ref of av scanner exit status values, or a regexp (to be
# matched against scanner output), indicating NO VIRUSES found;
# 5. an array ref of av scanner exit status values, or a regexp (to be
# matched against scanner output), indicating VIRUSES WERE FOUND;
# Note: the virus match prevails over a 'not found' match, so it is safe
# even if 4. matches for viruses too;
# 6. a regexp (to be matched against scanner output), returning a list
# of virus names found.
# 7. and 8.: (optional) subroutines to be executed before and after scanner
# (e.g. to set environment or current directory);
# see examples for these at KasperskyLab AVP and Sophos sweep.
# NOTES:
# - NOT DEFINING @av_scanners (e.g. setting it to empty list, or deleting the
# whole assignment) TURNS OFF LOADING AND COMPILING OF THE ANTIVIRUS CODE
# (which can be handy if all you want to do is spam scanning);
# - the order matters: although _all_ available entries from the list are
# always tried regardless of their verdict, scanners are run in the order
# specified: the report from the first one detecting a virus will be used
# (providing virus names and scanner output); REARRANGE THE ORDER TO WILL;
# - it doesn't hurt to keep an unused command line scanner entry in the list
# if the program can not be found; the path search is only performed once
# during the program startup;
# CORROLARY: to disable a scanner that _does_ exist on your system,
# comment out its entry or use undef or '' as its program name/path
# (second parameter). An example where this is almost a must: disable
# Sophos 'sweep' if you have its daemonized version Sophie or SAVI-Perl
# (same for Trophie/vscan, and clamd/clamscan), or if another unrelated
# program happens to have a name matching one of the entries ('sweep'
# again comes to mind);
# - it DOES HURT to keep unwanted entries which use INTERNAL SUBROUTINES
# for interfacing (where the second parameter starts with \&).
# Keeping such entry and not having a corresponding virus scanner daemon
# causes an unnecessary connection attempt (which eventually times out,
# but it wastes precious time). For this reason the daemonized entries
# are commented in the distribution - just remove the '#' where needed.

(1) You say you did the symbolic link. I will assume this is set correctly; it's very important that it is.
(2) I don't know what you mean by "Been feeding the [email protected] for several weeks now, 700 emails each day at least." After the initial training period, SpamAssassin doesn't learn from mail it has already processed correctly. At this point, you only need to teach SpamAssassin when it is wrong. [email protected] should only be getting spam that is being passed as clean. Likewise, [email protected] should only be getting legitimate mail that is being flagged as junk. You are redirecting mail to both [email protected] and [email protected] ... right? SpamAssassin needs both.
(3) Next, as I said before, you need to implement those "Frontline spam defense for Mac OS X Server." Once you have that done and issue "postfix reload" you can look at your SMTP log in Server Admin and watch as Postfix blocks one piece of junk mail after another. It's kind of cool.
(4) Add some SARE rules:
Visit http://www.rulesemporium.com/rules.htm and download the following rules:
70sareadult.cf
70saregenlsubj0.cf
70sareheader0.cf
70sarehtml0.cf
70sareobfu0.cf
70sareoem.cf
70sarespoof.cf
70sarestocks.cf
70sareunsub.cf
72sare_redirectpost
Visit http://www.rulesemporium.com/other-rules.htm and download the following rules:
backhair.cf
bogus-virus-warnings.cf
chickenpox.cf
weeds.cf
Copy these rules to /etc/mail/spamassassin/
Then stop and restart mail services.
There are other things you can do, and you'll find differing opinions about such things. In general, I think implementing the "Frontline spam defense for Mac OS X Server" and adding the SARE rules will help a lot. Good luck! -
Why is mail not working with gmail?
And not for nothin', it doesn't seem to be working at all as it used to.
Nearly every morning I come down and see the message that Mail has crashed... again.
I am beginning to really, really regret installing Mavericks and wish I could go back... but now important documents have been upgraded to the new Pages and Keynote so I'm stuck.
So... I'm discovering that my iPad and my MacAir are the only machines that will load my gmail. My iPhone won't and my iMac won't.
I have no confidence that things are synching across all Apple products.
I believe I have done all the updates.
This is not the standard we have relied on in the past (and I've been an Apple person since the Apple II).
Please help us...
I probably wouldn't even be using Gmail if Apple had not discontinued iDisk forcing me to go somewhere else for cloud storage. Still mourning that move.
ROSorry -- the fact is that there doesn't seem to be any logic to what is happening -- or rather not happening.
There are two issues and I don't know if they are related or not.
GMAIL and MAIL:
Works on my MacAir but NOT on my iMac. Both have OSX 10.9 with most recent updates.
Works on my iPad with exactly the same account configuration as my iPhone... where it doesn't work.
MAIL in general on my iMac:
From day one with Mavericks, Mail refuses to remember my iCloud login information.
It remembers my university's email config (@rwu.edu)
Nothing shows up under Gmail at all but it doesn't give me the Lightning symbol to tell me there's a problem.
Just about every morning I come back to my computer and there's an application crashed dialog box that tells me Mail unexpectedly quit and do I want to REOPEN. And when I do, I have to log in for my iCloud Mail to show up.
I assume that crash reports are automatically going to Apple... I don't get the option to send it to you.
Thanks in advance.
Addendum: I hesitate to delete the Gmail account from anywhere in case the result is that I will lose my ability to read Gmail on the two appliances where it is all working. That, and the fact that it is the end of the semester and I have 100 students emailing me everyday about last minute things and final exams. NOT the time to delete ANYTHING. But I might try next week...

ICloud mail not working, lost all mail.
hello,
i have this new problem which i can not figure out so i am asking for your help.
the situation is as follows:
i own a .mac account since day 1. and moved to icloud. so did my wife. all worked fine till i decided to update her iphone to ios6 i think.
today she send me an email which i received on my ipad. the notification on my ipad said an email was received from my name. checked the email and the email was my wifes email, but with my name.
went to iclouds on ther prefs pane and saw that it was under my name but i could not change it.
went to apple id and change the name under her apple id to her name and everything changed under hers.
but mail app got all srewed up.
i have lost all her emails and the only thing i get is an inbox and the sent folder.
her web mail and iphone have all folders and emails so they are not lost from the server.
i can not seem to be able to connect the macbook to the icloud server.
i log out from her apple id, and icloud. relog but mail will not sync with icloud and give an error in the pref pane window of icloud. it sais that icloud would not be enabled and go to mail and add the account from there.
i try to do it and when i go to add the account the account is already there. the icon on the left in the accounts list shows the icloud icon with mobile me title and icloud imap description.
the details in the account are correct and already filled in and locked. the server is p01-imap.mail.me.com
i send an email from my account to my wifes email. her iphone received the email from my name to my name (yes my name) but under her email address since she received it. on the macbook the email never arrived.
if i delete the account in the mail app i will get all fields locked but only the alias pull down menu with her email address with the @mac, @ me and @icloud alias.
enabling and disabling the acount will not add an icon to the left. enabling will fill in the locked fields. but do not really make mail work.
quiting mail and reopoening will create an icloud account like before....all in a loop and it gts me really mad!
i can not describe the problem any better since i do not understand what is going on.
macbook is on lion.
pleasseeeeee heeeellllpppp
or to put things on simpler note, mail will not enable/sync with iclouds.
Message was edited by: nassoscI have the same problem with my iPhone 5 iOS 6. Message reads "The latest backup could not be completed." I have tried about 10 times, both auto and manual syncs. The progress bar progresses about 1%, stays there for about 5-10 minutes then the message appears. To rule out the possibility of a wireless signal problem, I did an iCloud backup on my wife's iPad (iOS 5.1.1) and my iPad II (iOS 6) and had no problems. I can't understand why my iPhone 5 has the problem and not my other devices. Apple phone support was unable to resolve this and the support person said he has not heard of this problem and would contact the engineering department.

the problem I have since I upgraded to Mavericks version 10.9.1
The problem appears only with Mail not with other programs, not even with my browser.
When I try to zoom the text of an e-mail I received or sent , I can no longer use the keys Command + to enlarge the text, although I can reduce it with Command -.
As I have a problem with my eyes, This is a serious matter for me.
When I write an e-mail, if I select text and press Command +, it just displaces the text to the right.
Now, my husband has a USB keyboard. If he connects it to my computer, his regular Command + does not work either, but he uses the extended keyboard, then it works. Unfortunately, he needs it for a musical application which does not work with a wireless keyboard.Firefox 3.6.4 and 3.6.6 use a process called, "plugin-container.exe" which was using up most of my CPU when I opened up multiple tabs that contained Adobe Flash files, and caused Firefox to lock up.
My solution was to use Firefox 3.5.10 which you can get from the Mozilla website at [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html]
I am using Adobe Flash 10.1.53.64 without any problem in this version of Firefox. Check the release notes, I believe it contains all the latest security fixes in "Firefox 3.6.4".
Hopefully, they will fix Firefox 3.6 in the next version (e.g. Firefox 3.6.7), until then you should probably use "Firefox 3.5.10". -
Mavric doesn't support my 5 years old Big Screen Display, OR? Tried to connect my Mac Book Pro after installing Mavric, The Screen didn't work as before. I could only see the Desktop but not the movies for example.
<E-mail Edited by Host>It appears what happened is the installer though it was looking at a empty drive and just went ahead and installed.
I of course am assuming here you didn't use Disk Utility to format the drive first before installing, that would wipe out your files and programs for sure.
So what to do, what to do.
Well there is hope for you as long as the drive wasn't Filevaulted.
I'll explain. When a hard drive writes data for the first time to a drive, it starts at the very top and works it's way down.
When OS X was installed the first time, it was at the top of the drive, unless you upgraded then the upgraded OS X could have been written elsewhere.
Now when you just reinstalled OS X, the new OS went on the top of the drive, overwriting any data that was there previously, so what was there you have lost forever which is about 8GB or so. If it was the previous OS there, then your more in luck because only the old OS X was overwritten.
The remaining space on the drive still can have a copy of your files, provided it's not overwritten yet.
It's because when a hard drive deletes data or reformats, it doesn't remove the data off the drive or overwrites it immediately, it's just made so it's SPACE is available for new files to be written there.
So technically one can recover the deleted data off a non-encrypted/scrubbed hard drive with special software.
The way it does this is it reads the 1's and 0's of the files themselves, and through a lot of figuring out, can tell what that file is and what it belongs too.
So what you will have to do is this:
Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
or if you don't have the skills, then take it to a local PC/Mac tech and they can do a direct image of the drive and then you can run Data Rescue on it to rebuild your files.
