In ninja I can add rbls directly. In this case I added 2.0.0.127.b.barracudacentral.org I can nslookup this from my exchange server. All of my traffic hits an internal dns which is forwarded to qwest. Which no one sees outside of here. I will have to go back and read how this is supposed to work. Maybe I get lucky with a phone call to them. thanks

From the fine print at the bottom of the form that you filled out: "Enter the IP addresses of name servers (DNS servers) that will be making queries. Separate each address with a comma." No offense, it is really fine print. You can't use the Quest servers for this, because Quest won't know to ask Barracuda....and they can't because that would mess up everyone else that uses Quest. You need to set up your own DNS server, or tell the Ninja to talk directly to Cuda. I don't have Ninja but I would think you could tell it to do this... ________________________________________ From: Eldridge, Dave [[email protected]] Sent: Monday, May 18, 2009 7:58 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: barracuda dnsbl I thought they wanted what my exchange server looks like to the world. Qwest hosts our dns records. Is that the name servers they want? I did get an acknowledgement back. -----Original Message----- From: Kennedy, Jim [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, May 18, 2009 5:42 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: barracuda dnsbl Did you get confirmation from Cuda that your registration had been accepted. I think they need to authorize your DNS server...your Ninja is doing lookups against the DNS server that you had authorized right? Check the IP address of the sending server's ip address with an nslookup from the DNS server...using baracuda's server for the lookup and see if you get the hit...... ________________________________________ From: Eldridge, Dave [[email protected]] Sent: Monday, May 18, 2009 7:20 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: barracuda dnsbl Anyone using the free barracuda dnsbl for spam help? I have a very annoying spammer that Ninja partly deals with. I never see any emails but an attachment get quarantined and I get a warning email every time. Lots of them. I can't figure out why the emails get blocked but the attachment and then the warning still gets in. When I use mxtoolbox to check the domain names barracuda is always at the top of the list flagging them. I use spamhaus and others but they don't flag these. Go figure. After registering at barracuda I put the following in my ninja rbl lookups. 2.0.0.127.b.barracudacentral.org. I am still getting these blocked attachment warnings.
