The closest you can come here, it would seem, would be to block the entire Pacific Rim. What about APNIC? -Stephen-

You're better of using tcpserver's rules file to block by domain address, assuming they don't have false DNS entries to hide their origin, in which case you would need to block by IP address. -- Nick (Keith) Fish Network Engineer Triton Technologies, Inc.

RE: Spam Removal
Please let know if you find a way to block all of the domains you mentioned. Also do you think someone like arin.net would have there blocks of ips on file and then we can just block them ?

Sounds like you have a "default" mailbox set up. Just remove that mailbox and make sure each user has a .qmail file and those messages will be bounce. As to denying the servers they are using, I have been watching them. They originate from a different address that traced to .kr or .cn or some other unfriendly country, so you can't email their provider to turn them off. They also relay from a different relay each time. Every time they start these campaigns I get their spam for a few days, then every email address on their list gets 10 times the spam for a while. I am considering screening out ALL .cn and .kr mailservers. Is there an easy way to do that? Ed Weinberg, Q5 Comm, LLC.

Re: Spam Removal
I have already done this and yes i do have pop b4 smtp setup and running so i am not asking about me being a relay as some people on the list think. Does anyone know a good how to or site where i can get info on rejecting all mail that is not addressed directly to me or my users ? ie so if it get mail like i did earlier that was sent to : [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> It will just delete it or send it to a bulk mail folder ? I know that hotmail and excite have features like this so it should be possible i belive .

Ahh . . . if only we could sue them, think of the money to be had there. In all seriousness, just throw their mail server's IP address/block into your tcpservers' rules with a deny parameter. -- Nick (Keith) Fish Network Engineer Triton Technologies, Inc.

I realize this is like closing the barn door after the horse has escaped, but --- as a general rule, you *never* reply to "To Remove, Send Us An E-mail" lines in a piece of spam. As you have now painfully discovered, 90% of the time that information is used to send you yet more spam. For the spammer, it's a confirmation that the address they have is valid. -Stephen-
