Last week I got a client that wanted me to spam virii filter for their
in house exchange server.
I changed the mx from mail.domain.tld (their exchange) to
mail2.domain.tld (my sa box) which relayed to mail.domain.tld.
Last week all worked as expected. The hundreds of spam droped to 0;
until this weekend. Looking at the headers, mail is going directly to
the mail.domain.tld even though it isn't listed as mx anywhere.
I can tell the exchange server to only except mail from my server but
has anyone else experienced this?
Yeah, I've heard other stories of spam bots caching old MX records for
months after they've been changed in the DNS.
