I don't however believe that the intentions were to snipe customers away from Declude, but instead to provide a value-added solution to those of us that require an address-validating gateway or pre-scanner of some sort. His company has of course previously offered a plug-in for Declude, and publishes a blacklist that many around here are making use of as well. I don't believe that they are looking at this product as a big money maker for them, or even a money maker at all. Even programs like Sniffer has some potential of competing with Declude, though both are of course stronger as a result of working together. It would be good for Declude to offer a gateway solution of some sort or find a partner to do so. Matt Sanford Whiteman wrote: I can't believe what is apparently permissible on this list.

This is our experience as well. I've used the suggestion of manually restarting the queue run every hour, but that's a rather ugly kludge. I have no idea how Declude would be influencing the queue like this, since I thought that that operation came *after* any Declude functions, but we did not have this problem prior to the upgrade, and with the Postfix box getting rid of 99% of the distributed dictionary attacks, there's no other explanation for an expanding balloon of queued mail that sits there unless I start directly using the web interface spool control to send them. -- A.

[Declude.JunkMail] JunkMail and Virus Mailing List Etiquette
We have refrained from setting rules on our mailing lists but the time has come to remind subscribers of a few basics. The mailing lists are designed to provide a forum for all of us to better learn and understand issues that are being faced by the community • Do try to think about the message content before you send it out. • Do make sure that the content is relevant to the recipients. Nobody likes to receive junk email. • Do be polite. Constructive criticism is usually welcome but blatant abuse is not. • Do trim any quoted message down as much as possible. • Do ensure that you have a relevant Subject line. • Do include a brief signature on your email messages to help the recipient understand who it is from, especially if you are dealing with someone you do not know very well. • Do be careful when replying to mailing list messages. Are you sure you want to reply to the whole list? • Do remember to delete anything that isn't needed or is trivial. • Do remember to post bug reports to [EMAIL PROTECTED] where they will be logged and tracked. • Don't conduct arguments on the mailing list. • Don't make personal remarks about third parties. There have been some recent comments about advertising third party applications on the mailing lists and the rule that should apply is: “If the product being discussed is not a competitor to Declude, SmarterMail or IMail and can enhance the effectiveness of our users then it is an appropriate topic. This includes such applications as Sniffer, DL Analyzer and iPlus Info Browser.” Barry -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

[Declude.JunkMail] Adding text to Subject of FORWARDED e-mail
Can Declude, IMAIL (or anything) add text to subject of an e-mail that is being forwarded to an outside e-mail address? I have too many users (that I am not allowed to stop) forwarding their e-mail to AOL. Of course some SPAM slips through and they hit report spam effectively reporting my server as SPAM. I would like to add something to the subject of these e-mails so that they know it was from Prudential Rand and MAYBE, just maybe, they won't hit that stupid useless button Thanks - Marc --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude Virus] --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude EVA www.declude.com] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Adding text to Subject of FORWARDED e-mail
With Declude you can add footers to text messages, and Sandy has an add-in that can add a footer to HTML messages. Or you could write a script to run as an external test in Declude (or plug it directly into the mail handling workflow) to parse the message and put a statement in the body of the message if it is being forwarded to an AOL address. You may have to check the registry to determine if it will be forwarded, though. I don't think you'll see that in the message itself due to the forwarding not occurring until after the message is delivered to the mailbox or alias.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] ANN: SMTP Gateway
I see Alligate as an excellent compliment to our Imail 8.15/Declude 1.82 setup. I for one was thankful to learn about it through this list, as we've been struggling with finding an SMTP filtering gateway to sit in front of our working, stable Imail/Declude setup. I didn't have any prior experience with Alligate or Brian so my reading of the announcement was strictly informational. I don't see Alligate being a competitor to Imail or SmarterMail. It doesn't provide pop3, imap, webmail, or anything of the things that our customers call their mail server. It could compete against Declude. Except it works at the initial SMTP connection level (Pre processing) whereas Declude works after the SMTP connection is complete (Post processing). If Declude offered a stable pre-processing solution, I for one would sign up immediately. As I am not aware of any information from Declude stating they have a solution for this, we've all had to look elsewhere (5XX, Vamsoft, IMGate, etc). Dictionary attacks are killing us, as is the volume of spammers hitting our Imail box. ANYTHING to minimize what Imail/Declude has to process, without costing and arm and a leg, or a forklift upgrade is welcome! Alligate is a step above the 5XXSINK, by including tarpitting, detailed text logs, secondary SMTP AUTH port, connection blocking, etc. To me it's the right solution at the right time. IMGate wouldn't work for us because my staff doesn't do *nix, and I don't want to be the only one to support the box ;) I've got to sleep sometimes. Since we let our Imail support lapse and are holding judgment on SmarterMail until v3 is released, we're in a technical holding pattern while the spammers continue to assault our servers. I don't think I'm alone, which means there is an opportunity for someone and a potential market. While I love all this stuff, I have to eat too, and don't fault anyone for turning my pain into their financial gain so they can eat, if the value proposition is right. R. Scott Perry got assaulted on the Imail list repeatedly for years for pushing his wares. Imail had a gap-in-functionality, Declude seized the moment and profited by patching that gap. I was thankful for his repeated input/arguments and purchased his product - against Imail's own later offering. I hope Declude isn't struggling - they are vital to our business. I also hope that others aren't silent about other available options, competitive or otherwise. This list is so great for learning - where else can one go to learn more about real-world, ISP-level email delivery? Sorry for the ramble, just had to put my .02 in...

216.9.248.49 is listed in SpamCop, since at least 5am PST. See: http://www.spamcop.net/w3m?action=blcheckip=216.9.248.49 I would guess because of bounced viruses (e.g. the latest round of Bagle that started last night). The page above notes that a neighbouring IP (from which I have received good mail) has had a SpamCop listing previously (but not currently).
