Hi,
got an interesting spam last night, the offending header is thus:
> Received: from polaris.uk.insnet.net (194.177.174.245)
> by ice.gradwell.com with SMTP; 28 Mar 1999 22:23:41 -0000
> Received: from unknown (1Cust103.tnt4.krk1.da.uu.net [208.254.1.103])
> by polaris.uk.insnet.net
now, polaris.uk.insnet.net is my secondary mail relay. the spammer
will have tried to deliver this mail to ice.gradwell.com, however, it
will have been blackholed because I'm running rblsmtpd using the DUL
MAPS list to filter my mail.
Now, I rejected the mail, so it was delivered to insnet. I assume
that I then accepted the mail from my insnet relay, and thus I got
the spam.
Given that rblsmtpd only ever defer's mail, and it doesn't actually
reject it (to give sys admins time to fix their broken systems) is it
likely that the spam is going to reach me via my relay every time?
If so, would it be possible to have rblsmtpd actually bounce the mail
for people on the dul list?
It seems you can't win really :-(
peter.
