I'm concerned. When I got out of the shower just now and came to check my email, I didn't have any. Concerned that sendmail might not be running, I ps'd for it:
bullet mail # ps ax | grep 'sendmail' 9939 ? Ss 0:00 sendmail: Queue [EMAIL PROTECTED]:30:00 for /var/spool/clientmqueue 10305 ? Ss 0:00 sendmail: accepting connections 10801 ? S 0:00 sendmail: ./k0FKmpDE010833 gpeplpqel.shankscape.com.: user open 10810 pts/0 R+ 0:00 grep sendmail I see that sendmail is connected with gpeplpqel.shankscape.com. I assume that someone at that host is trying to send mail to my domain, but I checked /var/spool/mail and I didn't see anything from them. I ps'd sendmail again and saw that they were no longer connected. I checked /var/log/maillog and see a bunch of these: Jan 17 11:04:10 bullet sm-mta[10801]: k0FKmpDE010833: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, delay=1+20:15:18, xdelay=00:03:10, mailer=esmtp, pri=8599167, relay=gpeplpqel.shankscape.com. [69.25.212.153], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection timed out with gpeplpqel.shankscape.com. Is there a way to make sure that unauthorized people are not sending mail through my domain? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
