Hi Pete,

Our oldest production servers still have 1.1 - 1.4 GHz P3's in them. 
However, for mail our oldest are quad core 3Ghz Xeons.

Subject: [sniffer] What is your oldest production CPU?

Hello Sniffer Folks,

We would like to know what your oldest production CPU is.

When building new binaries of SNF or it's utilities we would like to
select the newest CPU we can without leaving anybody behind.

We're also evaluating whether we should split binaries into a
compatible version base on Intel i686 (or equivalent AMD), and a
current version based on Intel Core2 (or equivalent AMD).

Please respond here.

Thanks for your time!!

[sniffer] Re: IP Change on rulebase delivery system

2013-05-23 Thread Greg Coffey
I've been blocking subnets to the mail server manually for the past 10 days or 
so.  Scan the logs and look at common IP sources for spam.  PITA but I've got 
it under control.  One of the earlier schemes I noticed was from .pw and .in 
top level domains.  What I'm seeing now are messages coming from assorted 
domains but from a common subnet and hosting company - some US based.  I've had 
mail queued up for 20-30 mins before delivery before adding some firewall 
rules.  My mail server is an i5 running Windows Server.

Looks like I have this issue again (pegging 4 core cpu) and resetting the
process doesn't make a difference.  Not sure what is causing it but it does
slow down spam detection to 40-50 seconds for many emails.  Any ideas what
I can look at or do to resolve this?

 In that case, it is likely that RAM fragmentation was involved. Dropping

We had a hacker send bogus requests for login name, password and birth date to 
all our mail customers on one domain.  6 gave it up and made my life fun 
babysitting the mail server for the last week.  Makes ya wonder how many give 
up credit card and bank info?  The message did appear very legitimate, much 
better than average grammar, spelling and syntax.  We never ask anyone for 
their BD but they probably forget that.  One impacted customer wanted me to put 
back their original pw back in.  Boss can't learn a new one!  Sheesh..

I looked at the effectiveness of this test and I like what I'm seeing.
The volume isn't high, but it is making a difference in the edge cases
that are close to my hold weight.

In particular, I'm finding that it is triggering on pump and dump DKIM
spam from fresh netblocks that would otherwise leak into my mailboxes.
Some of those also trigger SNIFFERSCAM.

On first look it is simply another way to use an obfuscated image to

CAPTCHA software to create this obfuscated image is an interesting
choice -- it means people making good OCR resistant CAPTCHA generators
are now unintentionally helping the blackhats defeat OCR based spam

[sniffer] Imail Upgrade

2007-11-03 Thread Greg
I'm running an older ver of Imail (8.05) and considering an 
upgrade.  Is there much of a difference.  The only issue I'm 
currently having is there is an exploit that some yahoo is crashing 
the server a couple times a month.  Imail won't patch it so I either 
have to upgrade or move to another platform.  I know this isn't 
Sniffer related but looking for some advice from someone running Imail.  Thanks

One little thing you can do if it's not done already is to set up
proper SPF records for your domains. That will at least help others
skip the malware using your addresses more easily.

  Which tests can I do to understand the problem ?
 
 It turns out that those files have always been there - but most of
 them (not the SRV) went away very quickly.
 
 Most likely during your transition your SNF workspace got clogged with
 a lot of these and that is causing some problems.
 
 First thing to do is to shut down SMTP  SNF (your persistent
 instance) and clear out all of those job files. Each file represents a
 sing scan job - the extension represents the status. With everything
 shut down there should be none of these files so it's safe to delete
 them.
 
 Once that is done you can start things up again and everything should
 work normally.
 
 If not then the normal testing procedures should help you discover the
 problem quickly.
 
 Hope this helps,

You definitely want to be running in persistent mode.

I automated that whole process a while back after upgrading to 
Win2003.  It deletes the .tmp  .gse files a couple times per 
day.  It flushes out the spool and spam folder for anything older 
than 5 days.  In the good ol' days,  I used to manually do all that 
at least once a day.  The old 2000 install had some corrupt files and 
I couldn't automate anything, yuck!

- What makes you suspect DSNBL?
- Have you seen an increase in the overall number of messages going through?
- Are you using the sniffer persistant instance?

- Check to see that the imail\spool\mx-pid folder isn't filling up. I'm
running IMail 7.06/mxGuard/Message Sniffer and at times when I've had
problems the solution has been to empty that mx-pid folder.

[sniffer] Re: DNSBL

2007-02-28 Thread greg

C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c c:\imail\isplcln -n 5 -l 10

Above is the command I use in scheduled tasks.  Make sure you have 
ispcln.exe on your system.  I can't remember whether it came with 
Imail or I had to download it somewhere.  You only need to be 
concerned about the last few characters starting with the -n --  the 
number following specifies the # of days old spool files which will 
be deleted.  -l # specifies the number of days of logs that will be 
kept.  Older than 10 days on my system get deleted.  Usage of either 
is optional.  There might be other options under the command too, I 
can't recall.


Here is the scheduled task for purging the spam folder after 5 days:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c C:\IMail\immsgexp.exe -tc:\imail -d5 -mspam.mbx

Use -mFolderName - you can purge out of any folder using this command

Here's the syntax for deleting the .gse files:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c del c:\imail\spool\*.gse




  I'm still on Win2k. I've been able to automate emptying the mx-pid folder
periodically, downloading sniffer updates, and uploading/dating sniffer
logs nightly. I could also automate dumping the .tmp and .gse files
periodically(may give that shot), not sure how I could do the clean out
files after 5 days thing though. I'm assuming you're talking about the
scattered extra .smd files.

What particular group, if any, are you seeing them in? The  
experimental-abstract (61) category is my main fp problem lately.


Curious,
Greg

If you are going to add that filter to your system, my advice is to  
give it a very low weight. Others said it worked great for them, but  
I was seeing a very high percentage of false positives with it.


I'm currently testing a modification of the filter to see if this new  
version works better for me.

Re: [sniffer] FireDaemon

Yes I paid for it and I do have a license. 
The reason for using FireDaemon is that we already had it on the server another 
processes.

  The newest version is not a free version. Older 
  versions gave you one service for free. The new one does not. Got a 
  license?

Subject: [sniffer] FireDaemon

Can anybody help me with a problem getting the 
persistent mode to work with FireDaemon. I loaded the latest version, 
1.7. I believe I have everything setup correctly, the right .exe name, 
authenicationxx and persistent in parameters. It starts to fire up, 
then stops. Any hints?

Pete:

Yes it works from the command line with no problem.  Do I need to stop the
SMTP and declude config file before starting this as a service?

 Did SNF generate a log file?

 Were there any errors or warnings in the log file?

 If you execute the same command from the command line does it work?

 --- These are just basic things. I'm not very familiar with FireDaemon
 but it still pays to start with the basics ;-)

 You may also consider temporarily turning on the debug menu in the SNF
 .cfg file. If SNF is starting at all that may tell you why it stops.
 If you are not getting a log file from SNF (any log files) then
 chances are it has been called incorrectly so your command line
 settings are incorrect. That is, in general, SNF will almost always
 produce a log file - even if there are errors. If not then SNF
 probably did not run, or it rejected it's command line and exited
 right away.

 hope this helps,
