I've wrote a simple program that'll pull the $info about an ip address or email address and inform me if it is black $listed. If it gets a positive hit from 3 of the 5 different 'relay' $type service checks then I add them into the access list and the email $into the kill list. Over 95% of the ones I've pulled are spam/porn $without a doubt. About 25% of the list was from spam relay servers $without a valid dns. I'd say I'm about sure as anyone can be on this $mess. Our small usage email server is 'gathering' more spam/porn as $Scott estimated 90/10 and it is more than frustrating - disheartening to $be more specific. $ $~Rick $ $ $___________________________________________________________________ $Virus Scanned and Filtered by http://www.FamHost.com E-Mail System. $ $ $Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html $to be removed from this list. $ $An Archive of this list is available at: $http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ $ $Please visit the Knowledge Base for answers to frequently asked $questions: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/ $ Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
