Re: [Declude.JunkMail] 4.1 GUI

2006-04-23 Thread Mike Nice

Serge,
  There is not currently a manual or installation procedure for the GUI. 
You'll have to copy/move the files to a new IIS virtual directory and set 
permissions appropriately.


  While it is very nice, you'll also need to re-enter your current 
setttings if you don't want to accept the default settings.   There is no 
auto import from your existing text configuration files.


- Original Message - 


anyway, all seem working now, except for the GUI
can someone (including declude) tell me where to find it (and how to use 
it)

? is the a user manual for installin/using the new GUI ?

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: Max number of files in directory?

2006-04-12 Thread Mike Nice

I don't know what the limit is, but there is definitely degradation in
performance after a few thousand files.


  On NTFS systems, this is most likely app-related such as Explorerer where 
they have to deal with slogging through all the extra files, as noted by 
another poster.   An App opening a specific file will see almost no 
degradation because the NTFS uses a tree structure to maintain fast access 
to a file by name.


  There is a separate issue where NTFS doesn't recover unused directory 
space after deleting many files.  This only becomes an issue with files 
numbering in the millions

1.) Watch for a certain email processed by declude
2.) watch for one specific single file if it's placed by another

in the config-directory declude will reload once all config files
3.) write a little appliaction that can run as sceduled task and watch

Major problem on my server on 05/22/05 starting at 06:30 AM.
I do not think
this is caused by Imail or Declude as nothing has changed in
the 3 weeks.

It appears at 6:30 AM I started getting the 2020 event error
on the server
and repeating every couple of minutes. Imail services kept working but
Declude was not always working. 1 out of 10 messages would be
scanned with
no error by Declude Virus but the Junkmail log stopped at that time.
However, both the Sniffer and SpamCheck logs show that they
were scanning
messages as called by Declude.

Searching eventid.net finds a bunch of stuff. It appears to be leaning
towards adding a registry setting to decrease the default
amount of paged
kernel memory in use, but that is not a real solution.

I was able to log onto the console, but not able to open
anything so not
sure what was going on at the time.

Any one have any ideas?

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Interesting tactic..

2005-01-11 Thread Mike Nice
   The spammer sends out realistic messages that contain a URL flogging the
P I L L S site of the day.   Upon delivery, SpamAssassin etc. check the URL
in the message.  Not finding the URL in and RHSBL, and not able to get any
DNS info (such as DNS hosted by China), SpamAssassin has no information that
would flag the URL as bad.SpamTraps and manual spam reports are the only
thing that can flag this type of URL as spam, but since it is hard to
automatically tag as a spam URL it will likely escape.

  This spam technique makes the assumption that most people get up / into
work the next day and check their messages first thing.  At 6:00 AM the
spammer registers the domains and voila!  A valid web site in China to click
on.

   While I wouldn't necessarily want to associate myself with the spam a
spammer sends out, I can use the same sleazy techniques, minus the stolen
credit card: register with a registrar known to be soft on spam, provide
false contact information, and host it in China.  Put up a web page saying
do not buy from E-mail ads, etc.   When the spammer goes to register it
the next morning, he will be unable to activate the domain and out of
customers for that spam run.   Long term the spammer still can win that
battle, but this is a great way to irritate someone on the other end for
once.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Interesting tactic..

2005-01-11 Thread Mike Nice
One area I have seen this used are the 'spamvertized domains' in the body of
the message which would require a SURBL style test on the URL in the message
body.  Message headers, delivery, and MAILFROM are otherwise as valid as any
other spam; sometimes quite authentic.

- Original Message - 
 The problem, though, is that any anti-spam program that does RHSBL tests
 probably does MAILFROM tests as well.  So while the domain won't be listed
 in any RHSBLs yet, it will fail the MAILFROM test, which is likely to be
 weighted higher.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Spammers using virus infected computers

2004-07-17 Thread Mike Nice
Spam is most likely to be spread by a dormant virus rather than one that is
actively in the 'infect everyone else' mode.   In other words, spammers
probably contact their backdoor spamware while it is idle so they won't have
to compete with the virus spreader for bandwidth.   The question is, what
are the stats on the dormant period before spam starts?.   For dialup
users, this period is random and can be several weeks - after which they
won't be on the same IP.  This may be a good test for DSL senders however.

  Check their profile; if they have been a paying customer for several

Spammers never pay for something they can steal.

   Even if they are a new customer, they may have switched because of the
trojan slowing down their internet connection and they switched to you to
see if you were better.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] relays.osiriusoft.com

2002-12-20 Thread Mike Nice
One exception is the initial query - DNS implementations assume queries from
a random population, and don't search the active request list to see if a
request can be piggybacked on an outstanding request.   So each IP4R test
from a new IP generates a separate request directly to the RBL.

   Also, relays.osirusoft.com sets a negative cache time of only 10
minutes - E-mail from good IPs repeats the above procedure every 10 minutes.

   The good thing is that the next version of Junk mail will combine
requests to a single RBL!

- Original Message -
 Declude does NOT cache any results from these lookups, but the DNS server
 that Declude references DOES cache these lookups - just like any other DNS
 lookup - up to it's TTL.  Most DNS servers will cache both positive (I
 found an answer) and negative (no answer was found at the DNS server)
 results.

 If your DNS server is local - and your declude is busy - your local DNS
 server will have a rich cache of recent lookups it's already done.
 relays.osirusoft.com's default TTL is 2 DAYS.  That means unless you set a
 lower TTL in your resolver, if you recieve 1000 emails from a certain
 spammer IP within that two day period, your server will answer 999 of the
 queries from it's local cache.  Declude does not cache, but if a good
 percentage of Decludes lookups only involve your 100/1000 LAN (and not
 external lookups over the Internet) - performance will greatly improve.

Ditto with hotmail.com, yahoo.com, excite.com, msn.com, localhost.* and
netscape.com.

   This represents 5% of our blocked spam (it used to be 10%, but I guess
spammers that use that blaster aren't getting much response to spam
anymore).

 We are getting a lot of SPAM recently that have AOL addresses.  I
 checked one of them with SPAMCOP and I was surprised that it immediately
 indicated the IP is not an AOL IP, therefore it is forged.

 Is there any tests we can do to detect the same thing?  Could this
 actually be a good test to have for the big ISP's?

  I don't know if SMTP Auth leaves a signature in the header that can be
whitelisted, otherwise this test will throw out SMTP Auth - sent messages.

 WHITELIST @acsworld.net 12.4.184.3 (whitelist @acsworld.net messages from
 that IP address only).

 saying why did you spam me! and it would also help so the technical
 support staff wouldn't have to explain what's happening to everyone
 complaining about so and so sending them spam.

[Declude.JunkMail] Thoughts for future features

2002-05-19 Thread Mike Nice

We have had some customers ask for the capability to accept only from the
people in their address book (They use only Webmail).   Alternatively, I
have been toying with the idea of implementing the Tagged Message Delivery
Agent http://software.libertine.org/tmda/

We probably couldn't charge for it but the spammers continue getting
more and more obnoxious and this would cut 99% of spam out for some people.

[Declude.JunkMail] ORBZ - More info

2002-03-21 Thread Mike Nice

  Here's some more information behind the big mystery.

http://www.wired.com/news/business/0,1367,51218,00.html

The small city of Battle Creek, Michigan, wants to lock up an anti-spam
activist who it believes crashed its mail server.

Never mind that the town government was using a buggy version of the Lotus
Domino e-mail server, and that newer releases have fixed the problem. And
never mind that anti-spammers may have been conducting a routine scan for
possible sources of bulk e-mail. 


 I suspect they will regret this actionTee hee!!

 Hello,
 
 I need to implement JunkMail on my server of 9000 ISP customers.
 Currently I am running only BADHEADERS, SPAMHEADERS, and MAILFROM tests
 on a bounce command.  Can anyone recommend a better cfg file to use that
 will catch more spam and not catch any legitimate messages (hotmail,
 aol, etc)  Thanks.

Recently, 2 messages from a WHITELIST FROM address were held.
 
 Do an tests override a WHITELIST FROM setting?   
 Is the WHITELIST FROM case sensitive?   

  Thanks,

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Comparing Weight Configurations

2002-02-02 Thread Mike Nice

  I haven't given much thought to the rest of the config.  I basically got a
fresh copy of the example global and default files and fiddled with the
point system.   Other than that it was just choosing WARN and HOLD, with
WEIGHT being the only HOLD.

My WHITELIST is out of date and could probably be cut down quite a bit
now that I have tuned the other weights.


- Original Message - 

 Would it be possible for you to send me your global and your default files
 so I can compare them to mine. I do like that setup that you have and want
 to check on more.

[Declude.JunkMail] Spam Review program - Perl fragment

2002-01-27 Thread Mike Nice

Attached is a perl program I use to categorize spam subjects for review.  It
is a portion of an analysis batch file that addresses several other problems
such as moving the spam from the \IMAIL\SPOOL\SPAM holding area before
analysis so that the spam that pours in during analysis won't be deleted
without review.

The subject sort order might be integrated into the other full featured
VB spam review program.

 Sort order:

  1.) Alphabetical

  2.) Spam subjects beginning with , xxx xxx xxx...

  3.) Spam subjects containing multiple spaces.   I don't even need to look
at these since I've never seen a legitimate message containing spaces and
tagged as possible spam.  I wonder if any message containing multiple spaces
in the subject has ever been non spam.




# Summarize held spam by subject lines

my @fileList=glob(d*.smd);

my $spamCount=@fileList;

print Found $spamCount files\n;

my %subjects;

foreach $spamFile(@fileList) {
   getSubject($spamFile);
}

print \n\nresult\n\n;


foreach $spamSubj(sort(keys(%subjects))) {
  print $spamSubj: ($subjects{$spamSubj})\n; 
}

exit(0);






sub getSubject {
   my ($spamFilename) = $_[0];

   #print $spamFilename...;

   $subject=;
   open(SPAMFILE, + $spamFilename) || die Can't open file $spamFilename\n;
   my($keepReading)=1;
   while ($keepReading) {
  $line = SPAMFILE;
  if ((!$line) || ($line eq )) {
 # Blank line or EOF, terminate
 $keepReading=0;
  } else {
 $lcLine= lc $line;
 if ($lcLine =~ m/^subject:/) {
$subject = substr($line, 8);

for ($subject) {
  # Trim leading and trailing spaces
  s/^\s+//;
  s/\s+$//;

  # Change cr into space
  s/\r/ /g;
 }

 # If typical spam subject (Multiple spaces), sort to bottom by prepending 
FF character
 if ($subject =~ m/ /) {
$subject=\xff . $subject;
 }

 # If typical spam subject (begins with xxx, BUY THIS SPAM), sort near 
bottom by prepending FE character
 if ($subject =~ m/^(\w*),/) {
$subject=\xfe . $subject;
 }


$keepReading=0;

if (! defined($subjects{$subject})) {
   $subjects{$subject} = 1;
} else {
   $subjects{$subject} ++;
}
 }

  }

   }
   close SPAMFILE;

  # print Subject: $subject\n;

}
