Are you refering to a port like 587. SmarterMail does support it in its
current vesion.


What smartermail does not support is is authentication with declude.
Supposedly version 3 of smartermail will support authentication.

Kevin,

Yes, I was referring to port 587.  I think you and I are saying the same
thing but I'll try to clarify for everyone reading this topic.

Smartermail does not support port 587 as a submission-only port as defined
by the RFCs.  

Smartermail supports defining a secondary SMTP port.  You could configure
smartermail to accept smtp connections on both port 25 and port 587.
Unfortunately, that doesn't solve anything because we need port 587 to be a
submission-only port and to require SMTP AUTH.  The latter is the only means
we would have to keep spammers from bypassing your front-end spam filtering
gateway server.  If they find that smartermail accepts smtp connections for
delivery on port 587 and that it doesn't require any kind of authorization
they will just dump their spam there and bypass the gateway server
altogether.

Smartertools has said they will consider changing it for version 3 but they
say that about everything and they also have no plans in the near future to
release version 3.  They are working on their stats software at the moment.

I personally have concluded that the only really practical way to spam
filter is with a spam filtering gateway up front in order to off-load as
much work as possible from the mail server.

I'm searching for solutions.  I've been using ASSP which runs as proxy but
we're getting a lot of false positives with it.

Declude Pro is too expensive even with the smartertools $100 discount we
receive.

Sandy,

That seems to work however I'm getting the size limit exceeded message even
though I have the sizelimit -1 line in the slapd.conf. There are
approximately 4000 addresses in the domain I'm working with now.

Just so you are aware, I have 4 imail mailservers. Two are mx gateways, two
are hosting servers. The pull of information by ldap2aliases on mx1 from
hosting1 is working fine.

This current problem occurs when trying to use ldap2aliases on mx1 for
information on hosting2 (hosting2 is using port 1389). Just for kicks I
tried to use ldap2aliases on mx2 for information on hosting2 and I got the
same size error.

Any ideas?

Chuck,

Here some numbers from my side:

100k messages in the last 7 days
50.5% identified as legit, 49.5% as spam (viruses was filtered out before)

The best IP4R-based tests was
CBL (21%, 0.37%FP), SPAMCOP (21%, 0.47%FP) and XBL-DYNA (19%, 0.27%FP)
So they catch less then 50% of incoming spam without creating a 
significant

number of false positives.
FIVETEN-SRC was able to catch 24% of spam but has also had FP's on around 
6%

of all processed messages.

A text-filter combining the results of different IP4R-based tests has
reached a catch rate of 36%. I consider it the current maximum that can be
reached with IP4r-based tests by having a - let's say - moderate number of
false positives.

INV-URIBL instead can catch 37% of all messages as spam and I must say 
that
up to now I haven't had time to try improving the INV-URIBL configfile. 
(Any
suggestion is welcome!) It's also important that the number of FP's for 
this

test is near to zero.

SNIFFER was able to catch 47% of all spam messages but I must also say 
that

there was a significant number of false positives (5%). Most of them
generated by SNIFFER-GENERAL and SNIFFER-RICH.

SPAMCHK has had correct results on around 45% of all messages, but also 
had

around 7% of FP's

Other excelent tests was CMDSPACE (30%, 1%FP) and HELOISIP (13%, 0.17%FP)

Due to Decludes weighting system and the combination of all this tests I 
can
see between 10 and 20 spam messages each month in my inbox, by catching 
more

then 300 spams each day.

In the last several months we have seen large quantity of
spam coming from IP blocks that never seem to get listed on
any RBL.  Spamcop is about the only one that picks some of
them up and once in awhile spamhaus.  There was a block last
night that sent several hundred and sendbase.org showed they
had detected no email from that block.

The reason I bring this up is because when we first started
blocking spam I would say the blacklists would catch almost
90% so we relied heavily on the blacklist.  With the
blacklists not being as effective we need to rely on other
tests like sniffer but that misses alot also.

[Declude.JunkMail] Filter not triggering / CONTAINS issue

2005-07-27 Thread John Carter
Forum members:

I need to let you know I can not duplicate the so called CONTAINS problem
I ran into in earlier.  In other words the CONTAINS directive seems to be
working ok.  

David Barker requested I send sample emails, log entries, etc. for
evaluation. Not having any of the emails or Declude logs from May and the
fact the config files have been added to since then, I attempted to
replicate the situation with emails from outside my system and a new test
filter looking for embedded characters.  The test filter tagged each
incoming message.

Sorry if I caused undue concern. Regarding posting my comments yesterday, I
hate to sound defensive, but the last communication from Declude in June was
a we are still looking into it.  I had since gone to 2.0.6.16 and added
Sniffer and a couple filters some you have made available.  Basically I
assumed (1) the fix had gotten caught up in the changes and testing they
announced and (2) I had covered up my problem with these changes and that it
still existed.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] RBL's becoming worthless...

2005-07-27 Thread Scott Fisher

Darrell would be a better answerer of this question:

Speed is directly dependent on the number of URIs in the email.
The runtime for most of my messages is about 1 to 2 seconds.
It tends to run longer on some ham messages with lots of links.

The SKIPWEIGHT and MAXWEIGHT options can help cut down on the scanning. A 
lot of blatant spam for me gets bypassed by invuribl with the SKIPWEIGHT.
You can also cut out on processing with the senderipwhitelist file which 
will skip scanning from the IPs/CIDRs listed.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] RBL's becoming worthless...

2005-07-27 Thread Darrell \([EMAIL PROTECTED])
On my system I process about 120K messages a day.  The system is a dual xeon 
2.8ghz 1GB of ram.  The servers CPU usage throughout the day ranges from 30% 
- 70%.  Their are spikes at 100% but they are short lived and correlated to 
a rush of incoming mail.  The average scan time a message takes going 
through invURIBL on my system averages around 1 sec. 

I would agree that invURIBL uses a bit of CPU - a lot of it resides from 
having to decode the message from its format (base64, quoted printable, 
etc).  From my testing across various systems it can add about 10-15% extra 
CPU.  This will vary per system depending on hardware and existing load on 
your server. 

I make extensive use of SKIPWEIGHT, MAXWEIGHT, and the exception files and 
this pays off with lowering run time and CPU. 


Hope this helps.
Darrell

David,

Either configuration in your case should work. However from Scott's Perry
comments regarding the HOP and IPBYPASS.

Normally, you will leave the HOP setting at HOP 0, and use an IPBYPASS
line for each gateway or backup mail server.

Just thought I would mention it. As it was suggested to test HELO-DYNAMIC

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] RBL's becoming worthless...

2005-07-27 Thread Scott Fisher
I was just checking some of my results on the RBL's and the spammers are 
defintely getting smarter.


When I started using Declude in Feb 2004, Spamcop hit on 83% of all the spam 
messages.

For June 2005, Spamcop hit on 48% of all spam messages.

Fiveten Spam dropped from 62% to 41% in the same time frame.

Two (newer) RBL's that seem to work:

1. uceprotect is nice because of it's accuracy:
dnsbl-1.uceprotect.netlists single IP addresses.99.9% accurate here 32 
to 35% of the total spam tagged.
dnsbl-2.uceprotect.netlists /24 subnets 99.8% accurate here. 33 to 38% 
of the total spam tagged.


An IP address could be on both lists causing double-scoring. I use a filter 
to prevent that myself.


2. mxrate has a higher number of total hits, but woth less accuracy.
pub.mxrate.net98.9% accurate here.  59 to 62% of the total spam tagged.

3. If you are feeling advanced...
I've posted a program that take the ASSP Greylist and turns it into a ip4r 
DNS that you can test against. You'll need some DNS knowledge as you'll need 
to run this on your DNS Server.
Using this DNS, I find that ASSP score of .99 tagsabout 13% of the total 
spams at a 99.9% accuracy.
An ASSP score of .91 to .98 tags about 43% of the total spams at a 99.3% 
accuracy.

  Subject: Re: [Declude.JunkMail] 
  Whitelisting
  
  Richard,
  
  The problem here is, first of all, that Declude 
  does not look at the cc: or bcc: in the headers. It deals with recipients of 
  the email solely on the basis of what is in the message envelope (q*.smd 
  file), which is discarded by IMail after processing; all you eventually see is 
  the contents of the message itself (the d*.smd file).
  
  Whitelisting ensures that the email will pass all 
  tests. Under optimal circumstances, if an email source or destination is 
  whitelisted, all tests should be skipped. If there are two recipients and only 
  one were whitelisted, the headers of te email would have to indicate a 
  whitelisted weight of 0 for one recipient and the actual weight for the other 
  (non-whitelisted) recipient. That would necessitate two different sets of 
  headers, which would require two separate message files and therefore two 
  separate envelopes: If the non-whitelisted weight exceeded the HOLD threshold, 
  one copy of the email would be placed into the HOLD folder with the envelope 
  modified for that single recipient; the other would be whitelisted and the 
  held recipient would be deleted from that envelope. In other words, Declude 
  would have to generate multiple emails from a single email, which is not 
  practical. How would Declude assign a new queue number to the duplicate email? 
  If one recipient were whitelisted and the other had a weight of 5 (to be 
  delivered), there would be different sets of headers and therefore different 
  emails. They could not both have the same queue number because they could no 
  be placed into the spool at the same time (one would overwrite the 
  other).
  
  The email server generates a separate copy of the 
  email for each recipient after processing by Declude. However, there is no 
  practical way for Declude to create multiple emails from a single

Whitelisting

I just took out all the email addresses I had 
whitelisted in my Global file last week because I thought this would 
helpstop more spam getting thruand of course folks are now 
emailing me saying they are missing mail..newsletters and 
such...

My question is "Why is it not possible with 
Declude to whitelist an email address and it only applies to that email 
address and not any others that might be in CC or BCC"?

  Filter not triggering
  Kevin,Just a thought if you wanted to confirm this 
  as a bug, maybe try a filter for this same message, but match a full word 
  to see if it triggers. I did decode this segment and there is no 
  additional encoding or other tricks that would cause a filter to not 
  hit.IMO, knowing about bugs like this would be very helpful at 
  times, especially considering the time that it would take each one of us 
  that was affected by it to figure it out on our own. Maybe if 
  Declude doesn't want to post this information on their site, we could take 
  it upon ourselves to share such information with the list when it is 
  discovered. This is for the most part how the list used to function 
  in the old days, though most of us seemed to desire a page dedicated to 
  the topic regardless.MattKevin Bilbee

Richard,

Instead of whitelisting we use negative weight on DNS names.

So whitelisting the recipient is always a last resort?  Better to find out 
where they are not getting their mail and whitelist that or find out why they 
are not getting their expected mail..?

  Richard,

  The problem here is, first of all, that Declude does not look at the cc: or 
bcc: in the headers. It deals with recipients of the email solely on the basis 
of what is in the message envelope (q*.smd file), which is discarded by IMail 
after processing; all you eventually see is the contents of the message itself 
(the d*.smd file).

  Whitelisting ensures that the email will pass all tests. Under optimal 
circumstances, if an email source or destination is whitelisted, all tests 
should be skipped. If there are two recipients and only one were whitelisted, 
the headers of te email would have to indicate a whitelisted weight of 0 for 
one recipient and the actual weight for the other (non-whitelisted) recipient. 
That would necessitate two different sets of headers, which would require two 
separate message files and therefore two separate envelopes: If the 
non-whitelisted weight exceeded the HOLD threshold, one copy of the email would 
be placed into the HOLD folder with the envelope modified for that single 
recipient; the other would be whitelisted and the held recipient would be 
deleted from that envelope. In other words, Declude would have to generate 
multiple emails from a single email, which is not practical. How would Declude 
assign a new queue number to the duplicate email? If one recipient were 
whitelisted and the other had a weight of 5 (to be delivered), there would be 
different sets of headers and therefore different emails. They could not both 
have the same queue number because they could no be placed into the spool at 
the same time (one would overwrite the other).

  The email server generates a separate copy of the email for each recipient 
after processing by Declude. However, there is no practical way for Declude to 
create multiple emails from a single message.

Just a curiosity: I received an email from someone at Veritas, and the
subject line was:

Fw: [WARNING - POSSIBLY NOT VIRUS SCANNED]Re: VERITAS Support: Case ID



I'm assuming that this warning was added by their system?  Why would they do
that?  If they knew it wasn't scanned, why wouldn't they go ahead and scan
it?
