eleven – Eleven eXpurgate Content Scanning

eleven – Eleven eXpurgate Content Scanning

Last updated March 2020

The eleven module implements the spam filter and e-mail categorization service available from http://www.eleven.de/. If you intend to use this module be sure to choose it during installation. For more information, see “Installing Partner Modules”.

Configuration

As with other Validation modules, eleven may be loaded in passive mode which means that inbound messages will not be virus scanned unless you explicitly call a policy script. In order to enforce policy using scripts, this module must be loaded in passive mode. Modules are loaded passively by setting the enabled option to false.

The following is a typical configuration:

eleven {
  enabled = false
  work_dir = "/var/tmp"
  update_period = 3600
  license = "/usr/local/eleven/etc/client.key"
  enable_antivir = true
  servers = ( "foo.example.com:55555:1" "bar.example.com:12345:2" )
}

The following configuration options are available:

enable_antivir

Enables the Avira SAVAPI-based virus detection. Note: The minor results virus and outbreak are only returned if this option is set to true. Default value is false.

license

Absolute path to the user's license. Default value is /usr/local/eleven/etc/client.key.

servers

Specifies additional update servers. Each server is specified as host:port:priority. The trailing port and priority fields are optional and, if omitted, default to 55555 (the default port for eleven updates) and 5 respectively. Priority decreases as the numerical value increases with 0 being the highest possible priority.

update_period

How often to poll for updates. Default value is 3600 seconds, one hour. If this value is set to 0, updates are disabled.

work_dir

Location of temporary files created by this module. Default value is /var/tmp.

Lua Functions

This module makes the Lua function msys.expurgate.scan available. For a description of how this function is used, see msys.expurgate.scan.

Scores

Lua creates a string representation of the major score value. These functions annotate the validation context with the following values:

  • eleven-majorscore – Numeric classification of the scan

  • eleven-minorscore – Numeric minor classification

  • eleven-result – String representation corresponding to the eleven-majorscore number

  • eleven-result-subtype – String representation corresponding to the eleven-minorscore number

If an error occurs, eleven-majorscore is set to "error" and eleven-minorscore holds the error message. The same applies to eleven-result and eleven-result-subtype; if an error occurs eleven-result is set to "error" and eleven-result-subtype is set to the error message.

Otherwise, the major score is set to the numeric major classification and the major result is set to a string version of that classification number. Its value will be one of the following:

  • clean

  • suspect

  • spam

  • bulk

  • dangerous

  • unknown

The minor score is set to the numeric minor classification, and the minor result is set to the string representation corresponding to the eleven-minorscore number. Its value will be one of the following:

  • normal

  • empty

  • empty-body

  • almost-empty

  • bounce

  • advertisement

  • porn

  • virus

  • attachment

  • code

  • iframe

  • outbreak

  • url

  • url-count

  • mail-count

  • sender

Note: The minor results virus and outbreak are only returned if the enable_antivir option is set to true.
