Re: Re[2]: DSN:Re: Re[2]: [Declude.JunkMail] A Question of Ethics
I can't believe you guys are agonizing over this "ethical dilema." it redicuolus... have you been so jaded by "popular opinion" of what is right or wrong that you let $$$ signs dictate what is right and wrong? Poronography and all the sick things that go with it ( i don't think i have to elaborate do I?) are PLAIN WRONG! Anyone caught "dealing" with it within our system is removed and banned instantly! no chance of appealIf you don't like the terms & conditions then leave!

In fact, in TN, a long-haul trucker won a worker's comp lawsuit against his employer for injuries suffered while having sex in his cab, driving down the road and he was hit by a train (the female "passenger", having no seat belt and not being seated in a passenger seat anyway, was thrown from the truck and killed). The first court ruled against the trucker (holding the belief that such behavior was outside the bounds of reasonable on-the-job behavior and as such, not a compensible accident). Higher courts ruled for the trucker - there was no written policy prohibiting such behavior and this person was used to doing this on a routine basis while performing his job (doesn't this make you feel safe, driving the freeway when it is full of trucks?). So, yes, without a written policy prohibiting certain behavior, you will probably lose in a suit. However, in any case, using porn email as "proof" of violating a written policy would probably also result in losing such a suit -- all it would take is having one person on a jury that has an email account of their own -- eventually, everyone gets porn email, it seems, and once on the list, the amount seems to keep adding up (we even get it on email accounts that were set up as a mailing list for internal distribution, that have never sent any emails out to the world). And much porn email can look as though it was asked for, substituting first names (gathered using many techniques) into long messages, using subject lines that look as tho you asked for the information (lures to get the email opened), etc. A better use of Declude would be to offer porn filtering (delete on detection) and spam forwarding (for retrieval of misclassified messages when necessary). Better proof would be simply browsing someones workstation and web surfing history (few delete such things and one of the worst cases I ever worked on was an attorney several years back that had installed compression onto his drives in order to make room for all the pornographic games, pictures, movies that had been downloaded and stored all over his official company computer).

Delog is good, there is a thread about a beta log analyzer "Log Analyzer - Comments Needed", sounds real promising. You might check those out.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] "Bounce" Action and IMail Server Relay
When the "bounce" action is flipped on, if a message fails a test with "bounce" associated with it does Declude.JunkMail tell IMail to reject the message during the incoming SMTP conversation (and not even accept it into the server) or does IMail actually accept the message and then queue the bounce message up in the spool to be sent back to the sender? If the latter, and the senders are spoofing their addresses, couldn't this potentially cause a lot of mail in "limbo" to build up in the spool folder? The key here is the "DO NOT USE THIS ACTION unless you understand FULLY that spammers will NEVER receive the bounce message." from the test description. IMail doesn't allow software to interfere with the SMTP transaction, so this is an actual bounce message, not a reject. The problem isn't that *you* have to deal with the E-mail in limbo, but that innocent victims will be getting bounce messages from you. -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

[Declude.JunkMail] "Bounce" Action and IMail Server Relay
Hi, Again, I was asked me an interesting question today which I did not have an answer for so I thought I would find out. Currently we "hold" all suspected spam but somewhere down the road we might be interested in rejecting the spam for even being received by our mail server. One JunkMail action which could accomplish this might be the "bouce" action. My question is this... When the "bounce" action is flipped on, if a message fails a test with "bounce" associated with it does Declude.JunkMail tell IMail to reject the message during the incoming SMTP conversation (and not even accept it into the server) or does IMail actually accept the message and then queue the bounce message up in the spool to be sent back to the sender? If the latter, and the senders are spoofing their addresses, couldn't this potentially cause a lot of mail in "limbo" to build up in the spool folder? The reason that I ask is this... Currently we are planning on offering Spam Filtering (once we finish testing) to our current e-mail hosting customers, i.e. those hosted on our IMail server. We also have a few customers who don't host e-mail with us but would probably be interested in spam filtering if we had it available. For those who don't host with us we were thinking we could let them relay their e-mail through our system, filter out their spam, and then send it on the way. I know this question might be better posted to the IMail Server discussion list but I thought I would try here first. Can IMail Server be configured to act as a relay in this manner? I don't have tons of experience with IMail (only enough to be dangerous), so forgive me if that's a silly question. If IMail can be configured as a relay for Incoming Mail as I described, do you know where the IMail interface I might configure it, or perhaps a piece of documentation that would outline this setup?

I know this sounds elementary but you yourself might want to make sure that Real-time File protection is enabled on their system and do a full manual scan.

Pardon me going off topic, but we've exhausted our normal diagnostics on this Outlook problem. I have two users (software developers) who both run Windows/Office 2000 and started having email trouble today. It doesn't send or receive, acts very sluggish, and when they check the Task Manager an executable named MAPISP32 is hogging the CPU. I know there's a worm named W32.magistr.24876 that sometimes takes this file name, but we're running Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition and both users are up to date on virus definitions.

I am finding that not all the headers are being inserted when the message is from an Internet domain and going to a gateway domain. That's normal. If the E-mail is not destined to an account on the IMail server, it is considered outgoing E-mail, so: XINHEADER X-RBL-Warning: Total weight: %WEIGHT% This header won't be added.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Need A Recommendation
Dear, Scott, et. al. Thank you very much for all of the recommendations. It is definitely my itent to learn how to do all of the possible techniques that people suggested when responding to my original e-mail, eventually. But for the time being I think I'll try the "block the E-mail based on the IP address" option that Scott suggested. It doesn't seem to be too far away in theory and execution from the SENDERBLOCK test that I am already running. Oh, how I wish I were more adventurous to try all of those other options right now that other suggested! > The primary other option is to block the E-mail based on the IP address > (211.241.219.3, from the top Received: header).

Re: DSN:Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Whitlist Compiler
The address is http://www.spammanager.com It might be a competing product for Declude, but it is not intended to be. It is a different approach however it also supports being used as a Declude test. Imail is not really our intended market, however since we use IMail ourselves, it was a natural place to start. (I hate #%&&$#%* SPAM!) We use it here in conjunction with Declude products however it will work alone. Our main push is going to be the gateway version which will work with any mail server and numerous mail servers at the same time, and is about 8-10x faster that using it in conjunction with IMail in our tests so far. We are also planning on adding support for Declude Junkmail and Spam in the gateway version as soon as we finish our initial alpha testing. There is a Declude specific version of SpamManager now available that does not have all the bells and whistles and simply returns result codes for Declude JunkMail. It is much less expensive.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Need A Recommendation
Dan, I have several tests I made myself, which if I wanted to, could drop to 2 or 3, however, here is what I would do. FWIW - I'm by no means an expert here, trial and error gets you through it. > X-Declude-Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [211.241.219.3] This line is your best friend! I have a fromfile list, which I would place the address in, I also have an IP list that I use to track repeat offenders. I'd put 211.241.219.3 in that list. If I see repeated mailings from that address, it eventually makes it to imails SMTP ACC list. Right or wrong, I don't know, but it's what I do and has worked well so far. Also, the email addy could be added to Imails kill list, but chances are they won't use that address again. Scott also mentioned the CONTAINS for body text etc. Also very useful for when they send mass mailings through compromised servers - different IPs but same messages. Comments gang? Too much?

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Need A Recommendation
Oh yeah, that IP (211.241.219.3) is from Korea. I use a dnsrbl that blocks all mail from Korea. I assign a weight of 14 it (that being the weight that triggers a "DELETE" action on our mail server). The dnsrbl is korea.services.net. There are others out there. I believe that kr.rbl.cluecentral.net also works. Unless you have a reason to get a lot of mail from Korea, you probably wouldn't be silly to block it. You could always just ACL 211.0.0.0/8 in your routers, though :D (Yes, I'm evil...)

If you go to http://www.declude.com/junkmail/manual.htm (and http://www.declude.com/virus/manual.htm for Declude Virus), you can download the latest configuration files. You would then have the choice of either [1] Using the new config files (and making any necessary changes from your old config files), or [2] Using the old config files, and adding changes from the new config files.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Where I'm At Now and Where Should I Be Goi ng?
I agree as an ISP that SPAMCOP alone does not work, but as a corporate email, it might be considerably different, positive or negative. Another test you might consider is SpamChk, I just started using it and it makes a huge difference in my mail box, I do need to tune it though, it trapps my Daily Dilbert and my rules delete at the level it's pushing it to. From what I see you can make it inch spam weight up or really push it. You can find it on the Tools page at www.declude.com.

Darrell -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dan Geiser Sent: Friday, February 28, 2003 11:36 AM To: Declude JunkMail Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] Where I'm At Now and Where Should I Be Going? Hello, All, I am pushing hard to learn as much about Declude.JunkMail as my time allows during the trial period. I think I installed on February 11th so I'm about 17 days into the trial. I was hoping to get some feedback from the list as far as things I might have looked over and might want to consider looking into next. Just to bring things up to speed... I am currently testing Declude.JunkMail Beta v1.67. I have isolated 2 "in-house" hosts (out of the 90 we have on our IMail server) for testing purposes. For each host I did some pre-analysis to find out what an ideal "hold weight" would be for each. For the first host, with the domain name NEXUSTECHGROUP.COM, I came up with WEIGHT13 as my "hold weight". For the second host, with the domain name PAGEROVER.COM, I came up with WEIGHT12 as my "hold weight". NEXUSTECHGROUP.COM probably gets about 90% legitimate e-mail and PAGEROVER.COM probably gets about 95% (or higher) spam e-mail. Once I set up the "hold weight" most spam immediately started being caught by Declude. Those who receive e-mail at those domains were very impressed. But there are still the occasional spam e-mail which make it under the threshold of the "hold weight". To further fine tune Declude.JunkMail I have done 2 things, one which was my idea (and I'm comfortable with) and another which was done to please my boss, which I don't necessarily agree with: Fine Tuning #1: This is the one I am comfortable with... In addition to the "hold weight" I also hold e-mail for a test that I created called SENDERBLOCK. SENDERBLOCK is defined in GLOBAL.CFG as "SENDERBLOCK fromfile D:\iMail\declude\senderblock.txt x 0 0". This is based upon the test described in the "Your own sender blacklists" section of the Declude.JunkMail. Whenever a spam e-mail slips under my "hold weight" I add the sender's domain (provided it's an obvious spamming domain) to this list. That test has helped to filter a few more spam e-mails out of my user's inboxes. Fine Tuning #2: This one I'm less comfortable with... My boss noticed that a number of the spam e-mails that were still slipping in underneath the "hold weight" were failing the test SPAMCOP. He wanted to know how come I wasn't filtering out all e-mails that failed that test as, from his estimation, the SPAMCOP test was using a list of known spammers. I explained in detail the information I gleamed from the Declude.JunkMail web site and the SPAMCOP web site about the accuracy of the SPAMCOP test. I know that the SPAMCOP test finds mail server which have a high incidence of spam to legitimate e-mail but that real e-mail can pass through those servers. I told him I'd rather continue to filter on "spam domains" (via SENDERBLOCK) and that I was trying to avoid catching any legitimate e-mail altogether. I'm trying to set the bar low enough so that a) most spam is caught,

When used directly with Declude JunkMail, it is run as a standard test, and Declude JunkMail works as it did before (except that it has a new test to work with). There is also a Declude-specific version (at https://www.cybersitter.com/Secure/order4dec.asp ) available, if you only want to run it as a test with Declude JunkMail. -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Fromfile or Filter file limits
In the below message, what exactly is a "filter file"? Is it a feature of Declude or a different 3rd-party add-on? If it's part of Declude is there somewhere in the documentation where I can read more about it? Is "filter" a type of test like "fromfile"? A "filter file" is just the file that is used with a filter in Declude JunkMail Pro (from the "Filtering" section of the manual). A filter test is very similar to a fromfile test, in that it uses a separate file with a list of things to look for. In the case of the filter, it is a bit more flexible, as it lets you look at specific sections of the E-mail (such as just the headers, return address, or even the reverse DNS entry of the remote mailserver), and also lets you assign different weights for each line in the filter file (so you could assign an E-mail with a subject containing "Read my spam!" a different weight than an E-mail with a subject reading "This is not spam", for example). -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Need A Recommendation
OK, below I have included the headers for an e-mail that one of my users forwarded to me. I have removed the username... >From <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Fri Feb 28 00:58:23 2003 This is one option that you can filter on -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] is the return address of the E-mail. The advantage of filtering on this is that any E-mail from this address will then get caught. The disadvantages are that the spammer can send from another address (which wouldn't get caught), and that the return address could be a legitimate user's address that the spammer used without permission (but it is unlikely that the person whose address was used would be sending you E-mail). Received: from mdkpower.dkpower.com [211.241.219.3] by pagerover.com with ESMTP (SMTPD32-6.06) id AA7C27540134; Fri, 28 Feb 2003 00:58:20 -0500 The primary other option is to block the E-mail based on the IP address (211.241.219.3, from the top Received: header). The advantage of this is that you will block any E-mail that the spammer sends from that IP, regardless of the return address they use. However, the disadvantage is that spammers will often use open relays, and switch from one to another fairly often (and other spammers have 100s or 1,000s of compromised computers that they can send from, each with a different IP). You can also try setting up a filter based on other parts of the E-mail. For example, at least one of our customers has a filter file that contains the line "SUBJECT 3 ISBLANK", which would add 3 to the weight of the E-mail if the subject was blank (as is the case here). -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Fromfile or Filter file limits
Title: Message Hello, All, Just trying to expand my own internal KnowledgeBase. In the below message, what exactly is a "filter file"? Is it a feature of Declude or a different 3rd-party add-on? If it's part of Declude is there somewhere in the documentation where I can read more about it? Is "filter" a type of test like "fromfile"? Thanks In Advance, Dan Geiser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Original Message - From: Kami Razvan To: JunkMail List Sent: Saturday, February 08, 2003 10:51 AM Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] Fromfile or Filter file limits Hi; Is there anyway possible to set a flag if a filter file reaches a certain limit in weight? We have setup several filter files and each for specific actions. It would be nice to be able to assign a limit weight (upper allowable) for each test. If that limit for that file exceeds then to take a certain action. Right now it is not possible to know how much of the total weight is from which test. For example: We have tests for: Test 1: URL's found in the body Test 2: Language found in Subject Test 3: Phone numbers found in body Test 4: Words found in body I think some of the false positives are based on individual weights exceeding a certain limit. But if we could have individual tests trigger a certain weight if a certain limit is reached then we can play with the weights a lot more effectively. So: Word 1 - weight 1 Word 2 - weight 1 Word 3 - weight 1 Word 4 - weight 1 Then: If Weight = 4 Then Weight = 500 If the limit for this filter file reaches 4 then total weight is 500 This way we can have a little more freedom in fine tuning our tests. Thoughts? or can we do this already and I don't know it? Regards, Kami
RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Where I'm At Now and Where Should I Be Going?
Speaking of SPAMCOP, one option would be to increase the weight that that test applies. Then you will block mail that fails that test and another, but pass mail that fails only that test.

Hello, All, I am pushing hard to learn as much about Declude.JunkMail as my time allows during the trial period. I think I installed on February 11th so I'm about 17 days into the trial. I was hoping to get some feedback from the list as far as things I might have looked over and might want to consider looking into next. Just to bring things up to speed... I am currently testing Declude.JunkMail Beta v1.67. I have isolated 2 "in-house" hosts (out of the 90 we have on our IMail server) for testing purposes. For each host I did some pre-analysis to find out what an ideal "hold weight" would be for each. For the first host, with the domain name NEXUSTECHGROUP.COM, I came up with WEIGHT13 as my "hold weight". For the second host, with the domain name PAGEROVER.COM, I came up with WEIGHT12 as my "hold weight". NEXUSTECHGROUP.COM probably gets about 90% legitimate e-mail and PAGEROVER.COM probably gets about 95% (or higher) spam e-mail. Once I set up the "hold weight" most spam immediately started being caught by Declude. Those who receive e-mail at those domains were very impressed. But there are still the occasional spam e-mail which make it under the threshold of the "hold weight". To further fine tune Declude.JunkMail I have done 2 things, one which was my idea (and I'm comfortable with) and another which was done to please my boss, which I don't necessarily agree with: Fine Tuning #1: This is the one I am comfortable with... In addition to the "hold weight" I also hold e-mail for a test that I created called SENDERBLOCK. SENDERBLOCK is defined in GLOBAL.CFG as "SENDERBLOCK fromfile D:\iMail\declude\senderblock.txt x 0 0". This is based upon the test described in the "Your own sender blacklists" section of the Declude.JunkMail. Whenever a spam e-mail slips under my "hold weight" I add the sender's domain (provided it's an obvious spamming domain) to this list. That test has helped to filter a few more spam e-mails out of my user's inboxes. Fine Tuning #2: This one I'm less comfortable with... My boss noticed that a number of the spam e-mails that were still slipping in underneath the "hold weight" were failing the test SPAMCOP. He wanted to know how come I wasn't filtering out all e-mails that failed that test as, from his estimation, the SPAMCOP test was using a list of known spammers. I explained in detail the information I gleamed from the Declude.JunkMail web site and the SPAMCOP web site about the accuracy of the SPAMCOP test. I know that the SPAMCOP test finds mail server which have a high incidence of spam to legitimate e-mail but that real e-mail can pass through those servers. I told him I'd rather continue to filter on "spam domains" (via SENDERBLOCK) and that I was trying to avoid catching any legitimate e-mail altogether. I'm trying to set the bar low enough so that a) most spam is caught, b) no legitimate e-mail is caught and then c) filtering further for actual identified spam e-mails. He thinks it's too much overhead to add each domain name whereas I think over time as I add more and more domains to the list the number of domains I have to add will go down considerably. Needless to say I gave in and just started holding for the SPAMCOP test because I really didn't feel like taking the time to turn him over to my spam blocking philosophy.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Where I'm At Now and Where Should I Be Going?
In our experience as an ISP, this was our INITIAL reaction (based on my personal mailbox), However SPAMCOP turned into about 50% accuracy system wide, and we had to move to at least 2 RBL tests failed to hold, or SNIFFER. It would be a good idea to run the sniffer (http://www.sortmonster.com/sniffer/) trial as well. What declude is currently passing through sniffer should catch most of. -Tom -Original Message- From: Darrell L.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Declude REVDNS test
What information / location in the e-mail headers does Declude use for the REVDNS test. It uses the appropriate Received: header (based on your settings in the \IMail\Declude\global.cfg file). By default, it will use the IP from the first Received: header. However, by using the IPBYPASS/HOP settings, it could use a different Received: header. For example, if your backup mailserver is at 192.0.2.25, and you have a line "IPBYPASS 192.0.2.25" in the global.cfg file, then if an E-mail came from your backup mailserver, the second Received: header would be used. Does Declude use the DNS server in the global.cfg file to make the query ? By default, Declude JunkMail will use the first DNS server listed in the IMail SMTP settings. However, if there is a "DNS" line in the global.cfg file, Declude JunkMail will use the DNS server listed in that line. -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Hijack
Is it possible to tell Hijack to not store messages from certain IPs Yes. You can use the "ALLOWIP" option to do that. For example, if you add the following line to the \IMail\Declude\hijack.cfg file: ALLOWIP 192.0.2.25 then Declude Hijack will allow unlimited E-mail from 192.0.2.25. also once the messages are stored in the hold directory is it possible to have hijack send all messages from that IP as if it would have done so the first time? No, but we are working on something to send them automatically. In the meantime, there is a tool listed at http://www.declude.com/tools that we have been told will allow you to rename the files automatically (when you remove the initial part of the filenames, so they begin with a "Q" or "D", they can be moved back to the spool). -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
