Whilst were on the subject of *nix smtp daemons, is there any good free anti-spam/anti-virus filters that work well in combination with a qmail/vpopmail setup? -----Original Message----- From: Steve Evans [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 07 October 2003 21:09 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: how does everyone fight this spam? I'll third it. Though with a Sendmail/MailScanner/SpamAssassin combo. MailScanner does anti-virus also.

We have been running Postfix with SpamAssassin for months. It works great.

Use Postfix/ Spamassassin in this environment. Postfix MTA allows you to put rules in to filter on expired addresses, known spam addresses, specfic information in the header as well as attachments. Spamassassin spam filtering itself is very good. Henry Schlarb "Most people, when they stumble across truth, merely pick themselves up, dust themselves off and walk away as if nothing happened."

Hi all. We are receiving a lot of these bogus messages every day - "bug notice", "failure message", "report", "error advice", "bug announcement", etc. Some of them have a fake Microsoft address in the from line. They seem to be generated by a virus. Our antivirus programs (SurfControl and NAVEX) catch and kill the virus, but the messages still get through. They don't seem to have any consistent subject or From address... It seems that other organizations should be affected too, I am just wondering how others are dealing with these messages. Thanks! _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&; lang =english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&; lang =english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&; lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&; lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
