He's right. You might want to implement a postfix-amavisdnew-clamav-spamassassin setup.

clamav - antivirus
spamassassin - antispam
amavisd-new - makes the 2 softwares above work seamlessly with postfix

The virus - Worm.SCO.A/MyDoom/Novarg will start its DoS attack on feb.1.

You'd better update your firewall as well.


You can use this for iptables to avoid DoS:

###### Syn-flood chain #######################################################
$IPTABLES -N syn-flood
$IPTABLES -A syn-flood -i eth0 -m limit --limit 75/s --limit-burst 100 -j RETURN
$IPTABLES -A syn-flood -i eth1 -j RETURN
$IPTABLES -A syn-flood -j DROP

$IPTABLES -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp --syn -j syn-flood
$IPTABLES -A INPUT -i eth1 -p tcp --syn -j syn-flood

eth0 is your ethernet card facing the internet
eth1 is your intranet or local ethernet card



Hope that helps. Good luck!

Cheers,

Hi,

        Please read sample-regexp-body.cf.  You may want to implement AV
integration with your postfix. See Amavis.

Hi pluggers,
 
Any Postfix gurus here? I need help guys. My mail server keeps on
