Certainly, the ideal situation does not exist...

- webmail - I solved webmail (...delay between sending individual e-mails, restriction max recipients, login from some country... etc) - If you find that there was a leak credentials, I am blocking a legitimate user account (change password)... Important in this case is that through my server was not sent e-mails from foreign...

Thanks
Kind regards

Hi,

Just think about this: some real and legitimate user may have his/her
computer invaded, and used for sending non-authorized e-mails via
his/her authorized account. How can this be countered?

Because the computer IS in a non-restricted ip range, the user IS
authorized and everything else is fine but the e-mail itself...

A nightmare?

Is there something like antispam for *outgoing* e-mail?

Other approaches:

  * is it possible to ban any client but webmail? Uninstall outlook,
    thunderbird and the like, instead use webmail
  * is it possible to connect to smtp server using VPN instead of
    directly connecting?

I can think of no suggestion when it comes to a invaded computer, but I
believe the two suggestions above can be really difficult for a spammer
to work with your server, especially the webmail (the spammer will not
be able to use his/her programs to send e-mail if you use a webmail,
he/she will need to do it by hand, or adapt some auto-response keying
system to do it).

If you use vpn and webmail, it wil be more difficult still, because that
way no out-there computer will be able to reach your webmail system,
only the ones your users are using.

Also, consider that those suggestions represent changes on user culture,
and that is veeeery difficult to accomplish.

Best regards,

    Hi,

             I use the FW restrictions, but I can not block the relevant
    clients from foreign. Therefore, I need to block already
    authenticated clients, based on written:


    "Sometimes it happens that my legitimate user has an infected
    computer and occurs leak credentials, for example to Asia and then
    the attacker from Asia through my server sends e-mails, because he
    is successfully authenticated."

             I have to receive e-mails also from Asia...

        Hello,

        What about using iptables or other firewall ruling to rule out
        connections for SMTP from those CIDR ranges?

        Atenciosamente,
