2003-12-23 Thread ehansen
Exch 5.5 sp4 In a scenario where a end users password has been compromised and is being used to drop spam crap on the internet mail service, what logging options can be used to identify the account that is authenticating? Also is there a way to tie a message id to a specific authenticated user?

Ouch However the time stamps should coincide yes? And if its one or a few users that have been compd the garbage is fairly regular intervals, I would think it would show up. What about this base64 thing? I cant seem to find this encoded base 64 auth string to plug into that website.

Yes, but for every single IP I block 10 more show up. It has more of a feel of a hole or a compd password especially when I come in AM and there are 24,000 ndr's in the que. Just to clarify are the logs you are talking about a few emails ago are in fact the logs from the imcdata/log folder yes?
