Roberto,

a shot in the dark here:
Does enterprise version allow to specify different image filtering settings per domain?

the only other option would be to run a 2nd instance with much stronger image filtering settings. how would the AV plugin be configured then?

Thanks
Amir

Amir,

"Absolutely yes!" on the separate image filtering settings. The main feature in the Enterpise version is to allow you to customize most of the filters for each domain.

One exception is the AV plugin. It can be either turned on or off globally, that one cannot be customized per domain.

Roberto,

I think i'm trying to reassure myself here.
Can we take SFE and upgrade / install over SFI?
For the domains that we don't use any of the fancy SFE features can we expect "buggy" beta behaviour?

I read the "standard" disclaimer about "problems are expected. Using this version in a live production environment is not recommended", but it's still worrying.

In our current setup we tag the spam and deliver to mail server for handling there. will we be able to keep the same behaviour for domains that DON'T make use of the enterprise features?

Thanks
Amir

The 3.5 upgrade will make several changes in the SpamFilter.ini structure, and will also move some of the settings in that file to a new,  separate filters.ini. All this will happen automatically when SpamFilter starts (SpamFilter will make the changes, not the installation program...). So the answer to your upgrade question is "yes". The same applies to your 3rd question, the tag and deliver functionality is the same.

For the stability question... that's of course a harder one to answer. It *is* a beta... however we were comfortable enough with this new 636 build that we ourselves as an ISP have installed it (running in 3.5 "standard" mode, not "enterprise" mode) on our live production server, with zero issues so far (been running it 4 days).

The main problem that still exists for me, that would be a problem with taking the beta into 'production' is the fact that you can't use the character '\' in the regular expressions.

I'm using mySQL, which uses '\' as the escape character so when using that in regular expressions the system thinks you are trying to escape the character after then when inserting into the database.

The end result is, you can't properly do regex filtering...

caratking, if you reported that before, I'm sorry, we missed it. I confirm the bug with MySQL, we'll see what we can do to fix it.

Just to make sure that I'm clear on the procedure to update a working SFI system and convert to SFE.

Shutdown my existing installation

Install the SFE in the same directory as my current SFI install

Start SFE and tell it to work in Enterprise mode.

SFE will add some DB changes adding nececessary tables??

It will take my current 260 domain and put them into the database
as needed.??

Is this correct so far? I have been using SFE in standalone test mode but not sure how to take an existing production SFI system and convert it to SFE properly. Just want to make sure I understand the procedure.

I might want to set SFE up correctly and add a couple of lightly loaded that I currently have working under SFI.

Thanks!

Actually, I think I reported it two or three times previously.  I just thought another time might be in order... glad I did.

I installed the new .636 on a windows 2003 box with MSSQL 2000.  I turned on the enterprise features, restarted SFE, and successfully went through the database connection steps.  After setting the ip's, FQDN, etc, I restarted the server and attempted to a edit the Attachment Blocking list for ALL Domains.  Here is a clip from the logs:

01/23/07 19:35:29:999 -- Exception occurred during SaveToDBMemoControl (14): Line 2: Incorrect syntax near ','
01/23/07 19:35:30:046 -- Exception occurred during WriteFilterSettings: Row cannot be located for updating. Some values may have been changed since it was last read
01/23/07 19:35:30:624 -- (2080) Exporting DB data for tbl_FilterSettings: domains\ ALL DOMAINS\Filters.ini
01/23/07 19:35:30:624 -- (2080) Reloading filter.ini: domains\ ALL DOMAINS\Filters.ini

Any idea's?  I have removed the database and recreated it several times to make sure that I did not error something.

Thanks
