Hi Colin, If the system is sending messages to itself and accepting them; than I would think that, either the joymail.com is listed in the servername of the config.xml or possibly the hostname of the computer has been compromised. You may want to check your computers hostname. Good Luck, Cliv

OK, that's something... any way we can just blackhole this guy completely? I sent a copy of my config.xml earlier today, email me off list if you missed it. As best as I can tell we have set up James to not allow this. Either (1) we are missing somehting in the config or (2) the server has been ro

As per request, here is the full header track of one such suspect message. Replace "foo-bar" with our domain and 111.222.333.444 with our IP address. Since these mails are archived and locatable by google I would rather not post the actual domain and IP publicly. We have enough spammers using us no

FYI, we now have support for ClamAV, although it: (a) is currently a mailet, not a matcher as described in http://www.mail-archive.com/server-user@james.apache.org/msg03218.html (b) requires Java 1.4.x I'd like to see it as a matcher, and we'll have to talk about the runtime requirement

Another question: The CPU hogging appears to be a result of mails failing and being retried. As the queue stacks up, the CPU (and our outgoing mail) bogs down. Anyway, what I have been doing is to stop James, and empty the outgoing queue, which sometimes gets large enough to actually choke the sh

Mail Clients & JAMES

This is related to an earlier posting I made on having issues configuring JAMES to send/receive email to/fro remote mail servers (beyong the localhost). A Java application on my local server can leverage James to send to remote locations but full blown mail clients such as Thunderbird and even Java

Emre, It is very common nowadays to have virus infected machines around the world sending infected emails (or spam) directly to stolen addresses and with forged "From" header and "return-path". So receiving notification emails of not accepted emails *does not imply at all* that your SMTP server

Hi all. I try again with my fetchmail problem. I configured fetchmail in the following way (One account, Many Users): I see that when a mail from a remote sender is addressed to more than one recipient, the fetch task fails because it tries to find a non-existent "for" keyword in the "Rec
