RE: [Declude.JunkMail] SURBL filter script

2004-04-15 Thread Roger Eriksson
The SURBL rbldns zone file is updated every five minutes or so, but
the difference between these updates is small. I think that a filter
update once or twice a day is enough.
/Roger


  The command script that downloads the SURBL rbldns zone file,
 converts it to a body filter, and updates the existing filter
 file is available for download at
 http://www.botany.gu.se/download/decludescript/SURBL_filter.zi
 p. I have included a short readme file and added comments to
 the script.
Wow! Great script.
Downloaded, unpacked, set the script location, works fine!
Any suggestions on how often we should update the file? Hourly, daily, ...

Thank you
Markus

[Declude.JunkMail] JUNKMAIL Filter enhancements - using them less

2004-04-15 Thread Scott Fisher
I am working on reducing the amount of occasions that I need to call the BODY and 
ANYWHERE filters to help cut down on my server CPU spikes.

I'd like to see these enhancements:

1.  SKIPIFWEIGHTLESSTHAN for the filters. If the weights in the Body filter aren't 
going to make any difference in the final weight, why should I run it. I have to think 
this one is a bit of code similar to the SKIPIFWEIGHT.

2.  Actual weights for the SKIPIFWEIGHT. I need to have my SKIPIFWEIGHT set to 7 
points higher than my actual hold weight to accommodate the possibly negative scores 
for the IPNOTINMX and the NOLEGITCONTENT tests. If these tests were already calculated 
into the weight at the time of the SKIPIFWEIGHT is examined, I would be running the 
filter tests less. Does HIDETESTS play into this?

It is for user SMTP authentication.  To bypass relay settings and show
you're really a user of the server when sending an email (so you can relay
while off the local network) - since you're an authenticated user, you can
choose to whitelist any emails from that particular session.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] JUNKMAIL Filter enhancements - using them less

2004-04-15 Thread Matt
Scott,

It would be even better if the skip weights were listed in the 
Global.cfg instead of the individual filter files, that way they 
wouldn't even need to be opened.  This could be done with the addition 
of two columns to the definitions of all of the custom filters and 
external tests.

Regarding the calculation of weights with those negative weight tests, I 
asked about this a few months ago after a similar discussion and Scott 
indicated that this wasn't happening.  Honestly, I can't really tell you 
if it is or isn't still happening on my box, though maybe only a small 
percentage of spam would get the credit and as a result end up in my 
hold file instead of landing in my drop range.

Matt

Unfortunately, this would be difficult to implement.  The reason for this 
is that Declude JunkMail keeps track of whether a test has failed or 
not.  It starts off with no tests failing, then if a test runs, Declude 
JunkMail records that it has failed the test.  So when it comes time to 
calculate the total weight for SKIPIFWEIGHT, Declude JunkMail would end up 
reducing the total weight of the E-mail for any tests that have not yet run 
that have a negative weight and that the E-mail would have failed.  This 
ended up causing some problems when it was originally calculated that way.

Title: Message



Definitely fake, 
Sharyn.

0) Like you said, 
it had at least one typo. And would they tell you what "segment" they've 
put you in? And to an email address they've never been 
given?

1)The link 
goes throughanother provider with a 6 month old domain name,through 
a Group Telecom connection in Canada. ATT certainly has their own 
bandwidth, and if they wanted the feedback survey to be done by a 3rd party, 
they would clearly state so.

2) Have you ever 
seen the legal disclaimer at the bottom of a real message from ATT? 
It's half as long as any email they send out, and those emails are full of happy 
pictures.

3) Check the 
URL. They have no reason to escape the characters in the URL, and it's 
full of tracking information that looks like classic ROKSO spamgang 
technique. The same info is in the links at the bottom of the 
message.

4) The weird 
thing is that the ATT logo comes from the website of an advertising 
agency... that seems really unlikely, unless it was the ad agency itself that 
sent it (but you didn't include the header of the email).

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] tricks for dealing with null senders?

2004-04-15 Thread Royce Burnett
Hi Dave, 
thanks for the response.

I'm not sure of the mechanics of rejection, all I did to stop this for now
was to check the reject null senders box in smtp security. Please
understand that I'm just a guy who got stuck with this job, and 90% of the
conversation in this list is over my head :D

Originally this iwebmsg power consumption was happening by means of null
senders sending messages to imailsrv which was generating tons of illegal
list commands in the log, I got around this by renaming imailsrv.exe to
something else which got the log files down to 4 or 5 mbs a day instead of
70 or 80. We don't have any need for the imailsrv function, so I thought
what the heck... This lasted for a few weeks, but now it's happening again,
although not to the same extent. I was previously getting somewhere around
170,000 of these a day. I'm seeing that a few of them are now starting to
send to listserv.

The log files are now at around 7 or 8 mbs, I'm getting about 2000 of these
null senders a day now, which really shouldn't bother. I do have a number
of tmp files in the spool directory which I wasn't getting before I renamed
the imailsrv.exe, strangely these tmp files don't look as though they are
related to any attempt to send a message to imailsrv. Weird.
Another thing that is goofy is that I have a couple of users whose
attachments seem to stay in the spool directory for ever and ever, is that
normal for a user that pretty much exclusively uses the web mail function?
spool directory size is usually about 60 or 70 mbs, with about 100 or 150
files in it. I usually keep about a months worth of logs in the spool.

any suggestions? i'm waiting to get a bunch of postmaster messages from
rfc-ignorant while i have things set this way.

cheers
Royce

Hi Royce-

How are you rejecting the messages? Do you use a nobody alias with an
autoresponse, or do you just let Imail return the standard error message?
Any idea how many you're getting?

It seems odd that this would effect iwebmsg.  Look for another problem
somewhere. How many files do you have in your spool directory?

to

 I've had to turn off accepting null senders just to grab my breath. Whats

Definitely fake, 
Sharyn.

0) Like you said, 
it had at least one typo. And would they tell you what "segment" they've 
put you in? And to an email address they've never been 
given?

1)The link 
goes throughanother provider with a 6 month old domain name,through 
a Group Telecom connection in Canada. ATT certainly has their own 
bandwidth, and if they wanted the feedback survey to be done by a 3rd party, 
they would clearly state so.

2) Have you ever 
seen the legal disclaimer at the bottom of a real message from ATT? 
It's half as long as any email they send out, and those emails are full of happy 
pictures.

3) Check the 
URL. They have no reason to escape the characters in the URL, and it's 
full of tracking information that looks like classic ROKSO spamgang 
technique. The same info is in the links at the bottom of the 
message.

4) The weird 
thing is that the ATT logo comes from the website of an advertising 
agency... that seems really unlikely, unless it was the ad agency itself that 
sent it (but you didn't include the header of the email).

[Declude.JunkMail] Mailbox-Spam

2004-04-15 Thread Kami Razvan



Hi;

We are sending all 
emails that fail a certain weight to the spam mailbox of the 
user.

The problem we are 
seeing is when users use aliases and not real UserID's.

WEIGHT20mMAILBOX spam

this sends the 
email to a User:First.Last@Domain.comwith Alias: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

 that user is 
not defined. IMail does not know that the user name is an alias therefore 
it can't create a mailbox. We are seeing mailbox not found 
errors.

Any ideas as to 
how we can fix this?

Kami

sure I get this right (would like to add this as well even though the

In the global.cfg file I would enter the following entry:

And then in the $default$.junkmail file, I would enter the following
entry:

IPTEST  ROUTETO [EMAIL PROTECTED]   (or whatever I want)

This appear as being correct, right?

Here is the situation.

The mailbox action:

sends the spam to:

Naturally [EMAIL PROTECTED] does not exist.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] exists.

So spam is bouncing and mailbox is not created.

It sounds like the debug mode will be needed here.  To use the debug mode, 
you can change the LOGLEVEL LOW line in \IMail\Declude\global.cfg to

[Declude.JunkMail] a SURBL snapshot observation

2004-04-15 Thread Colbeck, Andrew
For what it's worth, over the last 2 days, my SURBL success has been 20%
that of the text filter I use to block recent spam we've noticed (which
contains spamvertised domains).  

And there has been little overlap between my local test and SURBL.  Which
simply shows that my spam is different from your spam, and his spam, and her
spam.

Also, SURBL has a much higher hit rate if I take into account the number of
lines in each file, i.e. my local filter is more effective, but contains
lots of lines that are not effective, so SURBL is also more CPU-friendly.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] tricks for dealing with null senders?

2004-04-15 Thread Dave Doherty
Hi Royce-

Sounds like you've got a few things going on there. Understand, I'm on
version 8.05 now, so your mileage may vary. I'll try to keep it the basics.

First off, it sounds to me like you have too much stuff in your spool
directory.

I suggest that you zip your older log files and move them out of the spool
directory.

You should be able to delete all spool files older than one or two days if
you use normal SMTP retry settings like ten attempts half an hour apart.

How large are the attachment files? They may be stuck in the queue because
they were never delivered. That can happen if they are large, particularly
larger than 2MB.

If you have no lists, you should not have an imailsrv alias. Delete that if
it's present.

Delete the nobody alias if it's present. That will let Imail reject
misaddressed messages before it processes them. This is way more efficient,
and it should cut down on your processor and disk activity quite a lot.

Maybe others here have more / better suggestions.

 Hi Dave,
 thanks for the response.

 I'm not sure of the mechanics of rejection, all I did to stop this for now
 was to check the reject null senders box in smtp security. Please
 understand that I'm just a guy who got stuck with this job, and 90% of the
 conversation in this list is over my head :D

 Originally this iwebmsg power consumption was happening by means of null
 senders sending messages to imailsrv which was generating tons of illegal
 list commands in the log, I got around this by renaming imailsrv.exe to
 something else which got the log files down to 4 or 5 mbs a day instead of
 70 or 80. We don't have any need for the imailsrv function, so I thought
 what the heck... This lasted for a few weeks, but now it's happening
again,
 although not to the same extent. I was previously getting somewhere around
 170,000 of these a day. I'm seeing that a few of them are now starting to
 send to listserv.

 The log files are now at around 7 or 8 mbs, I'm getting about 2000 of
these
 null senders a day now, which really shouldn't bother. I do have a number
 of tmp files in the spool directory which I wasn't getting before I
renamed
 the imailsrv.exe, strangely these tmp files don't look as though they are
 related to any attempt to send a message to imailsrv. Weird.
 Another thing that is goofy is that I have a couple of users whose
 attachments seem to stay in the spool directory for ever and ever, is that
 normal for a user that pretty much exclusively uses the web mail function?
 spool directory size is usually about 60 or 70 mbs, with about 100 or 150
 files in it. I usually keep about a months worth of logs in the spool.

 any suggestions? i'm waiting to get a bunch of postmaster messages from
 rfc-ignorant while i have things set this way.

 cheers
 Royce

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Multiple Actions for failed tests

2004-04-15 Thread Scott Fisher
From: Declude JunkMail Install/Manual

Multiple actions per test
Declude JunkMail does not support multiple actions per test. When it was designed, it 
was assumed that people would only want to use one of the two actions that other 
anti-spam products use: WARN or BOUNCE. 
However, since Declude JunkMail allows so many different actions to be taken on 
E-mail, a number of people have requested the ability to use multiple actions per 
test. Although Declude JunkMail does not support this, there is a way to accomplish 
the same end result. You just need to define two copies of the same test, each with a 
different name. 

For example, if you wanted to have the SPAMCOP test use both the WARN and SUBJECT 
actions, you would change add a new test SPAMCOP2. The \IMail\Declude\global.cfg 
defines the SPAMCOP test as:

SPAMCOP ip4r bl.spamcop.net 127.0.0.2 7 0

You would add another entry that is identical except with a different name, so you 
would now have:

SPAMCOP ip4r bl.spamcop.net 127.0.0.2 7 0
SPAMCOP2 ip4r bl.spamcop.net 127.0.0.2 0 0

Then, in your $default$.JunkMail file, you could have:

SPAMCOP SUBJECT Spam:
SPAMCOP2 WARN

Now, both actions will be used. There are some combinations of actions that will not 
work together (such as DELETE and HOLD, which logically can't both be used), but most 
will. Also, if you use the weighting system, you should set the weights of the second 
test to 0, so that you do not end up with double the weight.

Hi, Scott,
Is the existence of an A record or MX record the only thing that the
helovalid test type checks for?

I, perhaps wrongly, assumed that it checked the format of the HELO string
looking for a Fully-Qualified Domain Name.  For example, OEMCOMPUTER would
fail the test because it didn't have a TLD.  But perhaps all along the test
has just been looking for the existence of an MX or A record and if it
doesn't find it then it tests fails.  If an MX or A record does exist are
there any other things the helovalid test type looks for?

Correct -- because those are the only two correct ways to do it.  It 
*should* have an A record; if not, though, most people consider an MX 
record to be acceptable.

It means that it failed those tests.

It's better for E-mails to pass those tests (so that they do not appear in

There's a checkbox under the properties of the SMTP service, something about
disabling the AUTH function.  This was on 7.x I am pretty sure, probably
supported for quite some time.

The introduction into declude I believe has been much more recent.

 It is for user SMTP authentication.  To bypass relay settings and show 
 you're really a user of the server when sending an email (so you can 
 relay while off the local network) - since you're an authenticated 
 user, you can choose to whitelist any emails from that particular session.

 Hello,
   I'm also updating my Global.CFG file and noticed something new.
 What is WHITELIST AUTH?  I checked the online manual, but there's 
 nothing listed for it.  There's an entry for WHITELIST HABEAS, but not
AUTH.
   Thanks..

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] why does this fail the spam domains test?

2004-04-15 Thread R. Scott Perry

Can anyone explain why this message would fail the spamdomains test?

Here is the spamdomains entry:

@juno.com.untd.com
The key here is the reverse DNS entry -- do you have the full headers for 
the E-mail?  Although the IMail log file shows the IP address, it is 
possible that Declude JunkMail may have used a different IP, which would be 
reflected in the headers.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Updating Global.CFG

2004-04-15 Thread Dan Horne
IIRC, this Declude option is only valid for IMail 8 and up.  In version 8,
Ipswitch started putting an entry into the Q*.SMD indicating whether or not
the sender had AUTH'ed.  Declude was programmed to recognize that entry and
Whitelist users that had AUTH'ed if the WHITELIST AUTH directive is used.

For Imail versions prior to IMail 8 there is no entry in the Q*.SMD, and so
the directive will have no effect.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] why does this fail the spam domains test?

2004-04-15 Thread Dave Doherty
Scott-

I think that I may misunderstand SPAMDOMAINS.

From the manual:

This test will catch E-mail that is not coming from a mailserver that it
should be coming from. This test will only work if you set up a file listing
domains that you wish to be included in this test. Specifically, it will
check the return address of the E-mail, and then check to see if the reverse
DNS entry of the IP that the E-mail was sent from contains the domain name.
If not, the E-mail fails the test. For example, if hotmail.com is listed
in the \IMail\Declude\spamdomains.txt file, then an E-mail coming from
law2.hotmail.com would not fail the test, but an E-mail from
mail.example.ru would fail the test.

Taking the lead from that description, my SPAMDOMAINS file consists of a
simple list of domains, one to a line, like this:

ebay.com
aol.com

Yet every example I have seen on this subject the past few days shows two
domains per line like this:

@juno.com.untd.com

How is this supposed to work?

 Is the existence of an A record or MX record the only thing that the
 helovalid test type checks for?
 
 Correct -- because those are the only two correct ways to do it.  It
 *should* have an A record; if not, though, most people consider an MX
 record to be acceptable.
 
 I, perhaps wrongly, assumed that it checked the format of the HELO
string
 looking for a Fully-Qualified Domain Name.  For example,
OEMCOMPUTER
 would
 fail the test because it didn't have a TLD.  But perhaps all along
the
 test
 has just been looking for the existence of an MX or A record and if
it
 doesn't find it then it tests fails.  If an MX or A record does exist
are
 there any other things the helovalid test type looks for?
 
 It just looks for the MX/A records.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Updated SURBL filter script

2004-04-15 Thread Matt
Roger,

Thanks for the fine work.  I finally got around to setting this up after 
figuring out that it wasn't thousands of URL's long and my server seems 
to be handling it well enough for now.

I have two suggestions for the script.

1) Add a MAXWEIGHT variable.  If you score each line at say 4 points and 
set the MAXWEIGHT to 4, then the filter will stop processing on the 
first hit and save resources.  I tried playing around with this to get 
it to work, but I'm totally clueless when it comes to batch file 
programming and I think I was hitting some sort of a reserved word.

2) Add the ability to remove listings contained in a text file (an 
exclude list).  From looking over the current list of domains, there are 
the following:
   - norton.com
   - webhosting.yahoo.com

These were probably in spam, but they are not unique to spam.  I also 
found an entry for pe.kg in the list which doesn't resolve and seems 
like it was probably from a parsing error.  A list of top sites from a 
page linked to from the project's site shows that yahoo.com is one of 
the most frequently spamvertised domains, though this is clearly not 
listed in this file due to an exception on their end.

This type of test is definitely very vulnerable to pollution and it 
would be great to have a way to detect such problems and add them to a 
list for exclusion.

Long-term this is best suited for a DNS lookup due to various 
limitations of doing a contains filter, but for now, it seems to be 
working very well at adding points to things that are coming in below my 
drop weight, in fact it might very well be tagging the majority of what 
is scoring in my Hold level and pushing it over the top.

Hi,

The SURBL filter script has been updated and should now run under both 
Windows NT 4 and Windows 2000. The updated script can be downloaded at 
http://www.botany.gu.se/download/decludescript/SURBL_filter.zip.

Those of you that downloaded the previous version and use it on 
Windows 2000 don't need to update.

/Roger
