Pretty much ny time I give out an address (submit it on a form, give it to a company I'm dealing with, put it on a web-page or mail list), I use a one-time address. Like, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". If I'm signing up at the foobar.com web site, I'll use "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". You get the idea. Particularly useful on Usenet where I use "jafo-200010" (year-month) so I can gradually expire them as the UCE picks up. I bitch and moan and boycott companies that I do business with who sell or otherwise provide my address to others (remember, I can tell because of the above). I used the badrcptto patch so that in addition to rejecting on the envelope from address, I can do the same with the to. I used to use a bounce, but the UCE almost always had invalid return addresses so I just started refusing e-mail for it. I set up a filter for my inbox which sorts out things based on recpieint, does a MAPS lookup as it's being put in my mail folder, and other fairly complex rules, and sorts them out. See ftp.tummy.com:/pub/tummy/pyspam for the code as it is after a week of poking. All this has reduced the UCE going in to my main box to about 2 messages per day. This is on an address I've had for a decade, mind you, and I have in the past gotten 10 or more UCE messages per day. I did an evaluation of a SMTP filter program last weekend, and while it was thorough, I didn't like it. Cost around $5k per machine, and just was fairly inflexable. I mean, if you're charging those rates, you're selling to large customers (ISPs, businesses, etc). The problem is that this was an all or nothing, it had no ability to tune it on a user-by-user basis.

2 QUESTIONS
Hi all. I have 2 questions to submit. 1)The first is a newbye question about ezmlm program. Can i create mailing list without user name? In the examples doc, i must supply [EMAIL PROTECTED], but if i want to create only [EMAIL PROTECTED] (like [EMAIL PROTECTED])? 2)I'm managing a mail server with qmail. I have about 200 users and 50 virtual domains, and all my configuration works correctly. I have created about 180 real users (passwd and shadow files) in my system for managing virtual domains accounts. I know that many servers (with qmail) over the internet, host a lot of virtual users (1), but i can't think they created 9000 real users!! Someone can tell me if there was a method to avoid the creation of real account for managing virtual users? Thanks.

It is totally compatible with the /var/spool/mail/user format if you NEED to continue using it. Think about it...it is more secure, more flexible, more everything. You won't regret a changeover and it will save you a whole lot of hassle trying to run two smtp servers at once.

qmail Memphis RPM relaying by default?
I had to reinstall Qmail a couple months ago, and used the Memphis RPM. I didn't pay much attention to default parameters, as I copied qmail/control from my old install. Well it turns out that Memphis is using tcprules, and tcprules.d/qmail-smtpd happened to be: :allow,RELAYCLIENT="" ... Which I found out the hard way after a spammer used my system as a relay ... Doh! I don't know how it got set up that way.
Spam control
Being a newbie to Qmail I am interested in how other people are controlling their spam rules.

Basically, having an alias means that something that isn't real points to a place that is real. Sendmail's implementation, although the first, is stupid and incoherent. It doesn't even adhere to the real meaning of the word alias. If you have a lot like this (why? Why not just allow home users to pick up their mail via IMAP if they need access at home and work?), then you may want to whack up a quick perl or sed script to take care of it. -- === |User: |Href: |Status:| --- |Brett Randall |http://xbox.ipsware.com/|Hibernating| === Generated by Microsoft Ass-Watcher s/(c)/(!c)/g 2003

Re: tcpserver daemon tools and xinetd
"John Chronakis" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: qmail.org and qmail's author clearlly suggest to use tcpserver for qmail-smtpd and this is enough for me. But there is not any clear suggestion for using daemon tools instead of a superserver like xinetd (inetd is out of the question). In addition, the "install" file from the qmail source destribution has an example for using inetd to launch qmail-smtpd and pop3d. qmail-smtpd can be served via inetd, xinetd, or tcpserver. The INSTALL file suggested inetd because it used to be the preferred method. The current recommendation is tcpserver from ucspi-tcp. I don't know how well xinetd works with qmail, though. One thing you need is the ability to set environment variables based on the IP address of the remote system. If xinetd can do that--it's been years since I've touched it--then it should work well with qmail. On the other hand qmail-howto, and allmost every othe document about qmail, are suggesting using daemon tools. ucspi-tcp, not daemontools, although daemontools is also recommended. Friends of mine working as administrators in medium size ISPs, are suggesting to use qmail-smtpd and qmail-pop3d with xinetd like they do. Why do they prefer it to tcpserver? All these different oppinions confused me. It's better to have a confusing array of options than to be stuck with a single frustrating utility. I just want to know the best way to control qmail since I am expecting a high number of mail users. What I am concerned is a reliable, stable and efficient mail delivery. You can't go wrong with ucspi-tcp + daemontools. -Dave

RE: devlivery problem
Timeout or rejection when trying establish a TCP connection to the remote server. Try it yourself with the telnet program and see if you can establish such a connection. Chances are you can't. Doing so will allow you to tell if its a no-route or no-data timeout or what.
