I tried to look up my answers but the pages are gone so I will ask here.
1. I want to totally reject any mail that is not addressed to an
account on sims - how do i do that?
2. I am getting a lot of NULL emails in my queue. I think you can
put a line in the router to delete these. Is there a way to reject
or is it easier to put a command in the router to delete. What
would that command be?
Thanks for any help. It appears that SIMS has just about be
abandoned. I hope someone is here to help
There are a couple of us still hanging around...
The nulls are simply the result of your server trying to answer all
the spam, and not finding anywhere to reply to. They're not really
hurting anything and will go away on their own after whatever time
you've configured it to keep rejected mails (usually 3 days).
Hopefully you're using the latest beta version (1.8b9d14) as it has
the most complete set of anti-spam tools of any SIMS. It includes
some protections against dictionary attacks, which is probably at
least some of what you're seeing.
I'm pretty much only using sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org for blacklisting
these days, as I have ASSP sitting in front of SIMS and it catches a
large portion of the junk. (sourceforge.net/assp/).
