Heard of MAPS? If not, check out http://www.mail-abuse.org/. The MAPS people maintain a set of IP lists: DUL - IP addresses known to be allocated to dialup users RSS - IP addresses known to have open mail relays RBL - IP addresses controlled by active spammers, or organisations tolerant of spammers. This RPM configures the obtuse smtp daemon of e-smith 4.1/4.1.1 to refuse to accept email from these addresses. To enable use of the filters, set the service properties you want: /sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop smtpd DUL block /sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop smtpd RSS block /sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop smtpd RBL block then update the filters of smtpd: /sbin/e-smith/signal-event email-update The RPMs can be found in my contrib area (ftp://ftp.e-smith.org/pub/e-smith/contrib/charlieb) at: RPMS/noarch/e-smith-obtuse-smtpd-maps-0.1.1-02.noarch.rpm SRPMS/e-smith-obtuse-smtpd-maps-0.1.1-02.src.rpm Again, don't use on a mission critical server, don't walk on thin ice, and enjoy. -- Charlie Brady [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.e-smith.org (development) http://www.e-smith.com (corporate) Phone: +1 (613) 368 4376 or 564 8000 Fax: +1 (613) 564 7739 e-smith, inc. 1500-150 Metcalfe St, Ottawa, ON K2P 1P1 Canada
