i'm using a lot of spamtraps (on a particular installation on assp almost 50% of processed messages go to spamtraps)
easy to generate, just look at the logs of your real mailserver and collect data about non existing mailboxes (you'll be surprised of how many non existent addresses are in spammers lists) + add mailboxes on your domains that are closed (and return 55x) for more than 1 year + create and use on newsgroups, fake websites etc a few more addresses + use some unused domains just to collect spam. et voila', you have plenty of spamtraps. i run a simple script every other week on my real mail server that gives me a list of top spammed not-existant mailboxes. I just add them to my spamtraps. Really useful. [especially traps starting for aa and ab, many spam runs are in alphabetic order] btw, my main feed to PB are : helo invalid and forged (2 strikes and you're out) and spamtraps (13 hits to reach treshold) keep in mind that dealing with spamtraps is risky. There are lots of bad managed mailing list on shared IPs, so to keep the risk of false positives low you should use lots of them. hth marrco ----- Original Message ----- From: "Pascal Nobus" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, August 29, 2006 4:53 PM Subject: [Assp-user] Spamtrap to block IP > I've got some really good spamtraps (around 20), which work very well to > harvest spam. > However, if I check my logs, I see that mail from IP-X which sent mail > to spam-trap also sends about 10 other emails to our system. > Then that IP isn't used anymore (for at least a month). > > > So what I need is: > Tool that grabs the IP from the user that sends email to spamtrap. > Block this IP. > Remove this IP after 24-48h. > > Can this be done with making use of assp WITHOUT having to regenerate > the spamdb? > > > best regards, > Pascal > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Using Tomcat but need to do more?
