[Declude.JunkMail] SPAMC32 (SpamAssassin SPAMC for Declude) 0.5.55 released

2004-01-13 Thread Sanford Whiteman
SPAMC32 0.5.55 is available for download at

http://www.mailmage.com/download/software/freeutils/spamc32/release

Users  anticipating  the  big RegEx rollout will have to wait a little
longer,  but there are some very powerful new features and performance
improvements in this release:

-  You  can  add  a  SKIPIFWEIGHT-type  threshold  to  ensure  that no
SpamAssassin  tests  will  be  run  if  the  message is already over a
certain  weight:  SPAMC32 will pass (0) such messages immediately. See
the -cw/-sw combo.

-   You   can  specify  a  Declude-specific  SpamAssassin  weightrange
regardless of SPAMD's 'required_hits' directive. This is useful if you
want  to create several different Declude tests with different Declude
weights;  if  you  don't  have/don't  want control over a remote SPAMD
server;  or if you want to change the effective SpamAssassin threshold
without restarting the daemon. See the -lt/-ht combo.

-   SPAMC32  -?  and  relNotes.txt  are  still  the  main  sources  of
documentation. I'll get there soon. :)

SPAMC32 Release 0.5.55
1/12/2004

*

IMPORTANT  NOTE:  Several defaults have been changed with this version
to  better  fit with anticipated deployments of Declude/IMail/SPAMC32.
While I know this is somewhat poor development practice, the installed
base  of SPAMC32 is small enough that I felt it would be better to use
more appropriate defaults from this point forward. In addition, if you
are   currently   using  the  suggested  GLOBAL.CFG  test  description
displayed  by  SPAMC32  -?, there are no necessary changes, though you
will  be  passing  redundant data. All current users *must* review the
[*]  entries  in  the  release notes to see if you're trusting certain
defaults in your installation.

  *

Release notes for this version:

[ + Added feature]
[ * Improved/changed feature ]
[ - Bug fix  ]
[ ^ Cosmetic/naming change   ]

[+]  Added  switches '-cw' (current weight) and '-sw' (skip-if weight)
to  allow  short-circuiting  SpamAssassin tests if the current Declude
weight of the message exceeds a set threshold. (These switches must be
used together.)

[+]  Added  switches 'lt' (low threshold) and 'ht' (high threshold) to
allow  admins  to  set spam parameters on the client side, rather than
using SPAMD's required_hits setting. SPAMD results between the low and
high  values  will  be considered spam regardless of the required_hits
setting,   allowing  for  multiple  tests  and  live  updates  without
restarting SPAMD. (These switches must be used together.)

[*]  Changed  default  reporting  behavior (when not using '-c', '-r',
'-s',   '-y'   switches)   to   '-c'   (check  only)  for  performance
considerations.

[*]  Removed  'process'  option  completely: is redundant w/Declude as
aggregator.

[*]  Changed default maximum message size (when not using '-a' switch)
to 32000.

[*] Changed default timeout (when not using '-t' switch) to 10.

[*] Changed suggested Declude test description for GLOBAL.CFG to leave
out values that are now defaults (timeout and message size), and fixed
error  that  suggested  that  the  %QUEUENAME%  parameter needed to be
specifically   added   to   the  command  line  (Declude  appends  the
%QUEUENAME%  automatically.  Existing  users  are urged to review this
change.

[^] Various code segments consolidated for performance.

Yes, I'm still using LogLevel=MID.

Never changed it - unless someone tells me that LOW or HIGH are more
appopriate.
There is a new 1.77i16 at http://www.declude.com/interim that addresses

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] More 1.77i15 Log Issues

2004-01-13 Thread R. Scott Perry

Should the Tests Failed summary line be complete, e.g., should it
replace every single Failed line that appears in the HIGH log mode?  This
way, log analyzers can simply parse the Tests Failed summary and learn about
every test AND every action?
Correct.

If so, I believe there may be one issue.  My Tests Failed line don't seem to
itemize ANY negative test results, not even word filters.  Could it be, that
your Tests Failed is using the HIDETESTS definitions to suppress
information?
The one that shows the negative weights (the one that ends with Total 
weight = ) appears at LOGLEVEL MID and higher, and is separate from the 
new one (that starts with Tests failed).  The new one replaces the 
LOGLEVEL LOW log file entries, and therefore will only record the tests 
that would have generated a log file entry.  This is appropriate as the 
negative weights affect the total weight of the E-mail (Total weight = 
line), but do not affect the actions that are taken (Tests failed line).

Note that the HIDETESTS option does not affect what is shown in either line.

 I guess that was a noble try... but it didn't work.

Well, it probably worked, just not enough. :)
Yeah, I'll buy that! :)


 I'm  going  to try to separate the spamd/spamc processes and see how
 that  goes.
That  will alleviate the utilization issue, for sure. Depending on the
age  of  your  server,  you  should  think  about adding an additional
processor.  I  find that that's one fun part about running mail on old
boxes  with  new disks: as it gives you ability to scale up processing
on  the  cheap  as  needed,  while  still  giving peak performance for
disk-starved  tasks.  A lot of people inadvertently err on the side of
processor power by buying new boxes and ignoring DASD optimization.
Unfortunately, this particular server is out of space for new drives 
internally.  Now realistically, I could rebuild it and do it right, and it 
would probably last a very long time.  When I got the server, it had 4 
drives configured for Raid 5 in a single logical drive with 3 
partitions.  I added two more drives in a mirrored set, and moved the spool 
to this.  That helped drastically.  I may look into external scsi drives...


 I  know  this  server is grossly underpowered for what I'm trying to
 do,  but I inherited it this way, and I don't think I'm gonna get to
 buy a new one here anytime soon. The person before didn't understand
 how to spec out a mailserver.
Gotcha.

One  thing  you should know about that I'm building into SPAMC32 right
now  is  a  SKIPIFWEIGHT  option  that  will return 0 immediately if a
(Declude) weight has already been exceeded, thus saving processing for
way out-of-range spam.
Now that would be awesome.  If there's anything I can do to help, let me 
know.  I don't know a much about VB (I think that's what it's written in?) 
but I'd be willing to help in anyway I can.

Thanks,

Virus, though JunkMail is where most of the processing goes when you are

Yeah, I'm currently running 1.77i15 as of this morning, and I've been using 
your latest filters.  Previously, I had to remove your old filters due to 
processing limitations, but the new ones are great!!

Yeah, I guess it makes since that if I'm stopping 160,000 of the message 
with Junkmail, that I now only have to scan 40,000 messages for virii.


I just upgraded to IMail 8 and am using WHITELIST AUTH and PREWHITELIST 
ON, and that also saves on processing.  I'm nowhere near your utilization,

I haven't yet turned those options on, but I guess I probably should.  I 
hate to see a server this busy as well, but fortunately, all it does is

 BigPond.com isn't a spam house, they are a DSL provider in
  Australia.
 They however have a large number of mail servers that consistently
   relay
 spam.  It's almost like they are hosting spammers, and have
  them relay

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] SpamD/SpamC for Declude

2004-01-13 Thread Matt
Russ,

Another idea would be to block SBL with IMail 8 so that stuff never gets 
to Declude.  SBL can be as much as 25% of my traffic, and I weight that 
in Declude so that it deletes on just that one hit.  This could 
potentially save you a good deal of processing power and be huge for 
your system.  You can still keep track of statistics by using IMail's 
daily report to show you how many messages got stopped that way and 
adding them into your Declude results.

I think Kami sets IMail to delete a message after hitting a certain 
number of RBL's, this too may be a further savings if you are careful 
about it.  You could probably get rid of over 50% of your traffic that 
way and leave Declude to do the heavy lifting for what's left over.  I'm 
not yet familiar with this setup yet since I just upgraded, but I'm sure 
Kami would explain how he has it working.

BTW, on non-gatewayed domains, I'm pre-whitelisting about 15% of my 
traffic now because of WHITELIST AUTH (most of it) and AUTOWHITELIST ON 
(from the Web mail address book, but this can cause some false 
negatives, especially if people have their own E-mail listed, however 
they aren't very likely at all to have included a bulk mailing spam source).

 Another idea would be to block SBL with IMail 8 so that stuff never gets
 to Declude.  SBL can be as much as 25% of my traffic, and I weight that
 in Declude so that it deletes on just that one hit.  This could
 potentially save you a good deal of processing power and be huge for
 your system.  You can still keep track of statistics by using IMail's
 daily report to show you how many messages got stopped that way and
 adding them into your Declude results.

Deleting messages based on a single test result is very bad advice.  No test
is 100% accurate, and in my experience they are typically less than 90%.  If
it works for you, and you and your users don't care about the legitimate
messages you are most likely deleting, that's fine.  But to make this
recommendation to others without the appropriate caviate is irresponsible.

Russ, a not too drastic option would be to run SA on a linux mail gateway
sitting in front of your IMail server and then track the hit=xx.x header
counts with Declude.  That's what we do here, and it has worked great for
us.  With this configuration you could also set IMail to gateway all
outbound mail to the SA box for all external mail delivery, thus taking this
load off of your IMail server.

Just a thought...

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] SpamD/SpamC for Declude

2004-01-13 Thread Matt




I think that I've pointed out the caveats many times over on blocking
with SBL. SBL is though more accurate than my system as a whole, and I
have never seen a true false positive with it.

I've asked this several times; has anyone ever seen a false positive
with SBL? I've not ever received a single reply to that question,
though this is the 3rd time I've asked it now.

I'm sure that human error can come into play, but they are the most
respected RBL out there by a mile, and if you find yourself listed on
SBL, there's a 99.99% chance that it is for good reason, and if not,
you need to get your IP out of these because you are surely being
blocked by many, many organizations. The only time that this should
happen is if you inherited a spam block and your provider didn't bother
getting the block delisted, or if you are unfortunate enough to have
hosted your server at a well known spam house.

This is the only RBL that I even weight at or above my hold weight.
I'm quite anal about false positives as well, but until someone points
out a flaw in SBL, I'm going to trust them absolutely.

I think your advice is well founded, however it is a generalization and
exceptions may apply.

Matt

Of  course,  you  could  also  (a) use a Windows-based gateway and run

use  a  Windows-based  gateway and offload all of your gateway, SpamD,
*and* Declude duties to it, (c) use a *nix-based gateway and run SpamD
on  that  with  Declude  as  the client...the point is that, if you're
going  to  buy  a  new box, it could be put to many purposes with your
choice  of OS. But your current hardware setup and load isn't going to
fly  with a new processor-intensive content scanner. You're maxed out,
and  the  least  painless  way out (from a skills standpoint) is still
going to cost some bucks.

[Declude.JunkMail] Log File Changes

2004-01-13 Thread Bill Morgan
Hi,

I am starting work on re-writing my log file analysis program for the
new format.  The information that I want to extract is:

Fail tests with weight
Total weight
Action Taken
From e-mail address
To e-mail address
Date/Time
File Name

I am assuming that for this information, I need MID log level.  On
visual inspection of the MID log file, it looks like this format is:

00/00/00 00:00:00 Qx FailedTest1Name:weight
FailedTest2Name:weight  TOTALWEIGHT = weight.
00/00/00 00:00:00 Qx Subject: message subject
00/00/00 00:00:00 Qx From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]  IP:
x.x.x.x ID: 
00/00/00 00:00:00 Qx FailedTest1Name:action
FailedTest2Name:action .

And for multiple recipients, the last three lines are repeated (not sure
why subject line is repeated?) for each user with the new TO address
appended to the previous TO line.  i.e.:

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Etc.

Are my assumptions correct?  

Thanks,
Bill

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Tests Used for Deleting?

2004-01-13 Thread Andy Schmidt
Hi Bill,

This is of course prudent advice in general.  Let me share my experiences
(I'm not at all suggesting that this applies to anyone else's scenario).

However, after a few years of tinkering, I did realize that (at least based
on messages received by my mix of business clients) *I* was able to use some
tests to outright delete 13% of all incoming mail (an additional 50% gets
deleted by weight):

BLITZEDALL  DELETE
NJABLPROXIES DELETE
AHBLPROXIES DELETE
SORBS-HTTP  DELETE
SORBS-SOCKS DELETE
SORBS-MISC  DELETE

MAILFROMDELETE
PERCENT DELETE

(At first I was using HOLD for these tests but after many months that I
never ever had to release a single held email.) 

Apparently, when someone is ignorant enough running an open proxy (or an
infected zombie workstation) on a particular IP there is a very low
likelihood that this particular machine is ALSO used as their legitimate
SMTP server.  

When someone uses an invented from domain or tries the percent hack to
force email routing - then it is our policy that the email should not be
processed.  (It's okay to use an unattended from mailbox - but there is
never a reason to use bogus domain names, preventing our server from sending
notifications or such.)

Of course, ideally I would want to hang up on those connections during
SMTP protocol - but unfortunately, neither Imail not Declude currently
offers that option.  (I'm using ORF from VAMSOFT to do exactly that on my
backup MX running MS SMTP (IIS), as lots of spam now gets directed against
the backup MXs).

 This is very strange.  Our log files show that 1.77i16 was uploaded twice,

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Log File Changes

2004-01-13 Thread R. Scott Perry

I am assuming that for this information, I need MID log level.  On
visual inspection of the MID log file, it looks like this format is:
00/00/00 00:00:00 Qx FailedTest1Name:weight FailedTest2Name:weight 
 TOTALWEIGHT = weight.
00/00/00 00:00:00 Qx Subject: message subject
00/00/00 00:00:00 Qx From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]  IP: 
x.x.x.x ID:
00/00/00 00:00:00 Qx FailedTest1Name:action FailedTest2Name:action 
.
That is correct.  Some of those lines appear at LOGLEVEL LOW, but to get 
them all, you would need LOGLEVEL MID (or LOGLEVEL HIGH).

And for multiple recipients, the last three lines are repeated (not sure
why subject line is repeated?) for each user with the new TO address
appended to the previous TO line.  i.e.:
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Etc.

Are my assumptions correct?
That is correct.  I'll look into getting the Subject: line to only appear once.

- Original Message - 
From: Matt

 I think that I've pointed out the caveats many times
 over on blocking with SBL.  SBL is though more
 accurate than my system as a whole, and I have
 never seen a true false positive with it.

 I've asked this several times; has anyone ever seen
 a false positive with SBL?  I've not ever received a
 single reply to that question, though this is the 3rd
 time I've asked it now.

Because people didn't respond doesn't mean anything.  All RBLs produce
false-positives.  How could they not, they are run by humans.

 I think your advice is well founded, however it is a
 generalization and exceptions may apply.

There are no exceptions when it comes to anything run by humans, there WILL
be errors.

Instead of applying a huge weight to a single test, why not apply a small
weight to may tests?  That way you at least get corroboration from multiple
tests, thus negating the human factor.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Tests Used for Deleting?

2004-01-13 Thread Bill Landry
- Original Message - 
From: Andy Schmidt [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 This is of course prudent advice in general.
 Let me share my experiences (I'm not at all
 suggesting that this applies to anyone else's
 scenario).

 However, after a few years of tinkering, I
 did realize that (at least based on messages
 received by my mix of business clients) *I*
 was able to use some tests to outright delete
 13% of all incoming mail (an additional 50%
 gets deleted by weight):

BLITZEDALL DELETE
NJABLPROXIES DELETE
AHBLPROXIES DELETE
SORBS-HTTP DELETE
SORBS-SOCKS DELETE
SORBS-MISC DELETE

MAILFROM DELETE
PERCENT DELETE

Other than the PERCENT test, I can produce false-positives from each of the
RBL tests listed above for everyday of the week.  I guess it depends on your
customer base and mail volume, but anyone running spam tests in an ISP
environment would be foolish and running great risk of deleting legitimate
messages by basing delete decisions on the results of any single RBL test
criteria.  And I feel that if you have a weight system available to you, why
take that risk at all?

Bill,

It appears that your entire list is from one source, Topica.

Search the archives for a discussion of Topica, how their lack of
message list verification results in lots of spam, and how they are
also a spam house, even sending spam from the same block of IP's. I
thought this was an FP at first, but this is more of the malware
variety. There's a good reason for Topica to be listed. I've
explained this one caveat many times here, but a spam house is a spam
house in my book.

You should have explained with your stats how these were mostly or even
all from the same source :)

Matt, legitimate messages are legitimate no matter

I think that I've pointed out the caveats many times
over on blocking with SBL.  SBL is though more
accurate than my system as a whole, and I have
never seen a true false positive with it.

  
I've asked this several times; has anyone ever seen
a false positive with SBL?  I've not ever received a
single reply to that question, though this is the 3rd
time I've asked it now.

Because people didn't respond doesn't mean anything.  All RBLs produce
false-positives.  How could they not, they are run by humans.

  
I think your advice is well founded, however it is a
generalization and exceptions may apply.

There are no exceptions when it comes to anything run by humans, there WILL
be errors.

There is a v1.77i17 that has been placed online to deal with 
this.  However, given the mystery caching problem, you may or may not be 
able to get 1.77i17 (we're still getting i15 when we try to download from

Yes; the pharmacourt.biz spammers have infringed on the Habeas intellectual 
property rights.  Habeas is going after them.  Until this dies down, you 
may want to temporarily comment out the WHITELIST HABEAS line in the 
\IMail\Declude\global.cfg file.  You should also report it to them (the 
spammer was nice enough to include the URL to report it at in the 
headers!).  Reporting is important because although Habeas knows that this 
has happened, they are collecting as much information as possible.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] 1.77i16 Live... Really!

2004-01-13 Thread Colbeck, Andrew
More weirdness.  It may only be mine.

I just used wget to fetch the current interim, which was 1.77i17 and when I
did a

declude.exe -diag

all looked good.  Then I copied it to the IMail server and tried there, and
got the report I'm putting in the attached text file.  From my log, it looks
like I started getting this:

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Topica and SBL

2004-01-13 Thread Matt




This took actual research to figure out :) Topica is absolutely a spam
house, and I wouldn't be at all surprised to see them populating their
database with addresses and list demographics from Topica.com. Many of
the lists that Topica sends out are auto-subscribed to by a bot that
they operate, so they are merely re-distributing much of the content.

Here's the SBL evidence file for the main Topica block:

http://www.spamhaus.org/sbl/sbl.lasso?query=SBL12236

Here's one of their blocks that I have blacklisted:

http://www.senderbase.org/search?searchString=66.180.244.0%2F25

Here's a nice evidence file from Google:

http://groups.google.com/groups?q=topica.com+group:*abuse*start=10hl=enlr=ie=UTF-8scoring=dselm=e1e3rvkq62pvs1mi997tamhk701s571m5a%40thor.wirehub.nlrnum=12

Here's what happens with their unconfirmed list subscriptions (4-9 year
old child porn list memberships):

http://groups.google.com/groups?q=topica.com+group:*abuse*start=20hl=enlr=ie=UTF-8scoring=dselm=200310170813.h9H8DauA024020%40jupiter.gwalter.demon.co.ukrnum=22

The SBL listing as well as Google Groups suggests strongly that they
are using their list business as a part of their address collection, or
in the very least they don't hardly at all practice a foolproof method
of verifying memberships in their lists as fake addresses get
subscribed, and on person even complained about getting subscribed to
something like 28 of their lists all at once as suspected retribution
for something, hearsay of course, but there's lots more, 5,480 matches
in abuse newsgroups in fact.

Topica -
http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=enlr=ie=ISO-8859-1scoring=dq=Topica+group%3A*abuse*btnG=Google+Search

And some other abuse newsgroup hits:

tpca.net -
http://groups.google.com/groups?scoring=dq=tpca.net+group:*abuse*
servitall.com -
http://groups.google.com/groups?scoring=dq=Servitall.com+group:*abuse*
pl00.com -
http://groups.google.com/groups?scoring=dq=pl00.com+group:*abuse*

These guys clearly front their listserv business as a way to enable
their spam operations, and spamming listserv operators take advantage
of their policies in order to gain entry into your system. How could
you possibly want to let this stuff into your server?

As far as the other SBL FP's that you said you have relating to
personal E-mail, I'd be very curious as to what the SBL listing said in
relation. SBL has an FP rate that far exceeds my own on my system.
I'd drop them substantially in weighting if I felt that their standards
were lacking.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] SpamD/SpamC for Declude


Bill,

It appears that your entire list is from one source, Topica.

Search the archives for a discussion of Topica, how their lack of
message list verification results in lots of spam, and how they are
also a spam house, even sending spam from the same block of IP's. I
thought this was an FP at first, but this is more of the malware
variety. There's a good reason for Topica to be listed. I've
explained this one caveat many times here, but a spam house is a spam
house in my book.

You should have explained with your stats how these were mostly or even
all from the same source :)

I think that I've pointed out the caveats many times

I've asked this several times; has anyone ever seen
a false positive with SBL?  I've not ever received a
single reply to that question, though this is the 3rd
time I've asked it now.

  
  
Because people didn't respond doesn't mean anything.  All RBLs produce
false-positives.  How could they not, they are run by humans.

  
  
I think your advice is well founded, however it is a
generalization and exceptions may apply.

  
  
There are no exceptions when it comes to anything run by humans, there WILL

Wow, what does any of this have to do with 
delivering legitimate messages rather than deleting them? I do not 
intentionally deliver spam from any source, including these - but I do deliver 
the legitimate messages sent from any source(ah, the true benefits of a 
spam weighting system). You, on the other hand, summarily delete anything 
that may come from a source of spam, whether the message is legitimate or 
not. I simply do not understand this philosophy, nor that you would argue

 That is correct.  Some of those lines appear at LOGLEVEL LOW,

 them all, you would need LOGLEVEL MID (or LOGLEVEL HIGH).
 
 And for multiple recipients, the last three lines are repeated (not 
 sure why subject line is repeated?) for each user with the new TO 
 address appended to the previous TO line.  i.e.:

 Etc.
 
 Are my assumptions correct?
 
 That is correct.  I'll look into getting the Subject: line to

 Bill... This is what I would like to do, but there are a couple
 issues/questions I have.

Russ, we should probably take this off-line.  But briefly:

 1.  How do I reject messages with an invalid RCPT TO: command?

There are a couple of ways you can handle this, depending on where you host
your IMail user database.

 2.  What size machine do I need?  Let's say I process 200,000 messages a
 day, and I want to plan for 20% growth before this box is retired.  I
 understand that fast hard drives and proper partitioning are still
 extremely important, but what about processor/memory requirements?  I'm
 guessing this would be pretty high need as well.

Personally, I would much rather setup two smaller gateway servers with equal
MX settings then one big gateway server.  The reason for this is that it
allows you to split the load and also be able to loose a server or take it
off-line for maintenance and still keep delivering mail.

Please contact me off-list if you would like to discuss this further.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] whitelisted

2004-01-13 Thread Colbeck, Andrew
Andy, Habeas has not been compromised.  Since Saturday, a spammer has been
using the Habeas warrant in the headers to get his junk past
configurations like yours.

This header text is easy to insert.  Note that the X-Mailer: header is also
being faked.  Each of the spams I've seen like this have come through a
zombie on a consumer broadband computer.  And is advertising one of three
domain names.

The general consensus is that you shouldn't WHITELIST on any easily forged

for this list for more discussion and sample configurations that have

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Topica and SBL

2004-01-13 Thread Matt




Bill,

If this stuff comes from the same IP, both good and bad, then how do
you tell it apart? Do you merely rely on content filters?

Their servers send lots of spam and they are well aware of the
problems. When you combine their semi-legit business with the fact
that they are spamming openly from 10 or more different address blocks,
and they use 100's of domains, I think the right thing to do becomes
obvious. I'm sure that this is what led SBL to finally list them.

The fact is that if I was knowingly selling bulk mail services to
spammers from my own server as well as sending personal E-mail from it,
you would be justified in blocking me. Topica's practices will
probably end up converting their service over to virtually all spam
over time, because legit senders will find their service to be a poor
choice based on their business practices.

The bottom line remains, Topica is a spam house, and on their supposed
legit service, they maintain relationships with known spammers despite
abuse reports. They are leaving us with no choice, because they left
us with no good way to differentiate. Topica is a bad, bad company.

Matt

Several spam emails are being whitelisted by declude, I didn’t know what was
causing it as I don’t have any whitelisting going on, until I noticed the
habeas header.

Am I correct in thinking that this spam messages got whitelisted because of
Habeas? And if so, what next step should I take other than turning off
Habeas whitelisting?

 Yes; the pharmacourt.biz spammers have infringed on the Habeas
intellectual
 property rights.  Habeas is going after them.  Until this dies down, you
 may want to temporarily comment out the WHITELIST HABEAS line in the
 \IMail\Declude\global.cfg file.  You should also report it to them (the
 spammer was nice enough to include the URL to report it at in the
 headers!).  Reporting is important because although Habeas knows that this
 has happened, they are collecting as much information as possible.

John,

That's part of it, but that part was only speculative. Topica does
harvest from the Web and newsgroups for their spam for sure.

Topica is a very shifty company that likes to juggle address blocks.
In order to avoid listings, they have an active campaign to encourage
people to whitelist their list servers. They were a Habeas client, but
they had their status pulled very quickly. Now they have tricked
Bonded Sender into list them, and I assure you, that won't last long
either if Bonded Sender wants to maintain any clout in the community
(be your own judge).

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] whitelisted

2004-01-13 Thread andyb
Hi,

If people can use Habeas headers to get their spam delivered, then Habeas
HAS been compromised.  To say otherwise is a symantic difference that I
don't care to debate.  Bottom line is that Habeus Warrant doesn't mean
anything right now.

As for a configuration like mine, as I said, this is included in the
default config files obtained directly from Declude.  Call me ignorant,
that's fine.  I have to trust the makers of the software to know what they
are doing until I find out/learn otherwise.

The purpose of the list is to share info.  I could have just  taken care of
this quietly but instead chose to share the issue on the list because if it
was happening to me, I'm sure it is happening to others.

I'm sorry if my tone sounds a little indignant.  I'm not a stupid person,
just a busy one with way too much information to process at times.

Thanks, Andy

Andy, Habeas has not been compromised.  Since Saturday, a spammer has been
using the Habeas warrant in the headers to get his junk past
configurations like yours.

This header text is easy to insert.  Note that the X-Mailer: header is also
being faked.  Each of the spams I've seen like this have come through a
zombie on a consumer broadband computer.  And is advertising one of three
domain names.

The general consensus is that you shouldn't WHITELIST on any easily forged
text, including the Habeas warrant.  Check the archive in the last few days
for this list for more discussion and sample configurations that have
shared.

On their website you can report the spam and they will go after them... in 
theory... but for now because so many people are bundling the headers in 
spam you should probably not whitelist Habeas headers.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Topica and SBL

2004-01-13 Thread Matt




I'm not deleting legitimate messages the last time I checked.

If my customers want to sign up for Topica, they can add them to their
Web mail address book. I figure that this is only a transition period
until Topica loses all of their legit business due to their practices.

Clearly, I am well aware of this issue :)

I'm much more concerned about the personal E-mail that you said was
also blocked by SBL. I would definitely consider dropping their weight
based on your claim that you saw 10 such messages in a day.

Also, don't assume that I am irresponsible in regard to weighting. I
watch my system like a hawk, and I use over 100 different tests, with
only two capable of deleting a message based on one hit (the other
being my own IP blacklist). When I find a problem, I always fix it,
though some need further verification and monitoring.

Topica may be harvesting those addresses from the legit messages for

Wow, what does any of
this have to do with delivering legitimate messages rather than
deleting them? I do not intentionally deliver spam from any source,
including these - but I do deliver the legitimate messages sent from
any source(ah, the true benefits of a spam weighting system). You, on
the other hand, summarily delete anything that may come from a source
of spam, whether the message is legitimate or not. I simply do not
understand this philosophy, nor that you would argue in favor of it.

all surprised to see them populating their database with addresses and

out are auto-subscribed to by a bot that they operate, so they are
merely re-distributing much of the content.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] *OT* Web dns management console

2004-01-13 Thread Hosting Support
Hi Nick,

I put together a simple one in .NET for MS DNS that uses SQL2K and the
dnscmd utility to manage the most common functions in DNS (adding, deleting
Host and MX records).  Note that it does currently require IIS, the .NET
framework, and SQL2K on the MS DNS server.  If you're interested, we can
talk offline to see if it is a fit for your needs.

 Except that you are contributing to their database
 of valid addresses so you get other spam and you
 are doing business with a spammer... even if it is
 a free list. The point that Matt makes.. which is a
 valid one.. is that Topica shouldn't be used by
 anyone because their existance makes spam even
 worse for all. You shouldn't enable spammers,
 and your use of their lists is doing just that.

Oh yeah, well let me know how that works for you when you advise your
customers and users that they cannot subscribe to legitimate lists hosted by
topica (and others) because some of there address space has been know to
send spam.  I'm sure that will go over real big.  When your customers are
ready to drop your services because of this, be sure to send them my way,
since I will always deliver their legitimate messages to them, no matter the
source, and make every effort to block spam from being delivered to them.

Guess what, the rules for ISPs and other businesses are different then those
that are applied to private e-mail domains like joshie.com.

I 
guess this goes towards where one chooses to draw the line - spammersvs. 
"organizations supporting spammers". Someone who knowingly gets involved with a 
spammer, should probably expect that their email will not longer be delivered 
reliably.

Similar to blocking an infected/Zombie machine by IP. I do realize 
that this machine could ALSO generate legitimate requests from my server - but 
it is up to them to fix their problem so that the block can be 
removed.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] *OT* Web dns management console

2004-01-13 Thread Hosting Support
Totally agree, John.  That's why the simple interface I put together has
multiple security levels: one for users that could get into trouble by
accidentally deleting their MX records and www, etc. hostsand another
for more educated users who can be trusted to manage those.  Generally
shared hosting users can get access to the simple things like adding and
deleting , and collocated customers can perform somewhat more advanced tasks
like MX and common host (www, ftp, mail, etc.) record management.

Overall, it saves us a small amount of support time and makes some of our
customers happy when they have the power to make changes themselves without
having to contact someone else to do it.

Yet, Declude (and DNSStuff) FAILS the same combination:

There does seem to be an issue with our SPF parsing when a: is used along

Obviously coming from someone that knows nothing about the IPS business.  I
would venture to guess that you do not even have the faintest idea of how
many legitimate lists topica hosts or you would probably be singing a
different song.

And again, it's easy to make these kinds irrational judgement call when the
only e-mail messages you will be affecting are those to your own little
vanity domain.

The passes are from a system that sends notification messages to customer

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] SFP is catching on...

2004-01-13 Thread Colbeck, Andrew
I appreciate the explanation Bill.  I won't be implementing SPF until it's
aged a little and I am confident that I understand it aright.

The score of 35 and 10 look like the same domain; were they to mail hosts
with different MX records?  I assume that the 39 score is separate because
of case-sensitivity in your reporting.

And now to go into SPF for Dummies territory, the mailfroms were
definitely spoofed, or in the normal course of events could have been
mailing list or greeting card invitations that unwisely put in the
sender's address in the mailfrom instead of their own?

[Declude.JunkMail] safe way to whitelist this

2004-01-13 Thread David Dodell
I get email from the susd.org domain on a regular basic, but they are
poorly setup.  The headers appear as such:
X-Declude-Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [204.228.60.250]
X-Spam-Tests-Failed: BASE64, HELOBOGUS, REVDNS, WEIGHT10 [10]
X-Country-Chain: UNITED STATES-destination
X-Note: This E-mail was sent from [No Reverse DNS] ([204.228.60.250]).
X-Hello: pyle.susd.org
X-Declude-Date: 01/13/2004 13:46:08 [0]
I have the domain setup in a reverse domain test, but that doesn't
negative weigh because they don't have a valid reverse DNS.
How can I whitelist this domain safely?

Scott, is there currently any way to distinguish between the following
unknown records:
- unknown (record exists)
- unknown (record does not exist)
Not currently (per the specs for SPF).  However, there have been people 
using SPF on other platforms that have been requesting a distinction, so 
this is something that we may incorporate.

It could be either.  However, the burden now lies on the greeting card 
sites (and in rare cases mailing lists) to fix their 
problem.  Specifically, the sites that have a problem are ones that let a 
web site user enter an E-mail address, and they use that address in the 
SMTP envelope.  Instead, they should be using their own address (which 
ensures that any bounce messages will go back to them).  If it is set up 
properly, it will work with SPF.  But, of course, there are some greeting 
card sites and similar sites (such as news sites) that aren't properly set 
up yet.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] safe way to whitelist this

2004-01-13 Thread Matt




Don't whitelist, negative weight if you are the administrator. There
are two things to go after, the MAILFROM, or the REMOTEIP. It appears
that the school district has only one mail server, in which case you
could create a filter file called PSEUDO-WHITE and add in the following
line:

REMOTEIP -10 IS 204.228.60.250

Alternatively if you are running the standard version, you can create
an ipfile with the following entry and weight it negatively in your
Global.cfg:

204.228.60.250/32

If you get susd.org E-mail from various sources, you can try a filter
file with MAILFROM, or a fromfile in JunkMail Standard. Choose IP over
the mail from address because it is never spoofed from what I can tell
(but you should never say never of course).

One other thing would be to review your weighting settings because
that's a little tight to be holding on IMO. I weight BASE64 at 3 and
HELOBOGUS as 4, though that is just one piece of the entire picture of
course. I suspect that this message came from Exchange Web mail, and
there are 3 Microsoft X-mail headers that you might want to be
counterweighting for failing BASE64 because Microsoft will base64
attach plain text in Web mail. Search the archives for "microsoft
exchange", I'd rather not post it again. When Scott comes out with
some "not" tests, you can help to protect from spammers exploiting such
negative weighting by adding some END statements to the filter file
since all of these have other required header elements that need be
present.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] safe way to whitelist this

2004-01-13 Thread DLAnalyzer Support
Personally I try not to whitelist.  If the mail comes from a few servers 
than you can setup a reverse weight IPFILE for there specific IP addresses.  
Whitelisting is very suspectible to forging.  I learned the hardway by 
whitelisting @dell.com and a spammer took me to town with that.  Now I only 
reverse weight on DNS or lower weight through an IPFILE.

That looks like a joke to me? A company that actually thinks email marketing

looks so phony they don't even have a email point of contact.. At least none
that I could easily find.  All I could discern is that they have a web site
via Canada and maybe a legit business address in California.
