I have my dbmail+postfix+amavis_new+fprot server running
and im blocking 7000 spams+virus a day (2,555,000 per year !outch!).
Well so much for spams comming from the internet.
Yesterday i made a small script using a mysql querry
and the linux sort program to get a cumulative
readout of there last_login.
And via cron i executed that script at every minutes
for 3 hours to get a summary for the 3 hours.
Well i have more then 400 POP3 spammers (teachers with phd).
Some have setup there pc to check for mail every minutes
others at every 2 minutes and others at every 5 minutes even
if they where ask not to do that.
I plan to make a other script to send a automatic email to all
the pop3 spammers.
Does anybody have a other solution ?
1 - Have dbmail 2.0 refuse rapid pop3 queries
but what the heck there getting to dbmail anyway
2 - Quick there derriere
3 - Fire them
4 - Send them back to school so they no 60 x 24 = 1440 pop3 querys a day
5 - Send them back to school so they can help me write scripts
