This isnt backscatter though. The only message body is the spam, no info about bouncing at all. Im familiar with the backscatter as my users: [EMAIL PROTECTED] really gets a ton of it (duh).
This is just spam coming in from nobody with 2 from lines and a body that is pure junk, not mailer daemon info. on 1/5/06 4:48 PM, Matt Kettler at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >> This is slightly off topic, but im sure everyone here might have thoughts on >> it. >> >> I have over 9300 instances of empty "from" lines so far this week, for >> example: >> >> Jan 5 16:36:46 mail sendmail[7568]: k05LajgX007568: from=<>, size=1578, >> class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<VIEQUES>, proto=SMTP, daemon=MTA, >> relay=pool-151-197-121-196.phil.east.verizon.net [151.197.121.196] >> >> These messages turn out to be like this: >>> From MAILER-DAEMON Thu Jan 5 16:36:46 2006 >> From: Mable Hollis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> Subject: [SPAM (29.3)] Re: hi hi >> >> As you can see, spamassassin takes care of it pretty well, but if I can >> block the emails before the MTA, I should be better off, right?
