When a message arrives at my mail server, how does the server perform the reverse lookup? It just does. :) You can go to http://www.DNSstuff.com/info/revdns.htm for an overview of how reverse DNS lookups work. Or, you can use the Reverse DNS Lookup at http://wwwDNSstuff.com to check to see if the reverse DNS entry exists for a given IP. -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Listed in Spam databases
I have found that I am listed on both Fiveteningnore and Postfixgate. I have attempted to contact both locations several time and even tried to contact Spamhaus (listed under Fiveteningnore) but have not received any answers back. Fiveteningnore shows the listing because my backbone (Sprint) is there but I have no idea why I am listed on the other. Does anyone have any other suggestions on how to contact these people and get removed. Did you send E-mail to the special address at the FIVETEN site? There is one E-mail address ('blacklist@', I think) that you can send to where they will not block your mail. As for Postfixgate, well... I think we're listed in there too. Needless to say, I don't really care too much. -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Filter Help
The test appears to be set up correctly. I checked my declude log - there are entries for the spamtext.txt file (which contains the below) triggering on line 12 (one line below this particular block) and entries for the base64 test being triggered. I pulled a random message out of my delete box that should have been flagged and checked the headers.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Filter Help
Yes, we know. that is why we wanted to use a weighted rule in Declude, rather than an absolute rule in IMAIL. The problem with specific addresses (and we have a few (ok, a lot) of those, is that the spammers simply move every so often, but we keep blocking the old IP addresses forever. And they can get new addresses faster than we can add them to the list. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Madscientist Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2002 2:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Filter Help An Asside - Watch out for false positives with this one.

Assuming all of that to be true, my system holds anything with a weight greater than 15 ... I see a lot of things go through that have 11's and 12's, so my first thought is to try 5 for the weight on this test. Good idea? Bad idea?

Scott Perry Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2002 10:38 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Listed in Spam databases I have found that I am listed on both Fiveteningnore and Postfixgate. I have attempted to contact both locations several time and even tried to contact Spamhaus (listed under Fiveteningnore) but have not received any answers back. Fiveteningnore shows the listing because my backbone (Sprint) is there but I have no idea why I am listed on the other. Does anyone have any other suggestions on how to contact these people and get removed. Did you send E-mail to the special address at the FIVETEN site? There is one E-mail address ('blacklist@', I think) that you can send to where they will not block your mail. As for Postfixgate, well... I think we're listed in there too. Needless to say, I don't really care too much. -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Filter Help
ARRGGHHH spaces after the 6!!! and the same on all but one of the rules. All found and fixed (and several more rules later on with spaces. (but, yes, there was an http://6 in the raw source). Thanks for the help, Karen -Original Message- From:R. Scott Perry I also cut and pasted the raw html sourc into a program to count characters -- a total of 2438, including all spaces. Did you check the raw HTML source to see if it had http://6; in it? Are there any spaces after the http://6; in the c:\imail\declude\spamtext.txt file (which would require the space(s) in the E-mail)? -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

Also, filters only work with the Pro version of Declude, I believe. -Original Message- From: R. Scott Perry ... that I could do a filter to block all messages using that opt-in statement by: 1. putting While visiting a partner website, you opted-in to receive special online offers. in a text file called optin.txt It would need to be set up as a filter, using a line such as BODY 10 CONTAINS While visiting a partner website, you opted-in to receive special online offers., rather than just the text by itself. --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

When I put an XOUTHEADER in my global.cfg file it won't be put in my email when I use the imail webmail to send it. (Yes it works when I use my imail server as smtp server in outlook) That is correct -- IMail usually sends web messaging E-mail directly to IMail1.exe, bypassing Declude. -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

[Declude.JunkMail] Customizing filters
I'm stumpted... How can I apply a weight system to the filter list? I am trying to create a word filter that will flag out Subject: Monday's Motivation from a certain user. Yet, be okay from another user using that subject. I am just testing the word monday's in the subject. Total weight=4. It rejects because of the Filters HOLD in $default.junkmail. Good... Now i remove FILTERS HOLD, and everything passes.. How can I apply a weight system to the filter list? Thanks in advance...

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Customizing filters
How can I apply a weight system to the filter list? That's easy -- the definition of the test (MYFILTER filter filename x 10 0) will determine the generic weight that will be added to the E-mail if the E-mail fails the test, and then each entry in the filter file (SUBJECT 5 CONTAINS Monday's Motivation) will include another weight that will get added to the E-mail. I am trying to create a word filter that will flag out Subject: Monday's Motivation from a certain user. Yet, be okay from another user using that subject. That will be a bit trickier, since there isn't any boolean logic in the filters (such as 'subject contains xyz and sender is abc'). I am just testing the word monday's in the subject. Total weight=4. It rejects because of the Filters HOLD in $default.junkmail. Good... Now i remove FILTERS HOLD, and everything passes.. How can I apply a weight system to the filter list? If you change the weight to 10, the WEIGHT10 test would fail, and the WEIGHT10 test could be set to HOLD. -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
