Thus, blocking the IP space by, say, adding a couple hundred new rules to iptables and blocking the whole country from my whole network, would be inappropriate.

[IMail Forum] Disappointment with Simple DNS
I have been a user of Simple DNS for several years, and many individuals on this forum have spoken highly of the product. I've been using Version 4.1 for a while, and finally decided to upgrade to version 5. What a disaster ... the conversion went smoothly, all the records, all of the configuration setting looked correct, but DNS lookup simply did not work. Tried over 24 hours to get a hold of SimpleDNS support via the support telephone number on their website and via email. After 9 hours, got a single line email back from them asking if I had a switch enabled, which I did. About 3 hours later, with no improvement, I reinstalled Version 4.1 and everything went back to normal. As requested SimpleDNS asked me to forward my configuration file ... it took them almost 72 business hours to answer that they couldn't find anything wrong ... they asked me if I could try some other things ... I told them I wouldn't do this without a telephone call, since I couldn't afford to take our DNS down for days awaiting email support. Asked if this could be arranged.After 48 hours no additional email. I have emailed them asking for a refund of my upgrade fees.With such a critical program such as DNS, there has to be a prompt support mechanism.Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that SimpleDNS can support their product properly IMHO. I guess I'm stuck on Version 4.1 for now.

[IMail Forum] How to log into Web Messaging from somewhere else?
I'm presently using Imail 8.1, planning an upgrade to Imail 10. Imail 8.1 will let you put the Web Messaging login form pretty much anywhere; in my case, I put it on the front page of our Web site, and it just POSTs to the real server's login.cgi page. People can check their email right from the front page, everyone is happy, works great. Imail 10 won't let you do this - pretty much any attempt to log in from somewhere other than /iclient/login.aspx is bounced back to /iclient/login.aspx. If you follow the Ipswitch Web forums, this is basically a duplicate of this post: http://forums.ipswitch.com/Topic47203-10-1.aspx I've already tried most of the obvious stuff. The old SSO hack isn't really a viable choice, because it leaves people's passwords, in cleartext, in the browser history. I've also tried various means of forging Referer: headers, tampering with __VIEWSTATE, and some basic web.config trickery to try to get out of the application framework, so that I can somehow put a login form somewhere else, and have it work. So far, nothing seems to be working properly. Since this is how basically every ISP I've ever visited does things (they have a big check your email right here form on the front page of their Web site), there's gotta be a workaround for this. I'm just not clever enough to figure it out. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Marc Rosamond wrote: One option you might consider is modifying the html for the login.aspx page. All the form fields and javascript need to remain there but you can add whatever images, text, etc. that you want. You would basically be making login.aspx be your main website page. Another option would be to display the login page inside of a html iframe on your main page. Unfortunately, our main Web site uses a lot of server-side features that would be annoying to reproduce on ASP.NET or Windows generally, so that probably won't happen. (And for historical reasons we'll be keeping Imail on port 8383; since we're run into a few folks whose firewalls block port 8383, that would basically make our front page invisible to them.) I'd already thought about the iframe route, but the existing login.aspx page is far too big to fit where it needs to go. (The present login form is basically just username and password, and fits nicely in a 125-pixel-wide column.) Won't login.aspx be overwritten the first time I do a point update anyway? That's really the only major downside I see here. (Well, that and all the folks whose ad-blocking software basically strips out all iframes, and the security paranoids who justly see iframes as a gateway to nasty cross-site attacks, and...)

It also uses Querystrings rather than form posts so just filtering form posts wasn't enough. 2. A simple SQL server update foils the attack. deny select on sysobjects to sql_login_of_your_app deny select on syscomments to ql_login_of_your_app deny select on syscolumns to ql_login_of_your_app deny select on systypes to ql_login_of_your_app Look up what user account is being used for web access, then execute the above update with that username. This particular attack gets table and field names from system tables. Denying select on those tables stops the attack. 3.

Re: [IMail Forum] hard drive clone software suggestions
From what I understand from their website, the minimum would be $699 for Acronis True Image Echo Server for Windows. I do not work for Acronis and have only had experience with their Home Edition which costs $49 and only $29 when I update to a newer version. Following are the links that tell me about the Server edition of their product: Version Comparisons http://www.acronis.com/enterprise/products/ATISWin/comparison.html Acronis® True Image EchoTM Server for Windows http://www.acronis.com/enterprise/products/ATISWin/ - Original Message - From: Evans Martin [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Imail_Forum@list.ipswitch.com Sent: Wednesday, March 05, 2008 5:52 PM Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] hard drive clone software suggestions So which license would be the minimum to support Windows Server 2003?

They have a free version (limited features, but does enough for me) in which you install on another machine, then you can set up different tests to see if it is online. For instance, I have mine set up to test for a POP3 connection (rather than sending a message through the server). If it connects, super.

RE: [IMail Forum] OT: Barracuda 200/400
My guess is that LDAP queries are cost even more than than SMTP RCPT TO queries. I should have been more clear - we use a separate LDAP server and don't query the mail server. If your BC is strong enough for your traffic and attacks, OK. If not, rather than upgrading the BC, you can put IMGate out front and greatly extend the BC life much cheaper than an upgrade, exactly the same as with IMGate and Imail alone. Putting something like IMGate in front of the Barracuda makes a lot of sense IMO; I did not intend to suggest otherwise. Just noting that the Barracuda does not have to hit the mail server.

RE: [IMail Forum] OT: Barracuda 200/400
Grant wrote; I would be interested in a screen shot of how you got this to work with IMail. Also, how do you keep the LDAP up-to-date? Seems to me that we had to sync it all the time for it to see new users. But it has been a while since we tried to get that to work. We use a separate LDAP server, not the mail server. We aren't actually running IMail any longer but I don't think it matters. We built a process that updates the LDAP server from the mailbox servers every 15 minutes. It's obviously not perfect; we do occasionally hear from a client that just created a new user that fails initially, but it works pretty well for us.

RE: [IMail Forum] OT: Barracuda 200/400
You don't have to set it up this way; our Barracudas do the lookup against LDAP - no impact on the mail servers AFAIK.

RE: [IMail Forum] OT: Barracuda 200/400
Does Barracuda really accept the WHOLE message before running its tests??? Depends on which tests you run. ;) The RBL/IP based tests and invalid recipient tests are run during the SMTP conversation - the scoring and virus scanning are done after the message is completely received, naturally.

[IMail Forum] Unable to Filter Twice?
Does Imail not let you filter mail twice? Here's the situation ... my main mail account firsts using inbound filtering to filter the subject You have Spam and forward it to another account on my system. In the second account, I try to filter it again, but this time to put it into a folder within the second mailbox. The second filtering does not work. Is it because the x-declude-rule line is already in the header from the first rule filter? Is there a way to filter on the first time to not only forward, but have it forward to another account/filter in one rule?

The reason I did this was because of the way my iPhone handles IMAP.It doesn't at this time allow you to select which folders you want to sync, so it ends up the all my spam / virus etc notifications, end up synching, when I really just want to see these on my desktop.

RE: [SPAM] RE: [SPAM] RE: [IMail Forum] OT: Backup Software
I totally agree the onus of security should be with the holder of data. In the UK we have the Data Protection Act which is very strict about what an individual or organisation can do with data held on an individual - which happens to be very little without that users consent. Our consumer law and other legislation is very biased towards protecting and preserving the rights of consumers and their data. Losses due to theft or carelessness can result not only on fraud against the person or company but can result in legal litigation to recover lost funds and compensation for uninsured and incidental losses. As Bruce wisely points out in his email it is vitally important to ensure that as custodians of user data we have a responsibility to consider the wider implications of making and storing backups, not just for data integrity's sake. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bruce Barnes Sent: 17 July 2007 17:54 To: Imail_Forum@list.ipswitch.com Subject: [SPAM] RE: [SPAM] RE: [IMail Forum] OT: Backup Software As someone who works closely with credit card and merchant services, we have been monitoring several high-profile losses in the UK, as well as the US, and, while US law certainly does not apply in the UK, there are other liability laws that apply to lost and stolen data that have made their way through the courts in the UK as well. With the present level of stored data, whether it's e-mail (as in the case of the US White House and our President who's aids allegedly lost e-mail data which was later recovered because other agencies routinely back up ALL government initiated e-mail content to remote severs) or employee or financial data, the ultimate responsibility lies with the company that has collected that data, whether they are in the US or the UK. Although local laws apply, there are now stringent data protection laws on the books in both countries. I will, however, applaud both the UK, France and the EU for their very stringent privacy laws! These are substantially better at protecting the consumer than the laws in the US, where data collected at POS and via online websites can be used for just about whatever the owner of the store or website wants to do with it. I applaud both your government and British Airways for resisting and, intimately, modifying the request by the US Department of Homeland Security when they demanded passenger data for flights originating outside the US.

[IMail Forum] 7.13 to 2006.2 - API
We've been on 7.13 for obviously a long time. I'm looking at upgrading to 2006.2 or Smartermail. Smartermail's drawback is the lack of ODBC support for domains. Howerver, using web services they have a great API to add/delete/modify domains/users/etc. I did some research on Ipswitch's site and it still looks like Imail is using some command line utilities to do basic mgmt. Does anyone know if they have enhanced the ability to interact with the system programmatically? -- Best regards, David mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/

RE: [IMail Forum] 2006.2 installation questions
I had a similar problem with another piece of software that doesn't like dual processors. Here is what I do. Log into the server as a console user (remote desktop doesn't allow this so use VNC or similar). If the service or process runs under the LocalSystem account you will need to run taskmanager with the appropriate permissions, logging in as administrator isn't good enough. You need to run the Task Manager from an privilege-elevated console. Type the following (with adjusted time) to Start | Run: at 10:53 /interactive cmd.exe When the command prompt appears type Type 'taskmgr' in this console to start the Task Manager. Right click on the process name, select 'Set Affinity', then clear the one of the CPU checkboxs and click OK. Unfortunately, this has to be repeated on each the service or process re-starts. You could also use Process Explorer http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/ProcessExplorer.mspx Or you can modify the binary to run in single process mode using the IMAGECFG tool (you'll have to Google this as I've no experience of it) All the best, David Waller WiSS Limited.

Make certain each of the DNBS blacklists you have configured are working and responsive. Rest assured that mxGuard will only do as many tests as are requird to test for spam. In other words, if the first test results in a high enough score, it will not run the 2nd, 3rd, etc... Efficient by design.

Maybe it sounds a bit like Voodoo, but the disks have less to do with this settings. can you add another disk and put the Imail queues only on that disk? or create a dedicated partition only for the Imail queues.

[IMail Forum] Router Help
I know this is off subject, so if someone can point me in the right direction, and or reply privately if they can help. I have a 5 year old Cisco 1700 Router with CSU/DSU card for my T1 that feeds my Imail machine. About 2 months ago, it started flaking out every 2 to 3 weeks. A simple power on/off would have it resync with the T1. Wasn't sure if it was the T1 so when it went down today, I had Sprint check, and they could get to the loopback on the circuit, which seems to pinpoint that it is the router. However, we don't have a second one to put in line ... So ... if anyone is familiar with service on these things, please contact me ... If I need to buy a new router/CSU combination, does any one make one that has a web type interface. I have found the Cisco VERY difficult to manage with my limited knowledge. Just blocking another port has become a major hassle ... Does anyone make a router/ CSU combination that has more of a GUI interface for configuration? If you sell / service these, please contact me so I can call you and discuss options. Thank you.

Thanks Grant. The 2 million is total inbound only, including spam.

RE: [IMail Forum] Migrate from SmarterMail to Imail
Not as far as I'm aware. SmarterMail stores user information in XML files and so it's technically feasible to extract this information and run it against an 'add user' script in Imail. This would create accounts but not move across IMAP mail or POP3 mail boxes. You could use something like POPWeasel to move copy mail in POP3 but whether this handle IMAP I don't know for sure.
