RE: Exchange 2003 RBL
-Original Message- From: ml.exchange [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [ ] While I would love to not have the spam traffic hit my network at all, the only effective way to do that is with the blacklists in blocking mode. That is absolutely not true. Utterly false. They are the state of the art of late-1990s spamblocking technology. Unfortunately, it's not the 90s any more. (I'm disagreeing with EdC here also, I just happened to pick your message to reply to) Doing that is just not acceptable in a business environment. That is absolutely 100% true. Utterly factual. :) On the other hand, my Exchange 2003 lab server that receives my personal mail has those RBLs turned on in full blocking mode. My main personal account was getting about 200+ spams a day and maybe 5-10 real mails before I turned on the RBL blocking in Exchange 2003, since then it has cut it to maybe 10 spams still making it to my box, and frankly if some real mail bounces, my friends and family know how to get me another way. That's nice, if friends and family were the only ones we had business relationships with. But not all of us are Amway reps or Mary Kay distributers. There are real antispam solutions extant, and they're far more accurate than DNSBLs alone. Although DNSBLs are a useful component of a real solution.

RE: Messagelabs. Postini, etc..
I dunno how much you're paying for MessageLabs' service, but it's pretty much a customized front end for the open-source SpamAssassin. The only benefit I can see over a stock Postfix/Sendmail gateway using Spamassassin, perhaps with MailScanner or amavisd or Anomy Sanitizer for some more advanced content routing, is that it gives more granular per-user settings. That's a lot of money on a bet that they can do better than 99.5% with 0 false positives than I do with a server I had laying around gathering dust, and routing sensitive information through a third party.

I use SpamAssassin, but I intend to just reject them out-of-hand during the SMTP conversation before it ever gets that far. This isn't the first time this has happened, it's just the worst. I'm now convinced these things are less than worthless, and I'm gonna 550 them at the gateway. http://www.exit0.us/index.php/VirusBounceRules -tom -Original Message- From: Durkee, Peter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Posted At: Wednesday, August 20, 2003 6:24 PM Posted To: MSExchange Mailing List Conversation: Antivirus notifications Subject: RE: Antivirus notifications I could not possibly agree more!

RE: Multiple domains.
Because you made a policy that actually applied to EVERY single recipient that told it to do that. Any new policy you make will be assigned a higher priority than your default policy, and will overwrite it for the recipients that the query that it's based upon (General screen, Modify, Find Now) applies to. Make one recipient policy. Add all the proper addresses. Apply it to nobody. And check (general modify find now) that it applies to nobody. -Original Message- From: Neil Doody [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Posted At: Tuesday, June 17, 2003 2:37 AM Posted To: MSExchange Mailing List Conversation: Multiple domains.

RE: Multiple domains.
The recipient policy doesn't have to apply to anybody (much less everybody) - they just need to BE there. Make a recipient policy that applies to nobody that has all those domains. Get rid of the connector. Problem solved. They'll bounce properly at that point. -Original Message- From: Neil Doody [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Posted At: Monday, June 16, 2003 5:11 AM Posted To: MSExchange Mailing List Conversation: Multiple domains. Subject: Multiple domains. Okay, weve got more than one local domain on the exchange server, only one domain is actually used for the servers, i.e. the active directory, the other domains are just legacy internet domains with the MX record set as our exchange server. To allow delivery of emails to people in the exchange organisation you can either use recipient policies with the desired domain, or alternatively add a new connector, add the address space and tick allow relaying to these domains. We have gone for the latter option as we do not want legacy email addresses created automatically within the domain, we only want people who we manually create email addresses to receive email from the legacy domain. However, the problem is we are now getting a large mail queue for the legacy domains as the server is attempting to relay the messages to the end user but the email address does not exist within our organisation. That is people are trying to send emails, i.e. spammers to email addresses that previously existed and the server is continually trying to relay that email back to itself and were getting all sorts of delay notifications etc. What I was wondering is how I can tell the server to realise that the email address doesn't exist and bounce it away ? Or perhaps im going about this whole thing the wrong way, maybe someone can enlighten me :) _ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchangetext_mode=lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: Shortcuts to Outlook objects
I agree with you, to an extent. However, I believe the accountability lapse in our profession is because of the paucity of meaningful credentials. An attorney has to pass the bar, and then (potentially) get board-certified in his or her specialty. Same with medical doctors. Same with psychologists. Aside from the CCIE program and very few others, the certification process in our industry is ludicrous and meaningless. As long as built a Quake server in my parents' garage is considered a credential, and as long as a paper MCSE or CNE are considered credentials, the problem will exist. The other problem that goes hand-in-hand with this is that hiring authorities for some reason believe that they can accurately judge an applicant's qualifications based upon buzzword bingo, meaningless certs papering the wall, and years of experience. Then they get some monkey that crammed for a week to get his MCSE, throws around a bunch of lingo that he read in a tech journal in the waiting room, and shared breathing space with a broken installation of $technology for x period of time. I don't believe accepting my Microsoft Bob coffee mug perverts my objectivity.

Going to a trade show and picking up a freebie is one thing. Accepting a title and accepting continued compensation is quite another. There is no relationship implied with the first, there is with the second. There are very specific things that denote a profession. One is having an independent governing body that defines and enforces the rules and ethics of the profession. The IT industry is a horrible failure in this regard. And, if you want to get specific, the only real professions that meet all of the definitions are military, medical, lawyers and to a lesser degree accounting and engineering. If you want to get technical, the military is the only profession that truly meets all of the requirements. In terms of their management of individuals in their profession, they are answerable to no one, have their own legal and ethical code of conduct and enforce those rules. This is why there is the justice system and the military's justice system. We work with lawyers all the time. We even host partner companies on our Exchange server for free. The lawyers that we work with FORCE us to bill them because they cannot ethically accept this service for free. It creates a conflict of interest for them. Our IT partners have no such ethical constraints. Go talk to lawyers, doctors and architects. Talk to them about their governing bodies, their ethics, etc. Talk to them about vendors in their industry. Getting things for free is viewed as bribery and a conflict of interest. Some of these industries are more lax than others. Look at the medical industry and how drug reps are viewed treated. Then compare that with IT's views on vendors. The difference is stark. In one, drug reps giving away free samples is seen as a huge problem, in IT it is not. _ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: E2K question
I think the point was filling up the drive. The idea behind circular logging is that your logs get recycled and shouldn't be growing to the point where they're filling up the drive, so they want you to eliminate that as an answer. -Original Message- From: John Q Jr. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Monday, October 14, 2002 04:27 PM Posted To: MSExchange Mailing List Conversation: E2K question Subject: Re: E2K question Because if you had circular logging enabaled it would prevent the purging of the logs. And more importantly there would only be one log. So it was misleading, and confusing. What I should have asked was, do you need to backup the entire Storage group to purge the logs? I know that there is only a transaction log per storage group, but I did not see any reference to any items describing when logs are purged or not.

I think it's A. Your Exchange 2000 Server has a single storage group containing three Mailbox Stores and a Public Folder Store. You perform nightly backups that alter between a normal backup of two of the Mailbox Stores on one night and a normal backup of the other Mailbox Store and Public Folder Store on the following night. You notice that transaction log files are not being purged, and that they are now consuming nearly all available disk space. What should be done? a. Disable circular logging. b. Install a new hard disk and move the transaction log files to the new disk. c. Perform nightly incremental backups of the entire Storage Group in addition to the current backups. d.

You know it's configurable, right? You know there's a q-article about that, right? URLScan is a great tool. It helps secure my web server. I don't use templates for squat, except as a starting point.

It helps secure your web server. If you use the Outlook Web Access template when installing URLSCAN you should be good to go, right? WRONG! URLSCAN wreaks havoc with OWA. First, remember that with OWA the SUBJECT line of a mail message is the FILE NAME. So if you are logged into OWA and want to read a message with subject: I want to hold your hand Your browser sends a URL like the following htps:/servername/username/inbox/i%20want%20to%20hold%your%20hand.eml URLSCAN examines that URL to make sure it isn't evil. Looks good so far. If the subject is: I want to hold your hand. The url would be htps:/servername/username/inbox/i%20want%20to%20hold%your%20hand..eml Since there are two dots (..) URLSCAN Rejects it. And if the subject is: I want to hold your hand foot The URL would be htps:/servername/username/inbox/i%20want%20to%20hold%your%20ha nd%20%26%20foot.eml Since there is an (or hex 26) URLSCAN Rejects it. Now how common is a period at the end of a subject in email? How common is the perfectly RFC822 legal in the subject of a message? There are truly good reasons to reject those chars/patterns as URL's, but they are allowed as file names. So do you a) lower the security of your webserver by disabling those features of URLSCAN? b) convince everyone to not end their subjects with a period or use the symbol? hm, what were the OWA guys thinking (or smoking?) when they set up the URL's to be based on subject lines???

Its a VMS system running PMDF and is run in a different department. We've been asked to look at alternative replacement systems. The system is processing about 40,000 inbound messages a day. I really like the Exchange IMC since it's menu driven and I have monitors in place that can page when something happens. Also it does some validation work, such as SMTP address already used and so forth. Couple of questions. 1) Is anyone else shoving 40,000+ inbound messages through an IMC? We would have a dedicated box for this function in the existing site and would only be used for inbound messages destined for @UC.EDU. It would also route messages to other e-mail systems such as our student POP/Unix based messaging system for those users whos alias points to an alternate system. 2) Is there some other 3rd party product that is user friendly (versus text updates) that might be a good replacement that anyone might want to recommend? 3) We could go with a Linux system with an SMTP mailer. We do have a administrator on staff here that runs the POP system and a Linux deployment was mention. I don't like the fact that its line based and additions are not immediate and require recompiling (maybe don't have that term right).

RE: Undeliverables
Smtp virtual server delivery messages copy of NDR to this mailbox: [whatever] If you want it more sophisticated than that, set up a freeware post office (mercury on win32, qmail, sendmail, whatever) and create a catchall on that box. On the same page of your smtp vs properties, choose forward all mail with unresolved recipients to this host: -Original Message- From: Andrea Coppini [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Friday, September 20, 2002 3:16 AM Posted To: MSExchange Mailing List Conversation: Undeliverables Subject: Undeliverables Hi, How do I configure a mailbox to be the 'postmaster' mailbox (ie. Any e-mail destined to one of the local domains where the user is not found is sent to mailbox A.) I found Q324021, but looks complex, prone to errors, and (I think) will need to be modified anytime we add/remove local domains from the exch. Server. Any ideas?
