Thanks everyone. Besides the RBLs I've added some TLDs in the Reverse DNS sections.

This includes filtering both the connection ptr name as well as the sender's address field(s). This is for a company with ~20 employees.

I do have the configuration tightly locked down, more so than you may be able to since we are not an international organization. I use with great success, bl.spamcop.net and zen.spamhaus.org as external RBLs with a block action. I also filter quite a few attachments and block anything I can't scan. I have a couple of content filters I created to help catch stuff that was missed. I do block *.br, *.cn, *ru but what really helped was blocking some of the new TLDs that have been released. *.pl *.zw *.lk *.mobi *.tw *.bg *.lt *.link *.asia *.top *.click *.in *.pw *.af *.ao *.ax *.az *.fr *.rocks *.ua *.ve *.xxx *.xyz *.sucks *.porn *.science *.guru *.ninja *.construction *.info *.work *.space *.ee *.be *.club *.webcam *.party *.wang *.win *.biz *.date *.faith *.website *.site *.uno *.review *.racing *.cricket *.help *.download *.bar *.bid *.careers *.email *.bn *.rs *.th *.blue *.black *.juegos *.photography *.solar *.zm This is a pretty cool website which details stats for the new TLDs. https://ntldstats.com/fraud -----Original Message----- From: listsadmin@lists.myitforum.com<mailto:listsadmin@lists.myitforum.com> [mailto:listsadmin@lists.myitforum.com] On Behalf Of Jake Gardner Sent: Friday, December 18, 2015 7:18 AM To: 'ntsys...@lists.myitforum.com' <ntsys...@lists.myitforum.com<mailto:ntsys...@lists.myitforum.com>> Subject: RE: [NTSysADM] Barracuda Spam fw appliance Thanks guys.
