    I just installed Postfix and one of the features I couldn't wait to use is
    the UCE controls - specifically, header_checks and body_checks. Postfix
    seems to be working very well in bagging a lot of crap that used to fill my
    inbox.

    Only one hitch... I run logcheck (the utility that scans the log files
    periodically and sends "interesting" entries to an email address - in my
    case, once per hour). Now, when Postfix discovers UCE via a body check, it
    puts part of the match into the log message. When logcheck picks up the
    entry and puts it in the body of its own message, the logcheck message is
    also bagged as UCE, and rejected.

    Has anyone encountered this? I tried putting a header check that would
    accept the message, but it doesn't help as body checks are still run and it
    kicks it out.

    My workaround is to tell logcheck to ignore those entries, but I'd rather
    be getting that information. Has anyone dealt with this issue? It would be
    nice for an unconditional ACCEPT in either header or body checks - i.e., if
    it matches here, accept it and don't do any more checks on this message.

    Suggestions?

    Thanks.

    Stephen
