RE: Internet Mail Issues

2004-01-08 Thread East, Bill
It's a disenheartening thought that for individual broadband access most
people now have a choice between the two worst customer-service
organizations in the universe, the phone company and the cable company.

Crista, you don't want to hear me sing and I didn't mean to criticize
you, just to point out some facts that hopefully would help you convince
your client to upgrade their service so that you didn't have to jump
through those hoops.

But here's another useful suggestion, provided free of charge and
without Airplane! references. I just Googled on Outbound mail relaying
service and found in one of the first links 
http://www.tzo.com/MainPageServices/ProductSummaries/13_OMR.html

Since Comcast "seems to be blocking themselves": for $99/year, less than
I pay for my personal home page, you can relay off of these guys and
hopefully get out of the RBL ghetto. I'm sure they could tell you how to
set your Exchange server to do it, too. I haven't used this service, I'm
not affiliated with them and for all I know they sell helpless baby
rabbits to Estee Lauder, but if you look at their service and some
competitors you may be able to find a way to at least temporarily get
the mail flowing again until Comcast can fix their BAS or your client
finds another provider.

As we say here in Philly, Good luck wid it.


p.s.: Do you like movies about gladiators?

RE: Internet Mail Issues

2004-01-07 Thread East, Bill
Shirley Comcast will allow you to relay your outbound mail through their
MXed, reverse-DNSed mailhost, right? If so, just point your Exchange
server to relay all outbound mail through them.

If not, ditch Comcast. They're not a business-class ISP in my opinion,
at least.

RE: Outsourcing email?

2003-12-23 Thread East, Bill
Oh yeah, there was one other thing. Since we'll be pointing both primary
and secondary MXen to the MSP, I no longer will have to worry about
script kiddies and nitwits hammering our SMTP servewr (not and Exchange
box, but still a possible weakness). Only the MSP's MXen will be allowed
to access port 25 on that server.

RE: Outsourcing email?

2003-12-23 Thread East, Bill
We're starting a filtering service with a local MSP in a week or so.

My reasoning came down to economies of scale. They can afford to have a
guy watch the recipies full time and tweak them when the spam starts
coming through. They can afford to have someone watch the mailflow and
make sure that mailflow-in minus spam equals mailflow out. And whatever
other companies are using the filtering service will help us by making
the filtering more efficient.

I don't particularly worry about the filterer reading our mail; hell,
how bored would you have to be? And anyone at our ISP, or the sender's,
can hook up a tap any time they want.

RE: Header Info

2003-12-19 Thread East, Bill
If I understand the question correctly, your message won't have *his*
header information. The SMTP conversation should go something like:

Your Server: Yo, here's this email.
His server: Yo, back the truck up, talk to the hand coz port 25 ain't
listenin'
Your server (to you): He wouldn't let me send it.

So the remote server doesn't modify the header and send the message
back, it just rejects it.

RE: Single Use E-Mail?

2003-12-10 Thread East, Bill
David, if you used a Sendmail server (possibly problematic, as it would
add an extra layer in your mail delivery, you could write a very simple
procmail recipe to do this. Probably the simplest solution would be to
send [EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and write in the first line
in the email "This was sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I'm not weighing the merits of your plan, just whether it could be done.

RE: Dropping an email into the Sent items of a user

2003-11-19 Thread East, Bill
Vas, had you thought about sending them (bcc or duplicate) to a public
folder or another mailbox? I could see some advantages; for one, when
the staff member leaves the org you still have the public folder record
of what was sent. You could even make the public folder read-only so
that Bob the Angry Employee can't deny sending the obscenity-laden haiku
to your biggest client.

RE: Internet Header Question

2003-08-14 Thread East, Bill
Who do you trust is the question.

The first line shows that a machine calling itself 169.139.15.251 (Call
it "B") connected to your mailhost ("A"), but your mailhost saw its IP
address was 210.91.16.8. If you own machine B, or if it's your trusted
ISP, that's fine. Otherwise it was just a spammer at 210.91.168.8 trying
to cover his tracks.

The next line after that points to 157.124.218.229. If you trust machine
B to resolve the address correctly, that's where you should look. But if
you don't it is likely misdirection - a forged header.

210.91.168.8 has a lot of listings in http://rbls.org. If it isn't the
spammer, the owner has a lot of problems. 157.124.218.229 has no
listings of significance.

RE: Blocking the Emails that come from yourself

2003-07-17 Thread East, Bill
Blackhole the sites at your router. It's a courtesy issue to notify the
admins for the IP block. The images almost always link back to the sites
and are not imbedded in the images themselves.

RE: Contacts issue

2003-07-16 Thread East, Bill
Profiles, John Parker. If you've modified a profile it sometimes will
retain links back to the old mailbox's contacts folder. I'm trying to
train our folks here to always add/delete profiles, never modify.

Please be giving my regards to John Bigbootie.

RE: S/MIME for public folders?

2003-07-11 Thread East, Bill
Well folks,

In the end I did not find happiness in this problem through Microsoft.
However, we were able to hack together a solution using:
* OpenSSL
* PHPki certificate management software (check Sourceforge for details)
* An ordinary gentleman's handkerchief and 12 milligrams of sodium
bisulfate.

We are generating certs for the public folder using PHPki then sending
the public key to our vendor. Note that the certs appear not to work
within the organization because the Exchange server won't let you send
S/MIME to an address for which it has not generated the certificate.
This is, as my dear Aunt Gladys used to say, enough to piss off the
pope.

But all's well that ends well, right?

S/MIME for public folders?

2003-07-07 Thread East, Bill
I'm running Exchange 2000 and can issue S/MIME keys for individual
users. However, I'd really like to issue one for a public folder. Is
there a simple way to do this that I am missing, or is the feature not
present?

I've set up a test folder and unchecked the box "Hide from Exchange
address lists" - but the folder does not show up as an option in the
Advanced Security section of the SM.

RE: Change FQDN in Ex55

2003-06-10 Thread East, Bill
It looks like you might have to lie to your Exchange server (through a
hosts file, perhaps) to get the headers you want, or, for that matter,
rewrite through a smarthost as sander suggested. But why worry about it?
Let the headers read what they may.

RE: Sending emails that can not be altered

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-

PGP and many other products will at least sign the email so that the
content cannot be changed without invalidating the signature. But
checking signatures requires a PGP client and is much too complicated
for many users.

Well, after a day of frustration I disconnected the user from her Exchange mailbox via 
ADU&C, then reconnected her through ESM. I think she'll be all right now, although I 
have a sneaking suspicion that this account is going to be one of those which, ten

Public folders and the user who wouldn't

2003-04-04 Thread East, Bill
So we've gone through a 5.5 --> 2000 upgrade with some minor problems. But this one 
has me stumped. I have one particular user who cannot be given permissions to any of 
our public folders. There is no error message recorded and the symptoms are the same 
regardless of whether I use Outlook or ESM to make the changes. If I open the Client 
Permissions page, I can click on Add, select the user, and click OK. The user is added 
to the list (always at the bottom) and I can modify her permissions and/or remove her. 
But if I then click on OK the change does not take. If I click on Apply, the user 
immediately disappears from the list of users.

I've taken the steps in both the original and updated versions of Q31 (I found the 
old one on Usenet). I've Looked at the user's setup and she appears to be bog 
standard. I've tried creating new public folders to which to add her. I'm really 
starting to run out of ideas. I wonder if someone else can propose any troubleshooting 
hints?

RE: Strange 550 error

2003-02-12 Thread East, Bill
Actually the name "optonline.net" is misleading, the company I believe is
"Optimum Online" or some such, n'est ce pas? But the name was a point of
discussion, Jeffrey; it appears that the first thing that a spammer does
after bringing the KFC and Schlitz into his trailer is to pick a domain name
with the phrase "opt-in" in it. At the moment I am turfing email from
optinforyou, optindeals, opt-inemail, optinllc, and about 30 other domains
with the word "opt" in them.

RE: Strange 550 error

2003-02-12 Thread East, Bill
As best as I can guess, the remote server is complaining that the format of
your message does not conform to the format it expects, which would be a
user at a local host in the recipient's domain. The other half of the
message is that it's not a gateway, so it will not pass on what appears to
be a non-local address. If you could give us the address to which you are
sending, even in the format @theaddress.tld, we might be able to
guess a little better. Oh, and did you munge the 550 message at all, or is
that how it appeared verbatim?

FWIW, there has been some discussion of your provider, optonline.com, on
news.admin.net-abuse.email in recent days, with the general concensus (hah!)
being that optonline is not a spammer, just a cable modem provider with a
lot of potentially abusable clients. So there is a small but existing
possiblity that you are being blocked due to your address.

So where is the line drawn? You had said

But squeezie pigs are unquestionably a form of compensation. So are free
lunches from vendors, or free drinks at MEC, or the title of MVP. Are some
squeezie pigs more equal than others?

I've always thought that the W3C did a good job of that, but please note
that I have not yet accepted your proposition that there is an "IT
industry," at least insofar as you seem to mean it. I work in the finance
industry right now and I am beholden to follow the rules and regulations of
the NCUA. I was in the insurance industry for a while and the medical
industry before then.

Mayhap the IT vendors need to get together and form a governing professional
body, but in my case at least the rules and regulations of my employers have
been sufficient to keep me on the straight and narrow.

Oh, well that's all right then. Doctors, lawyers, accountants, and engineers

So, here is a gift that they cannot accept. Does that mean that they cannot
accept any gifts? That specific case doesn't expand to a general rule.
Anyway, they're not a real profession. Just the people with depleted uranium
are.

Once again, here is the point that you seem to be missing.

SOME gifts are seen as conflicts of interest. Others are not. Should we look
at the American Bar Association's /Lawyers' Manual on Professional Conduct/?
Section 51 deals with gifts in great detail, setting out guidelines for
which might be acceptable and which might not.

> Getting things for free is viewed as bribery

Yet another absolute statement, that is absolutely wrong. Here's a word that
will help you fix it:

some

The AMA, the governing body of the medical profession, says:

Any gifts accepted by physicians individually should primarily entail a
benefit to patients and should not be of substantial value. 
(http://www.ama-assn.org/ama/pub/article/4001-4236.html)

The AMA suggests in its guidelines that drug samples should be given to
patients first, family second, but it certainly does not say that 

> giving away free samples is seen as a huge problem

So let's review:

In some fields, receiving gifts that are of certain types or are above
certain values from vendors is not permitted. This includes the field in
which I am employed (Credit Unions) and the one in which certain MVPs are
employed (Cheesebucketing).

This is not the same as

Nice absolute statement there, but this isn't an absolute subject. I've had
a pink squeezie pig with a Motorola logo on my monitor for six years now.
Sometimes I bounce it against the wall to help me think. But no-one accuses
me of being a Motorola apologist, and I've bought a sum total of $0 worth of
Motorola kit in that time.

As for that making us "tradespeople" and not "professionals," have a look
around your doctor's office next time you go there.

What on earth is that supposed to mean? Is there a ISO9001 definition of
"profession" that "the IT industry" has failed to apply for? Some people who
work in the IT field can indeed be seen as tradespeople, others as
professionals - the guy who assembles PCs on the line versus Michael Dell,
for example. But if you try to tell a CTO with an MBA that he's not in a
"profession" s/he will most likely still be laughing by the time the
security people have carried you out of the bulding.


> And, accepting any form of
> compensation is a fundamental conflict of interest.

Sure it is. That's why Congresspeople, doctors, lawyers, or architects
aren't allowed to do it. Oops, they all are, aren't they? Just usually there
is a limit on it.

I hope I've rectified that.

RE: outlook OT

2003-01-13 Thread East, Bill
It's probably his POP3 client not recognizing the successful handoff to the
Exchange server. Try having him use IMAP instead. There is no sane MUA that
does POP3 that does not also do IMAP.

RE: Opinions on the best message format.

2003-01-09 Thread East, Bill
In addition to the other objections raised, there are plenty of tricks that
could be done with stylesheets, embedded content, &c. that would
substantially mask or change the content of a message after it had been
received by your lawyers. Plain text makes it much harder to insert small
print.

RE: FAST RESTORE?

I'm not sure I'd agree 100% with you there. I've seen Klez play havoc on an
Exchange server that had some shares that the infected user could write to.
Defense in depth suggests that you want to virus-protect the system and
application files.

RE: Mail Relaying Originator <>

2002-11-06 Thread East, Bill
There are tiny evil gremlins in your server that are sending these messages.
But unlike in the movie "Gremlins," (which was excellent if slightly
technically flawed) these ones will shrivel into dust if they are put in
water. Submerge your server in 24 degree (celcius) water for one full hour
*while it is turned on*. I can't tell you how important this last part is.

Alternately, it is perfectly normal behavior that is discussed in the SMTP
RFCs as well as the list posting FAQ, section 3.39.

Choose wisely.

RE: Mail blasts

2002-10-31 Thread East, Bill
There is not much you have to do. Let's look at a test message, sent by an
Outlook 2000 client through a 5.5 IMS.  I'll type the body of the message
interspersed with my comments, marked by "***" And anyone out there who has
a better grasp on this than I can feel free to correct me.

--- begin included message ---
***First, the usual headers, most of which users can't see and don't care
about. I've snipped a lot of them.
Subject: off we go
Date: Thu, 31 Oct 2002 14:45:44 -0500
MIME-Version: 1.0
X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2653.19)
***The next line is where the MIME content is defined for the recipient's
mailer to read:
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;
boundary="_=_NextPart_001_01C28116.1A26A8C0"
X-RazorChecked: Yes
Status: RO
X-Status:
X-Keywords:
X-UID: 1

***The following line is put in to taunt people who don't use MUAs that
can't read MIME. Unfortunately it will sometimes show up regardless.

This message is in MIME format. Since your mail reader does not understand
this format, some or all of this message may not be legible.

***Following is the part with the "plain text". A MIME-aware MUA that is not
displaying HTML for whatever reason will display just this section.
--_=_NextPart_001_01C28116.1A26A8C0
Content-Type: text/plain;
charset="iso-8859-1"

***And here is the HTML-encoded section of the message. A MIME-aware MUA
that displays HTML will present this.
--_=_NextPart_001_01C28116.1A26A8C0
Content-Type: text/html;

--- end included message ---

So that's how Outlook does it, and on the whole it works out pretty well.
The only real problem is that some people, many of them 'way smarter than
either of us, use mailreaders that will display all of the above, or even
will display the HTML code without prettying it up. So those folks will get
a lot of garbage on their screens. The only saving grace is that by now they
are used to it.

If I were sending mail blasts I'd do them in plain text. But then again, I'd
make the message so persuasive that people would buy my goods or services
even _before_ they had opened the message. It would just be that good.

RE: Brightmail

2002-10-02 Thread East, Bill

I agree that SpamNet has the limitations you mention in architecture. The
client-side software that they put together can't, by its nature, deal with
server-side processing such as MAPI does. Remember that it was designed for
server-side filtering and/or POP3 mailboxes. This is an argument for having
Cloudmark design a gateway or server-based product.

As for whether the community reporting will work, I don't know. Maybe, just
maybe, Dr. EvilSpammer could set it up to blacklist all spam except the
stuff that he sends out - and whitelist that. But he would still have to
generate enough unblock requests to counterbalance all the block requests
that users were sending... The Razor database maintainers aren't dumb
either, and if they were getting unblock requests from a known spamhaus they
might decide to delist that user. I think that the larger the community is,
the less likely that a single spammer will be able to affect the outcome.

As for your example, I guess you need to figure out for yourself what spam
is. I have never agreed to allow someone to sell or give away my email
address, so any time someone tries that line on me Rule 3 applies. Is Kean
really opt-in? Did you request their email? Or are they actually opt-out,
forcing you to unsubscribe from a list you never subscribed to?

In the end I think that the Razor experiment is going to be one worth
watching. It is smarter than dumb filters, and less retributive than
services such as SPEWS. For effectiveness I think it falls somewhere in
between the two as well.

Last but not least, you might want to sign up for one of the Razor lists -
there you'll be talking with the folks working on the code and databases,
although they probably won't help much with questions about the  SpamNet
client.

RE: Brightmail

2002-10-01 Thread East, Bill

Actually I've just completed an installation of Razor, which is the
open-source predecessor to Cloudmark's SpamNet. Like SpamNet, Razor uses
consensus votes to determine what is and is not spam, and by using a simple
procmail script I have the software marking spam as described by the
original poster. It is server-based.

Now the tricky part is that the spam nomination agent (razor-report) and the
revocation agent (razor-revoke) are both un*x-based, so the average user is
not going to be able to use them. It might be possible to set up a reporting
mailbox to which the users could forward the spam and have a script report
them, but let's think about that for a moment. They're users. The first
person here who set up SpamNet was using it to report birthday announcements
from our HR department. If you let the users decide what is spam, you'll
break the model that Razor and SpamNet use: responsible reporting. For that
reason alone I would prefer to have a human filter what users think is spam
before reporting it.

(As a side note, they are now weighing nominations and cancellations so that
as a user you get a "reputation." People who falsely report spam eventually
will just get ignored.)

Now me, I'd suggest that we as Exchange admins lobby Cloudmark to develop a
server-side, NT-based version of SpamNet with the possibility for
client-side nominations. I've already emailed them about this and they say
that their plans are indefinite. But if they see a market for it I suspect
they will go in that direction.

If you are comfortable with un*ces, go to http://razor.sourceforge.net/ to
check out the package. It's quite nice. I am also an advocate of SpamNet on
the client side (http://www.cloudmark.com/).

Cheers all,

I'll add that it is not always under your control, either. If a message is
accepted for relaying by another host (a common occurrance when a primary MX
goes down), that host will try re-sending the message for as long as it is

RE: Determining Klez.H.Worm Origin

2002-07-19 Thread East, Bill

SMTP headers, ducks. At the very least they'll tell you where the
originating system was. Then you can say to the recipient, "hey, do you know
anyone from WeSendVirses.com?" and take it from there.

The other option is to contact the postmaster at the sending domain. I've
had mixed success with that.

RE: Backup MX Record for Alternate Exchange 5.5 Server

2002-07-18 Thread East, Bill

Cost is not usually considered in relation to timing, if that is what you
mean. You could have the second MX set to 10,000 and the individual MTA will
still deal with it according to its preferences.

Ideally if the MTA cannot reach the primary for whatever reason, it will
immediately fall over to the second. RFC 2821, section 5.

RE: CLEVER SPAM EMAIL

2002-07-17 Thread East, Bill

And yet, Baldric^WRobert, there are administrators out there who would not
recognize a clever spam email if it danced up and down in front of them
singing "Clever Spam Emails are Here Again."

Which is (partially) why SMTP has continued to work, since it was designed
to run without too much interference from the administrators; it is also why
the likes of use continue to find employment, since when it does break it is
usually a doozy.

Spot on.

Some enterprising folks may be able to write an event sink for this, I don't
know.

> How effective is Reverse DNS to help the control of Spam?
Not very. A lot of spam comes through legitimate relays, and a lot of valid
mail may come from places without Reverse DNS properly set up. In some
cases, ISPs won't even set up reverse DNS properly for their customers.

Can you rephrase this in the form of a question?

> What about users who have POP and have their return address set to be
> something other than their ISP but they use the ISP as the relay?

Usually you check the HELO against the reverse DNS. So if the relay says
HELO relay.company.com and the reverse DNS matches, no worries.

Often the From: is not checked there.

RE: Message filtering

2002-07-10 Thread East, Bill

Yes you can, at least up to a limit.

I usually go to 
http://www.arin.net/whois/
first, although you might skip this step since you already probably know
they are in Asia. You could skip straight to 
http://www.apnic.net/ 
and go into their Whois feature to look up the owner of the IP address
203.199.81.81. That will tell you that the message is definitely coming from
vsnl.net.

Beyond that, you will have to contact vsnl's admins and ask them which user
has that IP address.

If I lived back in the wild west days, instead of carrying a six-gun in my
holster, I'd carry a soldering iron. That way, if some smart-aleck cowboy
said something like "Hey, look. He's carrying a soldering iron!" and started
laughing, and everybody else started laughing, I could just say, "That's
right, it's a soldering iron. The soldering iron of justice." Then everybody
would get real quiet and ashamed, because they had made fun of the soldering
iron of justice, and I could probably hit them up for a free drink.

RE: Mailbox Privacy

2002-06-25 Thread East, Bill

We've seen this when people inherit old boxen and change (as opposed to
deleting and creating a new one) the profile on the machine. Some hooks to
the old mailbox remain and the event is generated when the user starts up
Outlook.

I agree with the rest of the crowd, though - turn off the disclaimer, at
least when you are conversing with civili[s/z]ed folk.

RE: How to block UCE at MSX55-IMC level

2002-06-21 Thread East, Bill

To all - 

I've not researched this too carefully, but there was an announcement
earlier this week about a product from cloudmark.com that will enable your
end-users to better handle their own spam. I'm not associated with them and
I really cannot say whether it will work as advertised, but from what I read
on thier site it may be worth a look. It works with Outlook 2000 and XP (do
you use Outlook?)

FW: Monitoring application for Exchange

2002-06-18 Thread East, Bill

Dangit. I don't know what key I hit.

Anyway,

dumpel -f c:\scratch\fred.txt -l system|application -m /youreventsource/ -e
/youreventnumber/
grep /youreventnumber/ c:\scratch\fred.txt
if not errorlevel 1 /your command-line mailer commands/
del c:\scratch\fred.txt

I've only tested it a little, but of course you could do a bunch of
different tests with grep each time.

RE: Monitoring application for Exchange

2002-06-18 Thread East, Bill

That was fun.

You will need:
The NT Resource Kit
Scissors (ask your parents!)
A cookie (optional)
A command-line mailer (blat, wsendmail, what have you).

Using the at facility, schedule a regular dump of the Event Log using the
dumpel utility, then grep for the string you want.

dumpel -f c:\scratch\fred.txt -l system -m

RE: Speed

2002-05-24 Thread East, Bill

Yo.

If you back off a step, are there other options apart from consolidating the
9 Exchange servers into 1? Can you move the smaller offices onto the central
server but leave servers at the bigger sites? Can you have several hub
sites, where small local offices have dedicated lines into large local
offices (design it right and you'll save on telco charges).

For what it is worth, we have one central server for several remote sites,
each of which has between 8 and 16 channels of a T. But we also run a great
deal of other traffic over those lines, and since all our sites are within
city limits the line costs are minimal.

Well I hope you don't think I feel that way. I tend to be fairly
platform-neutral, although I will admit that so far Microsoft has written
the best client for Exchange.

Interesting perspective, but I don't see the basis for your conclusions.
Sure, port 80 is passed by most firewalls, but it is also highly insecure,
stateless, and has significant overhead (SSL, of course, still has the
latter two problems with even more overhead). Similarly, the "well-equipped
browser" has so far failed to replace certain applications - word
processors, spreadsheets, and mailtools among them. The average browser does
not have facilities built into it which can do local storage or indexing,
and these are things that you need. I find it significant that Microsoft has
_not_ tried to fold their mailtool into Internet Explorer, instead bundling
it as a seperate application (Outlook Express). So I would have to say that
both http and Web browsers have too many historical restraints to
effectively do what you want.

I'd be willing to bet you a dollar that the successor to MAPI will not be
http. Microsoft may decide to embrace and extend IMAP, or may design a new
protocol from the ground up. And the client will run as a seperate process,
not in the browser (unless it's as an ActiveX component).

I'd say actually that we are starting to move away from the "run everything
in a browser" mentality. I'm finally starting to see some exceptional
programming done in Java although of course if you want speed and
reliability you still stick with one of the C variants. Browsers are great
for applets - I appreciate the capability to interface with a router through
one - but in the end are a bit too Procrustean for my tastes.

The best I can do is guess. But the process could be going like this:

Disk: here's your data.
CPU:OKOKIGOTITI'MDONEWRITEITOUTGIMMEMORENOWGIMMEGIMME
Disk: Um, hang on a second.

Understand that this is not an exact transcription of the process. But I'm
sure you get the idea. The system has to write and read in chunks; obviously
it won't load all 72GB of your store into your 384 MB of RAM.

I'm puzzled by this approach, Craig.

Let's say you're at an airport kiosk. You're going to download the synch
file, then what? Copy it to a floppy? What if it's more that 1.44MB? What if
the kiosk doesn't have a floppy drive? If you're using a PDA, how do you
transfer the file to there?

OTOH, let's say you're hooked into a WLAN in the Executive Lounge from your
own laptop or PDA. You can then fire up your VPN software, connect into your
LAN and synch using the copy of Outlook on your PC. If you don't use
Outlook, as many others have pointed out, you can use an IMAP client.

Synchronization to an OST presumes that you have Outlook installed, so why
re-create the wheel? OWA was built to be run from any browser anywhere (I
can even convince Opera to load it if I work at it), but like most Web-based
services, presumes a connection for the duration of the session.

Implementation of this isn't trivial, and there already exist multiple

Well, no. If you have an IMAP/MAPI client and a Web browser on your handheld
you're in good shape. But your Web browser sucks as a mailtool, so why not
use the IMAP/MAPI client?

RE: OT outlook ops

2002-03-05 Thread East, Bill

This could be a fun project for someone with a little scripting skill.

First, move all of the messages into an otherwise empty Inbox folder.
Second, count the messages.
Third, write a script that will do a POP3 connection with the server and
RETR each message. Save the results to a text file.
Fourth, grep the text file for the From: headers to get the addresses out to
a list file.
Fifth, do a sed script to remove duplicates from the file.

There are scripting gurus who could knock this out in an afternoon. But
there are also people who could make this five-step process the single goal
to accomplish by the time they retire and still not come up with a solution.
I tend toward the latter.

RE: Blocking javascript email?

2002-03-01 Thread East, Bill

If you set IE to prompt you whether you want to run scripts, Outlook will
prompt you for it as well. It also cuts down on the annoying jumping
signatures, not to mention the popup disclaimers and other Stupid Outlook
Tricks.

The downside is that you will see a lot of prompts when browsing.

RE: Alternative to UNIX procmail in Exchange

2002-02-22 Thread East, Bill

Hey Tom, you're going to feel kind of dumb high-centered on a log in that
Ferrari. Sendmail is just as powerful and far more flexible than Exchange -
in certain areas. Chaining a Sendmail server in front of an Exchange server
is a valid solution, as is Ed's idea.

To Samir, the original poster, you might also look at Slipstick.com and see
if any of the solutions there will help. Rules-based spam filtering is
getting more and more desirable as an add-on for all of us.

RE: Name Resolution problems

2002-01-24 Thread East, Bill

1) Who is the WINS server? If it has the name stuck in its cache I suppose
that could be a problem...

2) Can you sniff the port for traffic relating to the name resolution? You
might be able to tell whether to look at DNS, WINS, or a local setting for
the information.

RE: Name Resolution problems

2002-01-24 Thread East, Bill

When you try to ping, are you using just the server name ("foo") or the FQDN
("foo.bar.baz")? Do you see different results with either one of those?

Under ipconfig -all, what is the node type?
