New to custom hooks

[Scott Fertig]

Also to be clear, I only want the text from the body - I don't want to modify the body at all. I've seen alot of posts from people wanting to modify the body but that is not really what I'm after.

I've gotten past my original issues, now I am much further along, I also forgot to mention that I am working with amavis 2.9. The remaining issue I have is that I am trying to get the body of the message if a subject matches a variable I have set in my custom hook. It appears that amavis tries to get the body based on this subject value but the output of this ends up being IO::File=GLOB(0x6a0ef70)

sub new {
  my($class,$conn,$msginfo) = @_;
  my($self) = bless {}, $class;
my($valuefrombody) = $msginfo->mail_text;
my($line); my($line_cnt) = 0;
my($ll) = 0;
do_log($ll,"CUSTOM: $valuefrombody");

The log reflects this as well and the value is being stored as IO::File=GLOB(0x6a0f528), I'm not quite sure what I'm overlooking to get this everything else appears to work as intended though.

Hello all,
I am sure you get questions like this all the time to the point of annoyance so I will try to keep this very short. I have tried searching for an answer during the last several days but all of my searches have lead to nowhere. Basically I am trying to learn more about the amavisd custom hooks and am trying to do some basic tests, however I feel like I may be missing something obvious that I do not know about. I have written a basic hook that does not really do anything as of yet, just simple use of get_header_body on the sender, subject, and to addresses, whenever I try to restart amavis I always get an error:

Starting amavisd...Error in config file "/etc/amavisd.conf": Error in config file "/etc/amavisd-SF.conf": Can't call method "get_header_field_body" on an undefined value at /opt/zimbra/conf/amavisd-SF.conf line 18, <DATA> line 751.

I have called a include: on the file amavisd-SF.conf in the amavisd configuration file.

The include is very small but this is the part it seems that it cannot get by:

package Amavis::Custom;
my($to) = $msginfo->get_header_field('to');
my($from) = $msginfo->get_header_field_body('from')


Am I perhaps missing a package or something else trivial? I feel like I am missing something basic like a import or defining a package, but I'm just not sure.
