I wrote the HELOISIP test.  It's not a DNS test.  Rather, it will tell 
you if the HELO or REVDNS of the incoming message has an embedded IP 
address.  While not 100%, this is often an indicator of a spam message 
from a dynamic IP address.  You can download it from

A few days before the move, change the TTL on the existing DNS records 
to something very short.  That way, once you change the IP address, 
there's a better chance that the fresh data will go out.

but I had also thought about converting it to a store and forward
server so that the mail will get delivered to the new server quicker.
 

Not a bad idea, either.

That's really the most common sense approach, isn't it?
There's been an almost hysterical reaction to the ICS announcement. 
People have right to be angry  disappointed over it; but traffic on he

only make Cadillacs, does that mean your Chevy is suddenly un-drivable?  
Your exiting iMail installation isn't going to stop working just because 
your service agreement ran out.  I mean, are there really any show 
stopper bugs in iMail right now?

Of course, we have a poly-chromatic equine if you are (or will be) in 
the market for additional server licenses.  In that case, it would be 
prudent to look at some competitor's offerings (Verio, Merak, others).  
Maybe you'll even find one you like better than iMail.  As for losing 
Declude, that's not really an issue.  Even if Computerized Horizons 
takes 6 months to come out with an iMail independent Declude version 
(which I am certain they are working on), you could still use a small 
server running the iMail 8.xx  declude that you already own as an SMTP 
relay for all the new boxes.

I am doing gateway anti-spam scanning for a school which has GroupWise
as the e-mail system. We are seeing many e-mails going to students that
are not there anymore which then creates an NDR at their end which then
floods their system .
Now is it possible to do one of two things:
1) Get a current list of people (staff and students) and somehow only
allow mail to those recipients. In a filter you would have to use an
ALLRECIPS check perhaps with a negative number, although not sure how
this will delete the bad mail since I have nothing to add to the score
when the old e-mail address comes up.
2) I think what I would really like to do is work on building up a list
of old students getting mail and then if the mail is addressed to them
delete it. So something like ALLRECIPS 100 CONTAINS
[EMAIL PROTECTED] in a filter but the problem I see with this is if
the mail is addressed to both an old student and a current student/staff
then it would still trigger and then delete the mail.
Anyone have any other thoughts on this or better ways to make this
happen?
 

My guess is that you have forwarding turned on for the IP address of the 
GroupWise server.  Mail for that domain (we'll call it 'theschool.com') 
comes in to your iMail box. A lookup in your iMail server's HOSTS file 
yields the IP address of the GW server, and the message is forwarded.

This would probably be easier (easiest?) using iMail aliases.  Set up a 
virtual domain on your iMail box for 'theschool.com'.  Don't add any 
users yet.  Add an entry to the iMail systems HOSTS file, substituting 
the GW server's IP address:

192.168.1.1  gw.theschool.com
Now for legitimate users of the GroupWise system, add an alias to the 
'theschool.com' domain:

UserName = [EMAIL PROTECTED]
With this setup, legitimate mail is sent to the correct address, and bad 
addresses are rejected at the iMail server -- no bounce traffic, just a 
closed connection.  This can also be a useful tool if the GW 
administrator want to limit who can be a legitimate 'internal' mail 
users, but not receive mail from the outside world, or if they have some 
crazy urge to have all badly addressed mail sent to a particular address 
(the iMail 'nobody' alias)

You might be able adapt one of Sandy's utility scripts to import the GW 
LDAP directory directly and automatically to the iMail aliases list.

[Declude.JunkMail] Useful external test?

2004-08-16 Thread Bud Durland
Lately, I'm seeing a bunch spam that has sender address like so:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
The host/domain part is variable, but the left-hand part is always 
'bounceto', then 5 digits, then 10 digits. I use Junkmail Standard (and 
hence no fancy filtering).  I'm thinking of writing a custom test to 
look for sender addresses in this specific format.

Does anyone else see these kind messages?  I'll probably make the test 
available for download when I've got it working.

[Declude.JunkMail] Domain forwarding

2004-05-07 Thread Bud Durland
We may be setting up a separate mail server for a new venture by our 
company.

I'd like to use our current iMail/Declude server as a gateway to the new 
server.  We are using DecludeJM Standard.

Setting up iMail to store-and-forward the mail for the new server is 
easy enough.  I just want to make sure I have my ducks in a row on the 
Declude side.  The on-line manual sez that Declude will treat the mail 
for the forwarded domain as outgoing, and claims that the standard and 
pro versions can do this.  BUT, when I look at the section for outgoing 
messages in my GLOBAL.CFG file, it says that only it only applies if I'm 
using Pro.

The manual goes on to say that I could also set up a domain specific 
config file in a different folder (c:\imail\declude\ForwardedDomain.com, 
for example).  But, now I'm wondering if the DecludeJM Standard version 
is enough, or if I need the Pro version.

Although Declude JunkMail Pro is supposed to be required for gateway 
E-mail (as in your setup), that's because those E-mails are considered 
outgoing (and the outgoing actions in the global.cfg file do only work 
with Declude JunkMail Pro).  The per-domain settings of Declude 
JunkMail Standard, however, would let you get around this (by having

Scott;

Thanks for the info.  This implementation is probably 3-4 months out, so 
I have time for planning and so forth.  This also made think that if  
the Declude Gateway product should ever happen, being able to 
configure it to process  send mail to different mail servers based on 
domain would be cool.

220.185.227.109?
Obviously an IP address is not a valid domain so it fails the HELOBOGUS
test?
It failed the HELOISIP test because the domain was an IP address?
 

Yes.  It would be more correct to say that HELOISIP failed because the 
domain _contained_ an IP address.  205.150.108.8.this.is.a.host.name 
would also have failed HELOISIP

It failed the HELOISIPX test ... not sure why since there is no reverse
DNS to parse?
 

It failed HELOISIPX because the host name is a pure IP address.  
205.150.108.8.this.is.a.host.name will *not* fail HELOISIPX.

In the next release, both tests will not fail host names bracketed IP

Matt wrote:

I have a few suggestions that you might want to consider.

The first one would be to skip processing of the message and just have 
Declude pass off the HELO as an argument to your script.  This can be 
done with %HELO%.  This will speed processing and ensure that the HELO 
comes in the proper context.  Declude can be configured for IPBYPASS 
settings which are used to skip over gateway mail servers and 
forwarding servers so that you have the HELO of the computer that is 
actually sending the E-mail.


That's a great idea!  Not sure why I didn't think of that in the initial 
implementation

Combining both of your tests into one program instead of two would 
also be useful.  You can use any code over 10 for this.  Declude also 
will only call the script once if the command is the same, and it will 
determine which test would be failed based on the result code that is 
returned.


For a non-zero test, I thought any non-zero result evaluates the same.  
I have considered configuring it to take a parameter to determine if the 
X test should be used.

The last thing that I'm not very clear about is the logic of the 
detection.  


Fairly straight forward:  for HELOISIP, convert dashes (-) to dots 
., strip out anything that's not a number or a dot, see if there's 4 
octets of numbers = 255. I'm not sure why Serge's example failed, I'll 
test later today.  It is possible that there would be a FP from a host 
name like host11.rack2.location3.bldg4.example.com.   His example 
(alias-1.c10-ave-mta1.cnet.com) should have become 1.10.1, and not 
failed the test -- only 3 numbers.

The HELOISIPX test only does the last step -- no tinkering with the 
content first.

I have a custom filter called DYNAMIC listed in the beta section of my 
site


Unfortunately, I don't have JM pro, so...

It's extremely unlikely that you would miss detecting a zombie using 
the reverse DNS entry as the HELO if you ignored hits below 20 because 
there aren't many ISP class A's in use below that level (I think just 
IBM), an you have 4 chances to hit a number above 20.

You're right, although ATT is in there as well, and they have a few 
internet customers, I think.

The pattern that you identified is of course a very nice addition to 
spam fighting.  Thanks!


We all try to do our part; thanks for the kind words and good suggestions!

Markus;

Thanks for the detailed feedback and kind words.  I haven't had time to 
the study our numbers (and I believe our statistical universe is much 
smaller than yours), but generally speaking I'm pleased with the results 
we're seeing here.

For those who are interested, I'll be posting this test for download  
from my web site (http://bud.thedurlands.com) this weekend Don't look 
for it earlier than Sunday, but I promise it will be there.  There will 
be two executables.  The current one remains unchanged.  The additional 
test, called HELOISIPX only fails if the HELO is a pure IP address:

 Received: from 12.107.134.252 [69.6.65.63] by mrpcap.com with ESMTP

I created this because I see quite a few messages that use an IP for the 
HELO, (and often it is MY mail server's IP).  I have never, ever, not 
once seen such a message that wasn't spam, so on my system that test 
will be weighted quite heavily.

Markus Gufler wrote:

Two days ago Bud has announced HELOISIP as new external test.

After trying this test now for 36 hours I can report the following results
for 04/15/2004
Processed messages: 9832

Hold as Spam:  4728  (48% of all messages)
Detected by HELOISIP:  1340  (28% of hold spam / 14% of all messages)
FP's from SURBL:  55
All of this 55 legit messages has had a final weight below 60% of our hold
weight and so hasn't caused any real FP.
91% of all spam messages catched by HELOISIP has already reached a weight 
200% of our hold weight. So having a possibility to skip this external test
if a certain weight is already reached should significantly save resources.
Good test!

[Declude.JunkMail] New test

2004-04-14 Thread Bud Durland




I am testing a small external test program. A message fails the test
if there is an discernable IP address in the HELO entry of the
message. These fail the test:

 Received: from host-68-212-107-146.msy.bellsouth.net
[68.212.107.146] by mrpcap.com
 Received: from ip-62-129-160-91.evhr.net [62.129.160.91]
by mrpcap.com
 Received: from acs-24-154-41-142.zoominternet.net
[24.154.41.142] by mrpcap.com

Only the bolded part of the line (HELO name) is tested. Basically,
dashes become 'dots', and anything other than numbers and dots are
stripped out. If what remains looks like a valid 4-octet IP address,
the test fails.

These entries would NOT fail -- stray number make the location of the
IP ambiguous

 Received: from wbar3.lax1-4-8-227-083.dsl-verizon.net [4.8.227.83]
by mrpcap.com 
 Received: from c-24-125-42-12.va.client2.attbi.com [24.125.42.12]
by mrpcap.com 

For testing, I set it up with 0 weight and a HOLD action. So far, it
has not flagged anything that was not spam.

If anyone is interested in trying it out, let me know. I'll probably
be putting it up for download from my web site later this week.

the port forwarding page, you can specify that connections from a 
specific address, on a specific port, should get forwarded. (i.e., port 
25 traffic only from your server gets through).

Most of the firewall stuff can be configured via web browser, including 
blocking a specific IP address.  About an hour of surfing on their BBS, 
and I figured out how to get to a lower level config file that gives me 
greater granularity over allow/block rules, but for your immediate need,

If you type \IMail\Declude from a command prompt, it should show 
1.78i9.  If not, you aren't running the latest interim release, and 
will need to copy the new Declude.exe file to the \IMail\ directory.
The system responds:

So far so good.

Also, make sure that the BANEXT EZIP line isn't on the last line of 
the file (in any text file, you should be able to move a cursor to the 
line below the last line).


BANEXT EZIP is in the middle of the file; and it seems that the system 
is ignoring it.  When BANEXT EZIP is in place, all zip files are allowed 
through.  I sent eicar tests from www.declude.com/tools, both static and

get shunted to the virus holding area.

[Declude.JunkMail] Declude log files

2003-11-28 Thread Bud Durland
I have a program that reads and archives iMail log files to a SQL 
server.  I'd like to add the capability to archive Declude log files in 
a meaningful manner.  I'm studying the log files (LOGLEVEL set to MID), 
and I've noticed something I don't understand.  For example (lines 
edited for brevity):

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 SPAMCOP:7 SORBS-SPAM:8 MAILPOLICE-BULK:10

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 Msg failed SPAMCOP ... Action=IGNORE.

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 Msg failed SORBS-SPAM  Action=IGNORE.

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 Msg failed MAILPOLICE-BULK... Action=IGNORE.

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 Msg failed AHBLDNSBL  Action=IGNORE.

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 Msg failed WEIGHT10  Action=IGNORE.

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 Msg failed WEIGHT20  Action=IGNORE.

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 R1 Message OK

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 Msg failed SPAMCOP  Action=DELETE.

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 Msg failed SORBS-SPAM  Action=IGNORE.

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 Msg failed MAILPOLICE-BULK  Action=WARN.

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 Msg failed AHBLDNSBL ... Action=IGNORE.

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 Msg failed WEIGHT10  Action=HOLD.

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 Msg failed WEIGHT20  Action=DELETE.

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 Subject: A holiday gift anyone would love - digital camera

11/28/2003 11:56:50 Q7e4a069f00606ad1 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]  IP: 64.88.151.68 ID: 

This entry appears to be processing file Q7e4a069f00606ad1.  However, it 
looks like the file was process twice, and that it passed on the first 
run.  I'm especially curious about why the first time out, WEIGHT20's 
action is IGNORE, but on the second it's action is (correctly) set to 
DELETE.   Might I have something mis-configured?

That is because there were two recipients, whose settings were different. 


Now I know I must have something set up wrong.  We're using Declude 
JunkMail lite, and to my knowledge there is only one set of 
configuration files (global.cfg and $default$.junkmail).  The message is 
question (as far as I can tell) was addressed to only one recipient, 
though I was doing some debugging using iMail's copy-to feature to 
send copied of e-mails to a filecopy type address.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Wildcard kill list entries

In version 8 you can have wildcards in the kill list but only before a
qualified domain.
Imail 8. kill list e.g.

@*.mail4you678.biz
@*.maildeliverynow.com
@*.mailestate.com
@*.mailexpect.com
@*.mailsprites.com
@*.mailthankyou.com
 

The way I understand it, having the leading '.' on the domain name is 
significant.  If you have this entry in your iMail kill list:

@*.mailthankyou.com

It will stop mail from this address:  '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'

But will *not* stop mail from this address:  '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'

To stop the first example, your kill list entry would have to be 
'@*mailthankyou.com'.  The side effect is that it would also stop mail 
from '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (i.e., anything that ends in 
'mailthankyou.com').

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: google.com not returning correctly

I have a customer that has 2 computers behind a d-link router
implementing NAT.  One computer works fine and can goto www.google.com
just fine.  The other computer, however, cannot.
This can be caused by a virus modifying the HOSTS file, and adding an 
entry for google, etc.  Edit the hosts file to remove any reference to 
sites that don't seem to be working. Usually, the only entry is 
'localhost', but you may have legitimate network specific changes.

On Win2k:  c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

OnWin9X c:\windows\hosts (I think, might be c:\windows\system32\hosts)

On WinXP c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] [OT] iMail 6.06 behind firewall

I know this is off-topic, but I've attempted numerous times to put our
server behind a firewall, but upon doing so, the queue grows to an enormous
proportion and the only way to clear it is to remove it from behind the
firewall.


Some firewalls apply the same filters to both incoming and outgoing 
traffic, others have separate filter rules depending on direction.  If 
the build up is outgoing messages, it sounds like you firewall is one of 
the latter type -- bugs check in but the can't check out

Make sure that port 25 is open *outbound*.

[Declude.JunkMail] Dopey question

2003-09-15 Thread Bud Durland
Ok, here's a easy one from a declude newbie.

Are the config files whitespace agnostic?  Are tab and space the 
same thing?  can I have more than one separating the various columns of 
parameters?
