Hello *,

I am spamed on two of my servers <abuse> and <postmaster>.

Exactly, today afternoon I was runing into a Quota problem  because  the
two above E-Mails have usesd a whole partition of 10 GByte which  I  had
reserved for systemuse.

The two mailservers are outbound only (with spamassassin and  clamav-ng)
and only authenticated users from my network can use it.

According to RFC2142 section 1. paragraph 1:

    Various Internet documents have specified mailbox names to
    be used when reaching the operators of the new service;
    for example, [RFC822 6.3, C.6] requires the presence of a
    <postmas...@domain> mailbox name on all hosts that have an
    SMTP server.

Since this two Mailservers will NEVER receive messages from the Internet
must I use the two above E-Mails?

Realy, I can not handel over 8000 mails per day in  this  mailboxes  and
this server was already listed, because  there  was  someone  sending  a
"test message" containing spam to it which was rejected and gone into  a
honny pot of one of those RBL's.

Also this two servers are targeted by bots or trojans using  fake  error
messages with "Return-Path: <>" and "From: <>".

Another thing is, that I have <[email protected]> but  I  become  heavyly
spamed.

How do you handel such case?

I know a bunch of ISP's which you can not more reach because the <abuse>
box is overquota.  In Strasboug is one which get per  day  over  200.000
spams on abuse and making this address non-usable.  One of the ISPs  has
activated RBL-Checks and rejected one or two  days  messages  and  where
very fast listed on <abuse.rfc-ignorant.org>, even the rejected messages
where from dynamic IP's send directly and listet in several RBLs.

Maybe I am militant but if I get one of this spamers I will kill him/her

It is not realy funny to have an Internet access of 2.5 Mbit, with ~8000
legitim messages but over 110000 spams

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
