[Declude.JunkMail] Spoofed names

2008-04-03 Thread Jon Lucas
What is the best way to block spoofed names? We are getting a lot of spoofed emails in our IMail queue that just linger there like bipweks@domain name.com. I tried blacklisting the name, but it appears that Declude then filters out all domain name emails. I then went to the spam folder,

I found out that the problem in part is due to users using VPN, and the internal addresses are not whitelisted. In the Global.cfg file, can you whitelist a range of ipaddresses, such as 198.107.21.1 - 198.107.21.255? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL

You have to use CIDR range as the example you provided: WHITELIST IP 198.107.21.0/24 However remember that users who authenticate with the server are automatically whitelisted. David B -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jon

I added the VPN Server ipaddress as well as my current VPN Address to the global.cfg whitelist section, but it did not help the problem. Declude immediately grabs any message that I send except for a reply to someone else's email and dumps it into the spam folder. -Original Message-

Hi David... I applied the CIDR address range to the global.cfg WHITELIST, but emails sent via VPN are still getting filtered into the SPAM folder. I am still scratching my head on this one...so far nothing has affected this problem. Jon Lucas Poly-Cast, Inc. 503-648-5357 -Original

Set you LOGLEVEL to DEBUG in your global.cfg then track a message using the spool number and see if the whitelisting is taking place. Also does the header of the email show whitelisted? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jon Lucas Sent:

I found that if I whitelist each VPN user, then we can successfully send email via a VPN connection, so we at least have a viable fix for the problem. I believe that the key is that being authenticated on the VPN server does not necessarily mean that the user is authenticated on the mail

I totally agree with Dan’s email. Declude has been working great for us, so it’s money well spent. On the other hand, our IMail SA just expired, which cost us close to $1000 a year and a half ago, and I was never satisfied to the point where I could upgrade. So that amounted to worthless
