Re: [Declude.JunkMail] OT - Server Watching.

2006-01-23 Thread Matt




That's interesting.  It seems though that from a knowledgeable
administrator's point of view in a small business that this would be
very expensive and wouldn't net any real return.  Most small businesses
that I know with up to 100 seats are very tight with their IT spending
and go the route of outsourcing virtually all of their needs.  Things
are probably quite different in places like metro NYC, CA and WA as
well as your neck of the woods.

Although my own solution fits my needs, I did check out ipmonitor.com
and it looks like a real nice product if you want to plunk down $995. 
This puts them in the more expensive category, but it looks like it
does everything.  There's even a "NOC View"
(http://www.ipmonitor.com/network_monitoring/software/report.aspx).

MOM provides the basic "root cause analysis" that junior technologists
lack, e.g. so that MOM can tell the help desk that the webserver outage
is really a DNS problem.

OK it finally happened. I got another

How often is this happening?

 

Are you using Hijack?

 

Put both the Junkmail and Virus logs
into Debug until a couple of these occur, then extract from the log files ALL
lines pertaining to the files in question into one file in exact time sequence
along with the log lines from Imail SMTP.

IPMonitor is good.  And if anyone is tired of any IPSwitch products (such as
us) We've found this to be good and a good price.  We were using
IPSwitch "What's Up Gold" until IPSwitch started it's Imail pricing change.
We've switched from their FTP Client and Server, Server Monitoring and soon
we'll switch their Imail product.

We've used a lot of IPSwitch products in the past years.  And with
IPSwitch's stance on "things"; they are not in our line-up any more.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Filter Syntax

Is the filter file method any better than that found in the

In $default$.junkmail add "WHITELISTFILE

Then in the WHITELIST.TXT, put addresses, domains,

AW: [Declude.JunkMail] Spool Directory Backed Up

2006-01-23 Thread Guhl, Markus \(LDS\)



hi,
 
are those files backing up regular incomming mails or are 
they *.fwd and *.gse files?
 
what happens when you put a mail (d*.smd and q*.smd) into 
spool "by hand" (something like a false positiv)?
 
which version of imail do you use?
 
regards
m. guhl

Have you seen any of the files in the spool to see if 
there are real mails and not bouncing ones. Or perhaps to make sure your 
mailserver wasn't hikacked? Are those emails for or from your users? Make 
sure nobody is using your server to relay on and is sending large amounts of 
spam from there. That will explain why you have 37K messages in your

Have you checked declude logs to see if they offer 
valuable information to determine what is going on.
 
Do you run Imail or Smartermail?
I'm running IMail.  I

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] I seem to get alot of spam from the 'legit' lists.

2006-01-23 Thread Colbeck, Andrew
Nick, I think that if you left this mail in, your users won't complain
that it is spam.

I have much the same opinion of these lists that Matt has; more
explicitly, I have a counterweight (*not* a whitelist) that awards
negative points to their score.

I haven't seen spam from them yet, and all the mail that I do see is
user-requested, with little self-inflicted spam, by which I mean extra
advertising based mail that a user gets based on their agreement for the
first list.

I've noted that they tend to fall into the kind of RBL lists that have a
hair-trigger and that generate the most false positives, e.g. BLARS,
SORBS, PSBL, NOABUSE, NOPOSTMASTER and this is likely due to what Matt
describes: listbuilder sends mail on behalf of others, who may not have
the perfect double-opt-in requirements, or fail to adequately scrub
unsubscribers or fail to remove based on delivery failures and bounces.
