Dear Members and Friends,


  
 This will be an emotion packed meeting as spam is something we all truely
love to hate.

April General Meeting


Open Source based Spam Filtering with Realtime Updates


Speaker: Mark Leonard


The increase in botnet-originated spam in late 2006 threatened to overwhelm
the mail servers of several of our clients. With modifications to
pre-existing open-source software, we have created a system that allows any
spam-blocking technology (eg SpamAssassin) to update a firewall in realtime,
thereby reducing the need for resource-intensive filtering. 

Mark Leonard is the president of M&J Leonard Consulting Ltd (MJL), a small
firm that specializes in system and network administration. Current clients
of MJL include Evolvs Media, Webcore Labs, Paper Thin Walls, iStockPhoto,
Davinci Broadband, and Theatre Junction. Prior to founding MJL, Mark has
worked as an administrator for IT firms such as Critical Mass, Evolvs Media,
Webcore Labs, and iStockPhoto. MJL is currently responsible for e-mail
systems with over 1000 domains, 10,000 users, handling over 2 million mail
deliveries per day.
