hi there. can somebody point me to a good link that can explain to me the different programs used in adress harvesting.
why? we are suffering from a constant attack that would have drowned our mailserver (on a steady dsl connection) if i would not have built a firewall around it, thrown in a couple of rbl`s and blacklisted manually another 300+ servers, constantly growing. these programs seem to invent new mailservers every second. logs were up to 40 mb (and growing exponentially) as opposed to a usual 500k (we have only 50 users on our mailserver) prior to those attacks. and they are still quite heavy. so i am really curious weather this is just one bot running wild, if somebody included us as a testserver on his bulkmail cd, or whatever might have happened, or weather this is just something really regular that just happens and you have to live with it. in other words. do i have a chance of ever being able to check my logfiles some day again on this poor oldschool first generation power pc or should i just stop caring about these half a million mails to nonexistant users a day and buy a faster computer? any help would be really welcome. s. ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
