RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Outlook Boundary Space Gap vulnerability

2005-11-21 Thread Lyndon Eaton
Hello All,

I've been searching the archives to do with false positives with the
outlook Boundary Space Gap vulnerability, and found a post
(http://www.mail-archive.com/declude.virus@declude.com/msg12093.html)
that seems to cover the same problem as I've found, whereby the senders
use Outlook > Exchange and then MIMEsweeper, and Declude detects the
OBSGV.

The post mentions Outlook using a TAB to folder headers, and MIMEsweeper
replacing this with 4 spaces. Although this does not seem to be breaking
a specific RFC, would people view this as sloppy coding on Clearswifts
part, or Declude incorrectly detecting a OBSGV?

Regards,
Lyndon.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] HiJack Deccon in 3.0.5

2005-09-27 Thread Lyndon Eaton
Hi,

Just upgraded to Declude version 3.0.5 today (from 1.8!) and I'm a
little unsure of how to monitor HiJack.

Can't get the deccon.exe to open although I know declude now runs as a
service. Had a look at the HiJack manual but can't find anything and
done a quick search in the archives too. 

What am I missing? Could anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Imail 8.1 LOGLEVEL

2004-10-08 Thread Lyndon Eaton
Hello Guys!

On 4th October I upgraded to Declude 1.81 by overwritting the
declude.exe - I left our existing global.cfg and all other files
inplace.

It would seem that the only entries appearing in the declude log files
since then are those for emails that are whitelisted either by
authentication or IP.

IE:
10/07/2004 23:52:44 Qc8bb2f91014a74eb E-mail whitelisted - automatically
passing all spam tests [194.62.46.]
10/07/2004 23:53:44 Q5a4612f09d8 Skipping E-mail from authenticated user
virus2; whitelisted.

I have LOGLEVEL set to LOW and LOG_OK set to NONE.

Before upgrading I would see lines such as:

10/04/2004 00:02:11 Q84e68aa9011c7282 Tests failed [weight=68]:
DSBL=ATTACH SPAMCOP=ATTACH 
10/04/2004 00:02:19 Q84f68aac011cafab Tests failed [weight=5]:
MAILFROM=WARN IPNOTINMX=IGNO

Should I now be doing more than just replacing the declude.exe when
upgrading, have the paramerters for LOGLEVEL changed, or is it a bug?

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Attach action

2004-06-08 Thread Lyndon Eaton
I don't see how you could do this for the information I want. I want
domain to & from, size of email & number of recipients.

To take into account all those things by also including lines from the
declude logs, your program would have to search out the Q names and
follow the trail as you would do manually when following the flow.

Adding some options to the actions within declude would not only
increase its features and make it a more dynamic product but also give
me what I want :)

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Attach action

2004-06-07 Thread Lyndon Eaton
Hello everyone

I have a questions about a function of Declude. Not sure if anything
similar to what I want to achieve is possible, but if not would like to
add this to your wish list.

We have a small program that scans through the Imail logs and exports
the contents of the rdeliver & ldeliver lines to a database. We then use
the database to monitor how many emails we send/receive per domain. 

We also use the attach action in JunkMail, as I think this is the best
way for individual users to manage their spam. 

The problem I have is that I only want to know how many non spam emails
have been sent/received per domain.  So if a domain receives 100 emails
where 30 are spam, I only want the 70 genuine emails to be reported. 

The only way I can think of doing this would be to allow a domain prefix
or alternate domain parameter to the attach action. So if an email is
sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and is detected as spam, the ATTACH action is
run but prefixes or alters the domain to prefix.domain.com. That way
when running a query in the access database, prefix.domain.com (all the
spam) will not be included when running a query on domain.com.

I don't think this is possible at present, but does anybody have any
other ideas as to how this can be done?

The catch here is a technicality of SPF, where it won't allow the "ptr:"
to 
pass if the PTR record matches, but has no A record pointing back to the

same IP.

So in this case, relay03-1.direcpceu.com does contain "direcpceu.com",
but 
since relay03-1.direcpceu.com does not have an A record, it doesn't pass

the test.

[Declude.JunkMail] OT SPF PTR Problem

2004-05-14 Thread Lyndon Eaton
Hi!

I have added many SPF records to all of my domains, and so far not had a
problem.

With one domain however I have a strange issue.

The domain is bedstone.org - and most outbound IP addresses for this
domain will have a reverse lookup ending in direcpceu.com.

I have therefore added a ptr:directpceu.com record to the domain, and
tested it here:
http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/spf.ch?server=bedstone.org&ip=62.128.191.2
6

This page and the SPF test page both say the email should fail. Even
though 62.128.191.26 has a reverse ending in directpceu.com

Any ideas? This is really puzzling me!

Regards,
Lyndon

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Hijack Logs

2004-04-22 Thread Lyndon Eaton
Hi Jeffrey,

You'll need to provide a little more information than that. All that log
snippet shows is that domain.com isn't local, which in itself is not an
issue or a reason to not deliver an email (providing you are allowing
relay for the sender).

Declude HiJack will only block emails based on sender IP, not recipient
domain, so unless the senders IP is being blocked by HiJack, HiJack
won't be the problem. If this is the case, and the sender IP is being
stopped by HiJack - no emails from that IP will be delivered. Are the
clients that are having problems on static or dynamic IP addresses? Also
are there any files in your \imail\spool\spam\hold2 directory? If not
this would confirm HiJack isn't stopping anything.

I'd check the general Imail SMTP logs first, depending on what you have
there would indicate where to look next.

Regards,
Lyndon.

The emails that are not being delivered to the recipients - are they
inbound or outbound? IE is your client the recipient your is your client

> Received: from host-68-212-107-146.msy.bellsouth.net [68.212.107.146]
by mrpcap.com
> Received: from ip-62-129-160-91.evhr.net [62.129.160.91] by mrpcap.com
> Received: from acs-24-154-41-142.zoominternet.net [24.154.41.142] by
mrpcap.com

Only the bolded part of the line (HELO name) is tested.  Basically,
dashes become 'dots', and anything other than numbers and dots are
stripped out.  If what remains looks like a valid 4-octet IP address,
the test fails.

These entries would NOT fail -- stray number make the location of the IP
ambiguous

> Received: from wbar3.lax1-4-8-227-083.dsl-verizon.net [4.8.227.83] by
mrpcap.com 
> Received: from c-24-125-42-12.va.client2.attbi.com [24.125.42.12] by
mrpcap.com  

For testing, I set it up with 0 weight and a HOLD action.  So far, it
has not flagged anything that was not spam.

If anyone is interested in trying it out, let me know.  I'll probably be
putting it up for download from my web site later this week.

No it still works for dialups - We have dynamic & static users and have
not had this problem. We run a script (from the declude site) that sends
an email when messages hit hold2. 

Only yesterday Declude stopped 25,000-30,000 spams from going out from a
client who had been attacked using SMTP AUTH.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: Is IMail Server Upgrade Worth It? 6.06 -> 8.01

2004-04-01 Thread Lyndon Eaton
We've just upgraded from Imail 6.06 to 8.05 (but now 8.1 is out). 

I really wanted to upgrade because there are a number of issues with v6
(and I believe pre 7) that I didn't think were good at all. Small % of
miss deliveries, trying to send mail to domain A records instead of MX,
display bug with W2K SP4, the fact that icons in web messaging didn't
always load. So we upgraded.

Unfortunately I seem to have a problem with the retry timer. It's set to
try sending mail every 30 minutes, with 96 attemps - this works out at
48 hours. However Imail seems to try sending more than once a minute
meaning that 48 hours drops to just over 2! Waiting for a reply from
Imail support but not hopfully, havn't found them very helpful in the
past - hopefully they'll surprise me this time.

Lyndon.

Hello, All,
We are currently running IMail Server 6.06.  We are considering
upgrading to the newest version of IMail and I was interested in knowing
whether the users of this list think the upgrade is worth the price tag?
Does anyone know if there's any reduced upgrade pricing?  Are the
features in the latest versions of IMail of any benefit?

One of the main reasons we are even considering not upgrading is because
IMail Server 6.06 has been so stable for us.  We literally have not had
a problem with it, ever.
We currently have about 200 domains hosted on the server and I don't
know if I want to deal with the fallout and learning curve in getting
the customers accustomed to the new way of doing things, if any, either.

I'd be interested in your feedback.

Thanks,
Dan

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Whitelisting & SPF

2004-03-31 Thread Lyndon Eaton
Hello all,

I've recently added SPF records to all our domains and want to keep a
close eye on which users are not sending mail out through our server
(via my DNS server logs), and which emails we are receiving that are
failing SPF checks. 

I'm getting a lot of fails in the SPF log from my own clients sending
via my server, because I haven't added their dialup ranges into their
SPF records - the SPF records only contain my server range of addresses.
My dialup IPs are all white listed in declude, so with this being the
case, should declude not skip the SPF testing? If not would it be
possible to do so?

Thanks,
Lyndon.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] WARN

2004-03-26 Thread Lyndon Eaton
Last week (I think) I sent an email asking how I can see why an email
failed the BADHEADERS test when I'm also using the ATTACH action.

The answer was that the WARN headers would have been displayed in the
spamattach email.

I've had another email where I could do with identifying why an email
failed the BADHEADER test, but when I go to view the header info in the
spamattach email, as with the attached email that internet headers are
blank. I think this is because Exchange strips them?

Because of this is there another simple way I can find out specifically
triggered the BADHEADER test to fail? Or prevent exchange from stripping
these headers?

Thanks,
Lyndon.

Yep I know. But as we're only using Imail 6 ATM the WHITELIST AUTH does
not work (although the clients are authing).

The solution will by SMTP Auth - so that I don't have to maintain an
whitelist of external IP's. However I'm temporarily whitelisting a
single static IP for this client.

> What has WebMessaging to do with the CMDSPACE problem?

WM has nothing to do with CMDSPACE. What I meant to get across is that
CMDSPACE and HELOBOGUS are causing us a problem (plus no REVDNS with
that provider). Having Imail 8 would allow us to use WHITELIST AUTH
which is what I want to use. Unfortunately I am not allowed to install
Imail 8 yet because my director isnt happy with how the WM template
looks. Which means for the time being im stuck with Imail 6 (meaning I
cant use WHITELIST AUTH - yet).

Its ok, I'm sorted now. As you answered my original question by stating
most mail clients will fail the CMDSPACE test. Therefore nothing wrong
with Declude, so that's fine. I just wanted to check, and then went on
to explain my situation.

Thanks,
Lyndon.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] CMDSPACE

2004-03-23 Thread Lyndon Eaton
They also fail the helobogus. These would not normally be a problem
because the vast majority of clients are within our dialup/xDSL or lease
line range that is already white listed. This client unfortunately has
broadband through another provider!

I had a (mini) brain storm and added WHITELIST AUTH to declude, but it
didn't work. When I checked the declude release notes it stated you
needed Imail 8. We have Imail 8, but it isn't installed yet. Although
I've re-branded the web messaging my director does not want to install
it until its to his liking. I personally think the standard re-branded
web messaging on v8 is better than our v6 customised! I've done all the
customising I'm prepared to though... Never mind!

I've temporarily white listed the external IP, until I'm allowed to
upgrade!

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] SPFPASS (Junk)

2004-03-21 Thread Lyndon Eaton
SPF does not prevent SPAM, only spoofing - which in turn can reduce
spam. I don't even run the SPFPASS test because I think its quite
pointless. If I receive an SPFFAIL on the other hand I block the email
straight away - don't even bother weighting it. 

If a spammer adds SPF to their own domain, when you know its a spammers
domain you can blacklist it. That makes them easier to blacklist before
they go buy another domain. And you would only be blacklisting the
domain, not an ISP with many other innocent users.

Makes perfect sense to me.  Everyone, including ROKSO spammers, can
benefit from implementing SPF defensively, resulting in a valid SPFPASS.
And *their* doing so dilutes the incentive for antispammers to reward
those who implement SPF defensively, which in turn dilutes SPF.
 
As noted in the last 2 weeks, current wisdom is to add points to those
senders that trigger a SPFFAIL, and that rewarding a SPFPASS or
SPFUNKNOWN will reveal no joy.

So zombie spamers forge Habeas, and ROKSO spammers give themselves SPF
records.  Not a surprise.

You can't stop them from doing this, so I might suggest not crediting
any points to those that pass.

Is there a place to report it.
  
It should be treated the same way as regular spam that you would report,

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] WARN

2004-03-18 Thread Lyndon Eaton
There are certain domains that we used to use the WARN action for say
the BADHEADERS test, and the warning would give you a little code to
find out what exactly was wrong with the header.

The WARN action on this test is still there, but another one of the
tests uses the ATTACH action.

In the spamattach.eml file, we are displaying the %HEADERS% but these do
not include the WARNing with the code, and when I open the email
attached and view the internet headers they're blank.

Anyway of being able to find out the BADHEADER codes etc?

Thanks,

In that case they would AUTH. I just wanted to make sure that if the

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Block on HELO

2004-03-17 Thread Lyndon Eaton
Yes Kevin I think you would be right. A Netscape/Mozilla user sending
mail through another ISP for a domain on my server may pass the
'sending' domain in its HELO to the server, but that server should then
not pass the same onto my server - if it did I guess that ISP would have
big problems.

And if a local user was using Netscape, there would be no reason for
them not to SMTP AUTH, meaning they'd be whitelisted. 

Mat would you agree?

Kevin, as I whitelist my IP range anyway, would I need the WHITELIST
AUTH? If the 'Netscape/Mozilla' user were in that range?

If an ISP SMTP server is dynamically changing their HELO to what it
receives from the cleint then the ISP has the issue. The hello from an
ISP should be a valid host name with an IP address or the ISP's domain
name with an MX record. 
 
I have been running the HELO test since DECLUDE started supporting IMail
auth and have 0 reported incidents of a false positive.
 
All the articles I read all say the same thing use SMTP auth when
filtering the HELO on local domain names.

Really? I didn't know that. I thought the HELO represented the FQDN of
the sending server - didn't think it was passed along the chain from the

194.164.103.70 is my IP address, they use it, but are really in this

Is there any way I can use Declude to block this?

Just trying to test the SPF rule on one of my domains, and set the SPF

However my IP range is white listed so I can't test it.

Would it be possible for you to add an SPFPASS and SPFFAIL to your "Test

useful to others.

So if there is a match on:

? neutral

It will be SPFPASS.

If there is a match on:

- fail (ie the -all)

It will be SPFFAIL

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] SPF actions

2004-03-15 Thread Lyndon Eaton
In the global.cfg file the two lines I've added for SPF are:

SPFPASS spf passx
-5  0
SPFFAIL spf failx
8   0

What I would like to know is what SPF responses fall under the SPFFAIL,
and SPFPASS rules.

IE if an email positively fails an SPF test I would want to simply
DELETE the email. I assume a positive fail would be 'SPFFAIL'?

If a domain does not have any SPF records, or the query times out -
would this also be a SPFFAIL or an SPFPASS?


Regards,
Lyndon.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] OT SPF poll

2004-03-11 Thread Lyndon Eaton
After reading up on SPF, Caller-ID and Domain Keys, I'm backing SPF!

I prefer SPF over caller-id because is looks like SPF is being pushed by
the internet community in general, making it easy to adopt by all.
Caller-id on the other hand is being developed and pushed my Microsoft
(trying to take over the world! lol). Caller-id seems to be
unnecessarily longer txt fields compared to SPF, and also unnecessarily
using XML (language written by MS!)

I also prefer SPF over Domain Keys because Domain Keys seem slightly
more unnecessarily complex, with a greater overhead and harder to
implement. Does not have the same issues with mail forwarding as SPF
does, but I believe those issues can still be overcome with SPF.

Lyndon

That is correct. As somebody else has said passing the SPF does not mean
the email isn't spam, and as SPF states it is aimed to work in line with
existing black lists. In that scenario it would prevent the spammer from
hijacking somebody else's domain. And as you said, if static bulk
mailers implemented SPF on their own domains, they'd be somewhat easier
to blacklist.

I'm sure your input is appreciated, the replies you have generated from
other members of the list have helped me see more pros in SPF in the
number of ways it is beneficial. You have certainly prompted more of a
discussion which may have helped other people on the list understand, or
made aware of SPF.

Lyndon.

Wouldn't this be similar to a mail forwarder? Whereby implementing an

I'd agree. Admittedly that's not how our own sites are set to work right
now but I'd change them to confirm to new standards aimed at improving
email authenticity and reducing spam. The internet community has to be
proactive and cooperative if things are to improve.

I'd accept this as an issue, but I'd say this one is down to the client.
The client should be advised to choose an ISP who supports pro-active
measures for reducing spam and improving email authenticity, or accept
the fact that their emails may not be delivered to some companies/ISPs.
This would be similar to clients who use ISPs that are black listed for
whatever reason, or their own server is open relay, and then whinge when
their emails don't get through. Alternatively you could add the IP range
of their ISP to their domain records that you host - better than
nothing.

If a domain is using SPF, and an email is received from an invalid
client IP, you should have the option to reject before receiving.
However in the case with some of your domains, you'd probably use the
neutral or pass all mechanism, allowing others to accept the email but
apply a weighting to it. Wouldn't you agree? It's a two way thing, 1) up
to the receive to decide how stringent they want to be 2) up to the
hostmaster/postmaster to decide what other people should do with emails
received from their domain not passing the SPF test.

Regards,
Lyndon.

There are four, - fail, ~ softfail, + pass & ? Neutral.

There are also:
error (if the DNS fails)
unknown (if the syntax is unrecognised)
none (if there is no SPF info)

How do these difference responses work? Apologies if these have already
been covered...

Scott I remember an issue with SPF that does not fall into pass or fail
but if they use the ? in the spf record the email may be a maby.

Has this been resoved? Or am I understanding it improperly?

I do not want to negative weight a maby if it falls into the pass
category. I know I do not have to negative weight and can use the fail
only.

That's a real shame! If you received a negative response from an SPF
participating domain, you should be able to reject the message straight
off. That way you aren't left 'carrying the can' so to speak, and the
email gets stuck with the HiJacked server or the spammer. Similar to how
AOL reject connected if the rev DNS lookup fails.

You can use SPF to just check. But it would work best when you do both.
Otherwise if nobody implemented, nobody would have anything to check
against - catch 22. 

By implementing you also protect your own domain(s) from being spoofed
(providing the recipient checks against SPF). The more publicity SPF
gets and the more IT bods that implement it, the better everything will
get (in my opinion).

For those that are interested, we now have an interim release with SPF

you 
can add lines such as:

SPFPASS spf passx   -5  0
SPFFAIL spf failx   8   0

to your global.cfg file.  SPF returns "PASS" for E-mail that passes SPF 
(that comes from an IP that is acceptable to the owner of the domani

it claims to be coming from), "FAIL" for E-mail that fails SPF (that
does 
not come from an acceptable IP for the domain), or "UNKNOWN" (for E-mail

from domains that do not use SPF yet, or for some other reason should 
return UNKNOWN).

This will help reduce false positives (for domains that have SPF

and help capture more spam (as spam comes in from domains that have SPF 
support, but the spammer isn't using an acceptable IP).

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Bonded senders

2004-03-10 Thread Lyndon Eaton
The concept behind BONDEDSENDER seems to be the same as HABEAS. But if I
understand things correctly, Declude can not treat the two in the same
way.

To use HABEAS headers you simply enter WHITELIST HABEAS in the
global.cfg. And by using this an email could fail every rule you have
(but pass the HABEAS) and get through.

Lets say you have certain actions that block on rule (not weighting),
using the BONDEDSENDER rule you can not whitelist but only reducing the
weighting?

Scott, is there a way of WHITELISTING a positive BONDEDSENDER? Like you
do with HABEAS?

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Message routing question

2004-03-09 Thread Lyndon Eaton
Its the OE Rule you need to re-write.

With the later versions of OE you have a condition that's is 'Where the
message is from the specified account'.

So in Tools>Accounts>Mail you'd have one profile/account to download
from the main mailbox, and another for downloading from the spam
mailbox.

Instead of setting up a rule the looks at the To: field, get the rule to
perform the action based on 'Where the message is from the specified
account'. 

Hope that makes sence?

Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] Message routing question


Hi,

I need to find a way to route email to a spam folder in a client's
Outlook Express setup.

I had him set up two POP boxes, [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(which OE combines into one folder set) and a message rule so that
anything addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED]  is routed into a spam
folder. This works fine, as I can send mail to user or user-spam and the
message winds up in the right place.

I divert his messages at WEIGHT20. I tried WEIGHT20 MAILBOX SPAM, and
the message goes into the user-spam folder on the server, but the "to"
address is not changed, so it winds up in his main mailbox in OE. I
tried WEIGHT20 ROUTETO [EMAIL PROTECTED], figuring that would force a
rewrite of the to address, but I got the same result - it came in still
addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Ideas, anyone?
