Re: PLEASE, postmaster@debian.org, are you there?

1998-01-02 Thread Dr. Andreas Wehler
Hello.

1. Looking for a way to discuss the badmailfrom-list-problem I've
resubscribed the debian user list with my old uni accout.  Guess
what happened: I'm getting all posting twice now since a while (no
prices).

2. If postings are not permitted, the T-Online account is useless
with respect to debian.  So, this is a call for unsubscription.
But how does one unsubscribe a address listed in the badmailfrom
list?  (Sorry for the lengthy headers below).

3. T-Online runs a few local news groups, where just local topics
are discussed.  The Linux folks there are still a minority, but a
growing one.  Did I make something wrong when mentioning Debian as
the most mature and professional Linux distribution (IMHO) and
pointing to the debian homepage etc.?  The badmailfrom list
problem is going to give Debian a strange taste, if this sort of
protection will be permanent.

4. No, I'm not going to change my ISP tomorrow.

5. Assumption:
 When posting the first time from my uni account (in 1996 ?) I had
to reply an agreement with a few statements concerning spam and
netiquette etc, which was ok.  Wouldn't this be a more
professional solution than to just shield any posting from hosts
on the badmailfrom list?

6. What ISPs are on this black list today and which will problably
be tomorrow?  This could become of some interest to anyone.

7. Could someone please wake up the real postmaster (thanks,
Martin Schulze [EMAIL PROTECTED], for your statements so
far) ?

8. Yes, I would be glad if this thread could be ended with a
positive answer.

 Thank you.
 Andreas Wehler.

No, but as spam has come up the debian lists aren't excluded .  As we
couldn't tell the spammers not to use the debian lists we needed a different
mechanism.  I don't know exactly how the list has been generated but
I think it comes from spamdb and it's resources.  You might want to
check that out.

 Thanks for the answer.  Now, that the not-too-little ISP T-Online
is marked in the badmailfrom list, there come 2 questions. 

1. What exactly did cause T-Online to find itself on 
   badmailfrom list?  No just guesses please.

   The T-Online Team told me, they would have had a few
   problems with admins, who applied a faulty patch to
   sendmail which wrongly assumed, their canonical email
   address (envelope-sender!)  would be inadmissible.  In
   the moment they can't test it for debian.novare.net is
   not accessible (?).
If this is the case, please remove/modify that patch.
 
2. Under which conditions may T-Online recover from there?

 Thank you,
 Andreas.

No, we use qmail on master and there is a badmailfrom file.  It's
a real file containing hostnames.

Yes, t-online.de is listed in the badmailfrom list.  It has been added
due to spam I think.

What you could do against it is to get another provider.  I know that
there's at least franken.de and mayn.de in your area providing reasonable
access to the internet.
