CBL:RE: Re[2]: [Declude.JunkMail] Content Rules plus/vs. Sniffer?

2004-06-18 Thread Markus Gufler

Maybe Pete can provide some tips what would be good combinations.

Like IP4R + SNIFFER = good because SNIFFER make's no DNS lookups
But not FILTERX + SNIFFER because SNIFFER checks for this already.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Weight Ranges

2004-06-18 Thread R. Scott Perry

How much extra processing to an e-mail does adding a bunch of weight
range statements like:
WEIGHT1019  weightrange x x 10 19
WEIGHT2029  weightrange x x 20 29
WEIGHT3034  weightrange x x 30 34
WEIGHT3539  weightrange x x 35 39
I really just want these just to report on from the logs rather than
take action on them during e-mail processing. My guess is that it should
not take too much CPU.
You are correct; the weightrange tests use only a negligible amount of CPU 
time.

Also if I so not want these tests to show up in the %TESTSFAILED%
variable then would I add
HIDETESTS WEIGHT1019 WEIGHT2029..
And would I need to put in the $default$.junkmail file
WEIGHT1019 LOG
Correct.  Note that you could simply not include the WEIGHT1019 line in the 
$default$.JunkMail file, which would have the same effect.

Personally I like to have it written down in the .junkmail file so that
there is no confusion about the test and if it is being employed etc.
The KISS principle.

I seen this post below and wanted to implement the TESTSFAILED to exit out 
of one of my body filters based on if another test was already triggered. 

Is the below line correct (assuming REVERSEDNSFILTER is one of my filters 
that occurs before the filter I put the below line in)? 

TESTSFAILED END CONTAINS REVERSEDNSFILTER 

[2] When that line is matched does it show in the logs?

 But I can chime in that SKIPIFWEIGHT bypasses about 80% of my e-mail that is 
 obviously spam. TESTSFAILED ENDS for friendly domains/revdns drop off about 8% of 
 e-mail that is most likely not spam, leaving about 12% of the e-mail that I run body

 Scott, 

 I've got a lot more BODY filters than Dave has, though I don't feel that
 they are excessive.  I probably have about 1,500 BODY searches, but with
 SKIPIFWEIGHT they only run about 25% of the time. 

 If Dave is using Declude Virus, I would also look there for the issue.
 Anything besides F-Prot and ClamAV in daemon mode will chug a server on
 a large attachment and it will use up far more processing than Declude
 JunkMail, but it will keep the Declude instance alive for longer.  On
 about 65,000 messages a day currently, we generally see from 2 to 10
 Declude processes running at one time with both F-Prot and AVG enabled
 (much less with just F-Prot).  Disabling AVG results in our average
 processor utilization dropping by 1/3 to 1/2 on heavy load hours. 

 Matt 

 

 R. Scott Perry wrote: 

 
  One instance of Declude, then two, then three, all in the 25%+ range.

  It does sound like it is the large files that are causing the problem.
 
  One option would be to temporarily disable the BODY filter with the
  200 lines in it, to see if that prevents the problem with the high CPU
  usage in Declude JunkMail.  That could indeed be causing the problem.
 
  The other would be to use the debug mode (LOGLEVEL DEBUG in the
  \IMail\Declude\global.cfg file) and waiting for one of these files to
  be sent.  We can look at the debug log file entries to get a better
  idea of where the high CPU usage is occurring.

I was wondering how reliable the ip4r lookups are.  There seems to be a
lot of SPAM that is only failing one of the ip4r test (SORBS, SBL, AHBL,
etc) and no more of the test, hence delivering the SPAM.  Is it safe to
increase the weight of all these test to my deletion weight in order to
stop them from being delivered or are there some false positives that
may be caught?

[Declude.JunkMail] Grouping Syntax

2004-06-18 Thread Andy Schmidt
Hi Scott:

Just thinking out loud. I currently use filters to group multiple test
results. It works fine - but it's not very intuitive to your new customers.
I also don't like maintaining external files where it doesn't offer any
other benefits.

How about the following GROUP...GROUPEND syntax in Global.cfg:

OPENRELAY   GROUP   OR  *   5   0

SORBS-SMTP   ip4r   dnsbl.sorbs.net 127.0.0.5   0   0
AHBLRELAYS   ip4r   dnsbl.ahbl.org  127.0.0.2   0   0
NJABLRELAYS  ip4r   qwdnsbl.njabl.org   127.0.0.2   0
0
DSBLSINGLE   ip4r   list.dsbl.org   *   0   0
ORDB ip4r   relays.ordb.org *   0
0
KUNDENSERVER ip4r   relays.bl.kundenserver.de 127.0.0.2 0   0

*   GROUPEND

By definition, each test could only be part of one group. 
Nested grouping would not be supported
One could define either OR or AND condition for the group.


This may be a simple way to address some of the frequent request to
combine tests with AND and OR without having to introduce a complete
scripting language.

Hi,

I have used filters to summarize categories of ip4r and other tests.

All the open relay tests will fail ONE filter.  So whether one or 4
black-lists say it's an open relay - it will only get ONE weight.

All the DUL/DUHL will fail ONE filter. So, whether a dial-up or dynamic port
is listed in one or many black-lists - it will only get ONE weight.

This technique allowed me to check against MORE blacklists AND define a
higher weight for each class of blacklist.  I don't have to fear that just
because a dial-up port is widely known it will suddenly fail JUST on that.

What happens in this case where the email is routed through several servers

that it received it from. It appears that Declude would know about the other

The CMDSPACE test, though, it an odd test -- it is very rare for a

What happens in this case where the email is routed through several servers
to get to my user.  Does Declude check all the paths or just the last one
that it received it from. It appears that Declude would know about the other
routes because they are mentioned in the headers.
That depends on how you have Declude JunkMail set up.  By default, Declude 
JunkMail will only scan the IP that connected to you (which is what most 
people historically have done with anti-spam software).  However, Declude 
JunkMail is very flexible; you can have it bypass gateways/backups of 
yours, and you have it scan multiple hops if you want to.  Normally this is 
only necessary if either you have gateways/backups, or if you have people 
forwarding E-mail from another address that does not scan the E-mail for spam.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] What's wrong with this header?

2004-06-18 Thread Imail Admin
We're still running Imail 7.15 -- I have yet to see any value in upgrading
to 8.x -- so is there an easy way to do the whitelisting of local accounts
for IMail 7.x?

Also, what would you think about lowering the weight for CMDSPACE from 8 to
4?

Ben

[Declude.JunkMail] ROUTETO and SUBJECT Line Marking

2004-06-18 Thread Goran Jovanovic
Scott,

I think you are going to tell me that I cannot do this but I am going to
ask anyway.

I have a client who wants me to send all SPAM to a specific e-mail
address (gateway scenario) so no problem WEIGHT10 ROUTETO
[EMAIL PROTECTED] but it appears that I cannot do an ATTACH nor can I mark
the subject line. I really need a way to put something in the subject
line. I do the following with the spamattach.eml file

***[SPAM]***[21]***Wild Saturday SuperBonus: Get 2 FREE Cameras  Save
77%

A static marker and the weight. Do I have any options for this? Can I
use a unique spamattach.eml file per domain? Anything?

Thanx
