So it would be possibly useful in this case, but again, solving the
issue that created the CBL listing is the most direct route, and less
dependencyon any particular test by adding something like Sniffer
and reducing weights on such things I think is still the best overall
solution.


Not to mention that anything done to reduce the weight of messages into you 
own system does nothing to control how others may be using CBL to weight or 
block spam coming into their systems.  So as Matt said, the best thing to do 
is correct whatever issue got you listed in the first place, and then focus 
your efforts on getting the listing removed.

Re: [Declude.Virus] Declude using CBL to block users sending mail?????

2005-06-13 Thread Matt




I was hoping that someone would correct my mistakes on this instead of
me needing to do another famous reply to my own post :)

In this case you are correct, but there is a little problem in the
details.  Adding DUL, DYNA or DUHL to the name of any dnsbl test in
Declude will result in not only restricting the test to the last hop
only, but it will also disable the test for any E-mail that contains a
local Mail From address, regardless of AUTH.  This would include both
legitimate users as well as zombies that forge local addresses when
sending spam.  This was originally a trick that Scott used before
WHITELIST AUTH existed that protected local users from getting tagged
by dnsbl's, but it also would result in some leaked spam from forging
zombies.

If this was IMail/Declude, adding DUL, DYNA or DUHL to the test name
for CBL would definitely prevent CBL from hitting local users when
WHITELIST AUTH wasn't available.  I can't however vouch for this
working with SmarterMail installations.

So it would be possibly useful in this case, but again, solving the
issue that created the CBL listing is the most direct route, and less
dependency on any particular test by adding something like Sniffer and
reducing weights on such things I think is still the best overall
solution.

Naturally, this would only count with Declude running on IMail, and not

Andrew,

Just to clear up any confusion, this message was sent by Doug through 
his own SmarterMail/Declude server, so his IP was the connecting hop and

the DYNA/hop limiting tricks won't have an effect here.

I think it might be valuable if people resisted the temptation of 
removing IP's from headers when shared because those that might help out

would often benefit from this information.  Sometimes it doesn't really 
matter of course, and Doug did give enough information to figure this 
out, but the three received headers were confusing without a careful
read.

Re: [Declude.Virus] Declude using CBL to block users sending mail?????

2005-06-13 Thread Matt

Doug,

IP's should not be in CBL unless they were found sending E-mail to a 
spam trap, and seemed to be residential in nature or lacked reverse DNS 
entries.  So the primary issue that I see is that your IP was found to 
have sent E-mail to a spam trap.  CBL allows for removal without 
confirmation, so if this problem is no longer there, removal should fix it.


SmarterMail does not presently allow a method for Declude to verify what 
has successfully authenticated.  This is probably the biggest 
shortcoming of a SmarterMail/Declude setup at this time.  SmarterMail 
has indicated that they will likely provide a method for Declude to 
verify AUTH in their 3.0 release due in Q4.  If your user's IP's aren't 
exclusive to your company, and aren't in a fixed range, then there is 
little that can be done about whitelisting authenticated users for the 
time being.  CBL was correct in saying that you don't want to be looking 
up authenticated E-mail on such lists, but it is a common enough 
practice, and that fact alone didn't create the condition where your IP 
became listed.


To work around this in the mean time, you might want drop the scores of 
tests that are fed from spamtraps like CBL and SpamCop.  While CBL is 
very accurate, you don't want a such tests to be trapping your own users 
on legitimate E-mail, so being a little more conservative might help.  
Adding Sniffer would be a great way to allow you to drop scores of such 
tests, and the net result of this would be trapping more spam with fewer 
false positives if you weight things optimally.

[Declude.Virus] Declude using CBL to block users sending mail?????

2005-06-13 Thread Douglas Cohn
My desktop IP was erroneously listed on CBL.  It seems that declude is
checking autheticated users sending mail for CBL and according to CBL this
is wrong.  SEE below

Here is the header showing what went on with the actual Ips removed to
proect the innocent  (ME). But it sure seems that my desktop machine is the
one being checked and shown as on CBL.  Had 10 points been enough I would
not have been able to send mail.  The ONLY address within the below HEADER
that was actually listed in the CBL is the HOST machine sending the email.
NOT the MAIL servers but MY DESKTOP of which I am an authenticated sender.  

Why would declude check an authenticated sender on the CBL list?

This all started because Smartermails SPAM does NOT check the authenticated
senders and this is what confused me intially.  IE I thought Smartermails
SPAM was not working properly on another server where I do NOT have declude
ANTISPAM installed.  BUT as you see according to CBL it should NOT detect
CBL on an autheticated senders IP.

According to CBL this is not how the list is designed.

We're getting a lot of reports of spurious blocking caused by sites using
the CBL to block authenticated access to smarthosts / outgoing mail servers.
THE CBL is only designed to be used on INCOMING mail, i.e. on the hosts that
your MX records point to.

If you use the same hosts for incoming mail and smarthosting, then you
should always ensure that you exempt authenticated clients from CBL checks,
just as you would for dynamic/dialup blocklists.

Another way of putting this is: "Do not use the CBL to block your own
users".

Re: [Declude.Virus] Update

2005-06-13 Thread Avolve Support
Does this contain a fix for declude aborting with the error message that has 
the 0xc142 and then a click ok to terminate the application ?

If not is there a work around ?
