Huh? Anybody using "SAV" to the connecting server, rather than to the sender domain's MX, isn't doing SAV. It's comical to confuse the two, if that's what they're doing. They might as well attempt to get an identd connection, or for that matter open an RTSP socket! They couldn't maintain such a system for more than a day, let alone two weeks. That was not what Katie was experiencing. Hers was a much more common side effect of unthrottled SAV combined with a Joe Job, which effectively resulted in a DDoS. --Sandy ------------------------------------ Sanford Whiteman, Chief Technologist Broadleaf Systems, a division of Cypress Integrated Systems, Inc. e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SpamAssassin plugs into Declude! http://www.imprimia.com/products/software/freeutils/SPAMC32/download/release/ Defuse Dictionary Attacks: Turn Exchange or IMail mailboxes into IMail Aliases! http://www.imprimia.com/products/software/freeutils/exchange2aliases/download/release/ http://www.imprimia.com/products/software/freeutils/ldap2aliases/download/release/ To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
