RE: [Declude.JunkMail] mail held when customer is cc'ed
I'm sure Scott will correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you need to set everything to Ignore for her customer.junkmail file. That's the recommended way to set it up if the user doesn't want any scanning. However, even if the WARN action is used for all tests, the mail shouldn't get held. I'm guessing that the per-user configuration file isn't being used; it must be placed in the correct directory (IE if the official domain name in the IMail settings is 'mail.example.com' with 'example.com' as a host alias, the file would need to be \IMail\Declude\mail.example.com\user.JunkMail). -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

[Declude.JunkMail] BLACKLISTS -
Hi, http://www.informationweek.com/story/IWK20021115S0018 After reading this article, I changed our setup to weight the blacklist to 7 and delete email at weight20. This waters down the blacklist a bit but removes the reliance...anyone else doing the same or similar? regards, -- Fred Sadowick 1stChoiceInternational.com -- --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

http://www.informationweek.com/story/IWK20021115S0018 After reading this article, I changed our setup to weight the blacklist to 7 and delete email at weight20. Which blacklist? What was it set to before you read that article? Why did you change it after reading that article? -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

SPAM, Monday, November 18, 2002 you wrote: S After reading this article, I changed our setup to weight the S blacklist to 7 and delete email at weight20. This waters down the S blacklist a bit but removes the reliance...anyone else doing the S same or similar? I think I understand what information in the article made you change your testing. However, it is more and more evident to me and my testing that every community of mail users is different and requires a different set of tests and actions. I think it is entirely possible that one admin might get excellent results with an RBL and another might not. So I think you have to devise a way to constantly monitor and tweak. I think that's the real message of the article - not just that rbl's are not as effective as they once were. However, we employ SNIFFER and get great results. We now fail on it alone after working out our lists and a few other peculiar issues. It has been well worth the fee.

The blacklist is the one generated by killlistgen. We were going to delete mail based on it...now we downgraded to warn and added to weighting so most do not get thru. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of R.

[Declude.JunkMail] Domains for hostage
John, This is a little off topic, but I've found these guys to be good at quick-registering domain names: http://www.snapnames.com/ Their technology and service seems sound. They also have a domain protection service, but I've not used it. Dan On Thursday, November 14, 2002 12:58, John Shacklett [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: We just reclaimed an old domain name. We had it for a couple of years, then it expired and some bandits in the Philippines grabbed it and held it hostage, and when it expired again we grabbed it back. The day, and I mean the very day, that I put that domain in as an alias for our primary domain, I started receiving a flood of crap for employees that left more than five years ago. I was astounded. Talk about firing blanks. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Glenn \ WCNet Sent: Thursday, 14 November 2002 3:39 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] Are spammers idiots?? I've been clearing some mail accounts that customers have abandoned, haven't checked their mail for a couple months or longer. It's not unusual to find 4000 messages or more, 20 MB or more, ALL of it spam. No one on a dial-up connection is going to wait for all that mail to download, and nobody using WebMail has the patience to wade through all that debris. My point being that spammers can easily overload a mail server, sap up all the drive space if some kind of spam control isn't in place. What would be the point? They're cutting their own throats, so to speak.
