RE: [HOLD weight]RE: [Declude.JunkMail] FW: %RND_SUBJECTS (This worries me!)
We use IMail 7.15 on a static IP (in fact we have a block of static IPs) from MPower, but they will not delegate or customize the RDNS entries for any customers. As I know from many previous threads, this is VERY common among ISPs. Not having an RDNS entry is a very reliable measure of SPAM, but if it exists, the text of the entry is not reliable. This is why I suggest not giving the type of RDNS entry much credibility, but certainly check if the RDNS exists!!

Our company blocks everything with reverse DNS entry from *.client.comcast.net, *.rr.com, *.du.shawcable.net, *.eastlink.ca, *.client.attbi.com, *client2.attbi.com, *cable.wanadoo.nl, *.de.comcast.net, *.md.comcast.net, *.tn.comcast.net, *.va.comcast.net, *.ipt.aol.com, *.east.verizon.net, *.vie.surfer.at, *.sprint-hsd.net, *cable.wanadoo.nl etc. Additionallly we block everything with *-number-* (like -26-), *.number.*, *.cable.*, *.pp.*, *.ip.*, *modem*, *async*, *rback*, *dyn*, *dhcp*, *ppp*, *dial*, *dsl* in the reverse DNS. This blocks a lot of unwanted emails. It is rare that a reverse DNS entry of a legal mailserver has dsl in the name. We just had one reverse DNS entry that we had to whitelist: mailservers for swiftdsl.com.au. But it helped us to minimize the rbl lookup and speed up the mail processing. There were some people who rang us up because they got the bounce message but all of them didn't have a proper reverse DNS entry for their mailserver. It's up to you how strict you are with blocking emails. But because we do not run a mail service for a lot of clients we can apply strict rules.

I just got this e-mail and I just feel like someone is targeting my domain for a spam campaign. When I hit view source, it only said "test". Any suggestions on how to block this?? I'm surprised that DUL or DYNA didn't catch this at all, looks like it came in though a dynamic Comcast IP not one of their SMTP servers. I put "prod-infinitum.com" into the declude header filter with enough weight to hold it, but I don't think that would be enough.
