This is somewhat off-topic but does relate to spam/email as these Email web form exploits seem to be yet another method that spammers have found to junk up inboxes...
Just wanted to hear how others are being hit by this latest scam. As an ISP that hosts hundreds of websites that use Email web forms, we have had lots of forms come through with fake email addresses throughout the form (see the article below for more info): http://www.anders.com/cms/75/Crack.Attempt/Spam.Relay Here's an example (shown on the website above) of what these "exploited" web forms look like when sent via email from the web server: -- snip -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="===============1588588624==" MIME-Version: 1.0 Subject: 40d7e77 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] bcc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --===============1588588624== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit yyo --===============1588588624==-- ] [EMAIL PROTECTED] --/snip-- Just an FYI as I'm sure many others will or have already encountered this annoying issue. - Chris ------------------------------------------ Chris Gauch Systems Administrator Digicon Communications, Inc. http://www.digiconcommunications.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.roaringpenguin.com MIMEDefang mailing list [email protected] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
