RE: [Declude.JunkMail] OT - Server Watching.
I actually reached for an older linux distro called sentinix. Comes kind of out of the box with Snort/ACD and Nagios/Nagios Admin. A little dated but as it sits behind a very secure firewall it is extremely effective and fairly painless and has a cost of $0.

One curious thing is if I go to into the IMail administrator program and try through there to manually send a message, I get a window showing Declude.exe is trying to push the program. This is a big problem, and I'm just not sure where to turn. I've moved all the queue files out of the queue and putting a few in, but the files just seem to sit there and do nothing.

[Declude.JunkMail] Hyperthreading research
For those that are interested in the effect of multi-CPU's and hyperthreading has with an IMail/Declude setup, here's some additional research. I previously tested my dual Xeon setup with both hyperthreading enabled and disabled, and found that the utilization jumped an astonishing ~100% when I disabled hyperthreading. I figured that there was a decent chance that this could be unique to my server. Upon testing Nick's own server with an almost identical configuration I again found a jump of ~100% in utilization when hyperthreading was disabled. FYI, I'm sure that the stats are correct and not an issue with the stats gathering mechanism because my server was being pummeled and was bogged down appropriately when it was at high CPU. The attached graphs show the effect of having hyperthreading both on and off on two different servers. I assume from these confirmed results that with only two CPU's recognized by the system instead of 4 CPU's when hyperthreading is enabled, the system gets bogged down in managing the threads/processes, and this is what causes it to lose significant performance. This also strongly suggests that as utilization rises due to adding more E-mail volume, the efficiency may fall. I have noted that my system when recovering from a backup in E-mail does not seem to catch up very quickly even when pegged at 100%. Judging by the performance at 50% or lower utilization, I would have expected a redlined server to handle more. On both my system and Nick's systems we run at least 3 external tests and two virus scanners as well as many Declude filters, and I suspect that it is the command line stuff that contributes to this negative effect. Both of us are running on a SuperMicro platform, so that can't be ruled out as a culprit, and we are also both running Declude 2.0.x. I am willing to test another system on a different platform that is running Declude 3.x just to confirm whether or not this caries over to the modified processes. So the rule of thumb here, if this research is accurate, is that hyperthreading is a huge benefit to Declude, and it should follow that having as many physical and virtual CPU's as possible is much more important than maxing out the CPU speed. Quite literally, a single hyperthreaded 3GHz CPU is as good as two 3GHz CPU's with no hyperthreading. Matt
Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Logged spam getting to mailbox
Title: Logged spam getting to mailbox Andrew probably nailed this. In at least some versions of Declude, the headers that it inserts could land in the body of the message due to bad folding techniques that the spammer uses (sometimes also legitimate mailers will produce this flaw). Your client rule is probably searching for headers and doesn't recognize the header that was inserted into what became the body due to bad folding. An upgrade may or may not fix the issue, though there was talk about this issue several months ago in relation to 3.x and I believe some work was done to take care of some of it. Matt Agid, Corby wrote: Actually, I'm still running 2.0.5. I suppose that I should probably upgrade, eh? I don't actually delete mail at any score.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Logged spam getting to mailbox
Title: Logged spam getting to mailbox Corby, I also received a bunch of these, and one copy that I came up with in a hold box showed that the headers were in fact broken. My MS SMTP gateway shows the From, Bcc, and locally inserted MS SMTP headers at the very bottom of this message. That's how MS SMTP deals with it, but Declude might deal with it differently, or it might even have broken your older version of Declude. You should at least upgrade to 2.0.6.16 which is available from their site. Upgrading to 3.x would be something that you should plan more carefully though as it is a major change. I suspect that you are looking at the rendered view of the E-mail, and since this is a multipart message with both text and HTML segments, it is not rendering the broken headers in the normal view, but they might be there if you were to look at the original text source. If the headers are in the body and your rule in your client is looking for headers where they belong, that would explain why your filter isn't working.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Logged spam getting to mailbox
Title: Logged spam getting to mailbox Corby, I assumed that you weren't using an MS gateway, I was just letting you know that what happened to these headers was going to be different on my system. I have tons of spam on my system generated by this spamware and it's all showing the same behavior so I suspect that there is an issue with what you are receiving as well. It could just be a single CR without an LF which can look normal in a text viewer, but can throw programs like Declude and MS SMTP off. This should explain the initial cause of the issue. The handling of the malformed headers may vary in different versions of Declude.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Logged spam getting to mailbox
Title: Logged spam getting to mailbox Corby, Because of MS SMTP handling the E-mail before it reaches my IMail/Declude system, Declude always inserts it's headers in the proper block, however MS SMTP can cause some of the pre-Declude headers (original) to appear in either the top of the body or the bottom of the body.

[Declude.JunkMail] Incomplete headers - theory
I have been having problems with incomplete or broken headers in lots of spam messages. Sometimes I will see the missing headers in the body of the message, sometimes not. See below for example. The subject when the message arrived in the inbox was: Subject: EXPLICIT: Nice online dating booty call service.. Kind of caught my eye because I have a porn filter for EXPLICIT: in the subject. So the porn filter wasn't triggered. PORNLIST filter d:\IMail\Declude\pornlist.txt x 5 0 with a routeto in the default file. The log told me that Q file exceeds 512 bytes in size. Ipswitch's knowledge base tells me that this was triggered because of the auto-deny hack attempts was checked in smtp. It didn't deny it however, since the message was delivered. None of the rules in either Outlook or imail web interface were triggered because the header is incomplete. I turned off the auto-deny and haven't seen any more messages yet. My question is, has anyone noticed anything like this, and is this feature broken or is their another factor involved. Declude 3.0.5.23 Imail 8.21 Karen M.
