Title: TCP port 25 traffic?

Yeah, I think its called SPAM, not new though.... Try connecting to your server via telnet on port 25 and see if you can get an interactive connection.   type in the following commands: expn vrfy   and see if they are accepted.  If so, your server is open to possible attack.   telnet://192.168.0.1:25 will open a telnet session to your server on port 25   Joel R.

I've seen an unusual amount of connection attempts to TCP port 25 on a particular system in my network as of the past 48 hours or so. It's only this one system, and it's multiple source IP's. Is there anything new for SMTP? Thanks for any info... josh
