RE: [Declude.Virus] Manifest
I was just thinking along the same lines and have given instructions to my tech to produce stats for each local address to send to them when this is all over.

Re: [Declude.Virus] Manifest
However, these notifications became a significant impact during the recent outbreak and now, I'm wondering about the possibility of incorporating a daily manifest, as an option. Do you think that a manifest option is a possibility for the future? That's an interesting idea, that would be very nice for accounts that get a lot of viruses (and in times like this, with Sobig.F). I'm not sure if this is something we will get to do, but it is something we have in the works for Declude JunkMail, so it might be easy to add to Declude Virus at the same time. -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers.

[Declude.Virus] Manifest
Hi Scott, I like the idea of an e-mail notification when a dangerous attachment is quarantined and when a virus is killed. They remind the customers of the services we are providing them. However, these notifications became a significant impact during the recent outbreak and now, I'm wondering about the possibility of incorporating a daily manifest, as an option. Do you think that a manifest option is a possibility for the future? Thanks, Don Brown - Dallas, Texas USA Internet Concepts, Inc.

The header shows 168.200.2.27 sent it to me, but guava.uch.edu (which is their SMTP machine MX) got it from 168.200.32.18 about 11 seconds earlier (if their clocks are accurate). 168.200.32.18 is in their block too, so I'm assuming that is the machine that originate the message. If 168.200.2.27 is their inbound SMTP server, wouldn't you just see that as the only IP number, and not the second IP number?

Now I feel like a real idiot ... I wish the LAN administrator would have just told me that and it all would have made more sense. Or it is easier just to keep out of everyone's else's problem. I been hit for 3 days now by a DSL circuit with the Sobig virus. I sent off email to the BellSouth Abuse department, don't ever expect to see an answer. I would block the IP, but it keeps jumping to a new one every 6 hours or so. I assume this is BellSouth way of reassigning ip's so DSL circuits don't get static numbers for free.

RE: [Declude.Virus] No wonder viruses spread
But since the subject that you are receiving is "undeliverable : RE: Details" isn't that his server is just returning the message Unless the virus has more subjects then the list of subjects that I am aware of. Comparing it to the headers generated by the copies of Sobig.F we've looked at, it appears that it was indeed a bounce message. However, the fact remains that there was a virus in the bounce message, so they were spreading the virus. Fortunately, IMail won't do this. If an E-mail is sent to an address that doesn't exist, IMail will reject the E-mail. It would then be up to the remote mailserver to generate the bounce message. -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers.

RE: [Declude.Virus] No wonder viruses spread
Um - I'm not sure, but I think he may be right. The declude virus catch looks like a bounce from his server, not sent through his server. As you said the e-mail address is forged - so if an infected computer has a user from your domain and a bad address from his, once his server can't deliver the mail to the bad address it returns the e-mail to the postmaster at what the server assumes is the domain from the forged address. I guess it is returning the whole message, virus included and then Declude it catching it and notifying you. I hope my server isn't doing that, bouncing infected messages from bad or expired address. If it is, is there a way to shut down? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Dodell Sent: Saturday, August 23, 2003 6:01 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Declude.Virus] No wonder viruses spread Here is a snipet of some on going email I'm having with a LAN administrator at a university hospital.

My best guess is that Sobig may be on your pc, and you have a contact somewhere to someone at uch that is no longer here or valid. Not too uncommon for we changed our domain last year. Furthermore, our e-mail system doesn't allow .pif or .scr attachments and will strip them if attempted whether infected or not.
