mod_security and Dada Mail

Hello all,

I've been working on a client's install, and we've found that the
apache plugin, "mod_security" -> http://www modsecurity org/ seems to
hose Dada Mail's mailing list message sending You'll receive lines
in the apache error log that say things like:

[Thu May 25 07:51:21 2006] [error] [client 12 345 123 341] mod_security: Warning Pattern match "([0-9a-zA-Z]+[- +&])*[0-9a-zA-Z]+@([-0-9a-zA-Z]+[ ])+[a-zA-Z]{2,6}" at POSTPAYLOAD [hostname "example com"] [uri "/cgi-bin/dada/mail cgi"]

That I'm not quite sure what the pattern is matching, but it looks
like an email address (I think?!)

Turning mod_security, off seems to relieve the problem You may
have luck turning mod_security off using an htaccess file in the cgi- bin/dada directory, with this as its contents:

SecFilterEngine Off

I'll let you guys know more information, when I find out more
information myself
