[spamdyke-users] problems with DENIED_IP_IN_CC_RDNS
Hi, I am running latest spamdyke on couple of boxes with just plain config like: log-level=2 reject-empty-rdns reject-unresolvable-rdns reject-ip-in-cc-rdns greeting-delay-secs=5 but when I check the logs i see that DENIED_IP_IN_CC_RDNS does not work as expected. At the same time I see entries like: Apr 22 00:53:12 b1 spamdyke[24736]: DENIED_IP_IN_CC_RDNS from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to: XX origin_ip: 85.107.109.226 origin_rdns: dsl85-107-28130.ttnet.net.tr auth: (unknown) Apr 22 00:53:12 b1 spamdyke[24732]: DENIED_IP_IN_CC_RDNS from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to: XX origin_ip: 87.248.169.195 origin_rdns: 87-248-169-195.starnet.md auth: (unknown) Apr 22 00:53:27 b1 spamdyke[24738]: DENIED_IP_IN_CC_RDNS from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to: XX origin_ip: 190.55.105.219 origin_rdns: cpe-190-55-105-219.telecentro.com.ar auth: (unknown) Apr 22 00:53:29 b1 spamdyke[24740]: DENIED_IP_IN_CC_RDNS from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to: XX origin_ip: 190.173.222.12 origin_rdns: 190-173-222-12.speedy.com.ar auth: (unknown) Apr 22 00:53:52 b1 spamdyke[24743]: DENIED_IP_IN_CC_RDNS from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to: XX origin_ip: 190.55.105.219 origin_rdns: cpe-190-55-105-219.telecentro.com.ar auth: (unknown) but also these: Apr 22 00:51:30 b1 spamdyke[23611]: ALLOWED from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to: XX origin_ip: 68.38.167.167 origin_rdns: c-68-38-167-167.hsd1.nj.comcast.net auth: (unknown) Apr 22 00:51:31 b1 spamdyke[23612]: ALLOWED from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to: XX origin_ip: 65.83.199.240 origin_rdns: adsl-83-199-240.asm.bellsouth.net auth: (unknown) Apr 22 00:51:39 b1 spamdyke[23742]: ALLOWED from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to: XX origin_ip: 64.237.158.67 origin_rdns: adsl-64-237-158-67.prtc.net auth: (unknown) Apr 22 00:51:42 b1 spamdyke[23744]: ALLOWED from: (unknown) to: XX origin_ip: 146.82.152.68 origin_rdns: mman.smacek.com auth: (unknown) Apr 22 00:52:21 b1 spamdyke[23999]: ALLOWED from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to: XX origin_ip: 72.82.207.15 origin_rdns: pool-72-82-207-15.cmdnnj.east.verizon.net auth: (unknown) whose, to my underdstanding should be already trapped in DENIED_IP_IN_CC_RDNS but passed.

[spamdyke-users] Greylisting wishes
Hi, For graylisting to work in current version "the domain folders must be created before graylisting will work. This is the most common mistake when setting up spamdyke to perform graylisting". May I opt for a feature to just make spamdyke graylist all the connections *without* the need of the folder existence? If it is needed -> just mkdir() it and go ahead. It'd simplify the whole thing a lot as many people (inluding yours truly) just want all the traffic to be always graylisted (with optional exceptions). The need of manually created domain folder is sort-of pain in the a** for me. -- Regards, Marcin ___ spamdyke-users mailing list spamdyke-users@spamdyke.org http://www.spamdyke.org/mailman/listinfo/spamdyke-users

Doesn't that already identify greylisted e-mails? No. One means message is graylisted, the other, message has passed. It does not mean "message was posted again due to graylist" as ALLOWED may be there i.e. due to whitelists for example.

[spamdyke-users] feature request: Test mode
Hi, I'd love to see sort of test mode. So I could i.e. enable log-ip-in-cc-rdns which would work the same way known reject-ip-in-cc-rdns works but without really denying matching connection. It shall just log it (i.e. as TEST_IP_IN_CC_RDNS) and that's it. That would be extremely useful to run on production environment for some time to find out how it would act "for real". I'd analyse logs then to decide if I'd benefit or not, or how to configure whitelists to have this option work as best for my users as it possibly could. Test mode could be available for most options it'd make sense for. Marcin ___ spamdyke-users mailing list spamdyke-users@spamdyke.org http://www.spamdyke.org/mailman/listinfo/spamdyke-users

[spamdyke-users] DENIED_IP_IN_(CC)_RDNS
Hi, Anyone by any chance did sort of research if DENIED_IP_IN_*_RDNS helps his users or causes more problems? I formerly thought that this is more helpful, as IP in RDNS is most likely appear for home dsls, dialups and other stuff not supposed to run smtp server i shall trust, and if it's my users mail netline, then they shall authenticate while talkign to me anyway. But now I see that some telecoms offer dsls with static IPs (contrary to dyniamic one, rotated 24hs, that is addressed to home users) which is primarily used by companies, and therefore it's less likely for them to be spam source (due to botnes, zombies etc). I even saw a data center which named their rack hosts that way. I therefore think that it might be extremely useful to try to build a kind of database of providers who one may consider whitelisting even, they would otherwise fall into IP_IN_RDNS or IP_IN_CC_RDNS trap. Any thoughts? Marcin ___ spamdyke-users mailing list spamdyke-users@spamdyke.org http://www.spamdyke.org/mailman/listinfo/spamdyke-users

[spamdyke-users] Graylisting - how effective it really is?
Hi, I wonder if anyone tried to analyze his logs to find out how effective gray listing is. I'd probably prefer to allow all incoming mails (maybe with exceptions) and even disable DENIED_IP_IN_CC_RDNS blockers as it yet causes too much collateral damages I can accept, even 99% of the mails DENIED_IP_IN_CC_RDNS deny is spam, then I got still 1% remaining - and this ususally causes some problems, but I yet like to deny mass-flood-senders.

You misunderstand the way MTA works. Google most likely removes duplicate receipients *prior* sending the mail. To conclude: 1) do not do that on MTA level. 2) spamdyke won't help you with this idea though. ___ spamdyke-users mailing list spamdyke-users@spamdyke.org http://www.spamdyke.org/mailman/listinfo/spamdyke-users

[spamdyke-users] graylisting timeout problems
Hi, I use spamdyke 3 and got graylisting enabled. My expiration time of graylisting "token" is set to one week. However, despite continous mail exchange between two email addresses I still see graylisting to take place. What I used to believe was that once user A sent mail to B, then A's server retried once graylisted the "token" spamdyke created for that pair is valid for one week. But I also believed that on each new delivery from A to B this token is touch'ed, so my cron invoked clean up script would remove all tokens older than one week while "older than one week" means that there was no mails from A to B for a week, not "one week since graylisted". Anyone could please confirm my findings? If I am right, does spamdyke 4 fixes that issue? Regards, -- "Daddy, what does 'Formatting drive C:' mean?"...

[spamdyke-users] Fighting BCC spam
Hi, Apologies for partially off-topic thread, however not spamdyke but qmail/spam related. I recently noticed increased number of what I call "BCC Spam". It looks like From: is external, To: is local user (so mail is accepted) but there're also external BCC: recepipients. To my understanding (which aparently seems incorrect?) qmail should only bother BCC is From is local. But it does not and happily spends this spam out to BCC: targets. I did not investigate deeply yet, but as a quick solution I could probably play with qmail-inject.c to tweak qmail a bit but I do not like this approach right now, so I wonder if anyone else faced this issue already and manage to solve it?

By "From: is external" I meant sender's email address found in envelope, and I was refering to email address which is not hosted on our machines i.e. f...@bar.cx (and we do not host bar.cx). It also was not authenticated but as To: is our user then qmail accepted it (which is ok). The BCC handling however does not sound OK to me, hence my question.

[spamdyke-users] Long delay on connection (before SMTP prompt appear)
hi, I got odd issue with one of my smtp box and I got some problems finding the culprit out. The problem is that it takes ages for smptd prompt to appear: # telnet localhost 25 Trying 127.0.0.1... [... wait, wait, wait ...] Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. 220 Welcome to mail delivery server ESMTP The wait time vary but is often 60+ secs, so MUA with default 60 secs timeout complain. All is started that way: ${TCPSERVER} -v -l ${HOSTNAME} -H -R -c 500 -u 1004 -g 1003 0 smtp ${SPAMDYKE} ${SMTPD} ${MYNAME} ${CHECKPASSSMTP} /bin/true 2>&1 | cat /dev/null & (Variables are fine), my name is `hostname` output and resolves both ways. Sometimes (frequently enough to not ignore it) I also see max number of instances of app invoked by tcpserver (usually 503) but at the same time the log does not indicate such increase of traffic (usually there are 30-40). At the same time there's said delay, launching ./qmail-smtp by hand shows no delay, so I suspect tcpserver or spamdyke steps (or something they relay on). My first guess was dns, but there's caching dns running locally plus I disabled whatever I could to make tcpserver staying away from resolving anything. Spamdyke config holds dns-level=none for the same purpose. Any ideas? Regards, -- "Daddy, what "Formatting drive C:" means?"...

If anyone got idea or suggestion where to peek or what type of test I should execute to push this forward I am all ears and willing. Thanks for all the feedback guys.

Re: [spamdyke-users] Filtering based on From/Mail From - how early I can do that?
no, no. i mean i want to filter based on the content that shows up in quoted log entry as 'from' as quickly as it become available. i already got one running but i modified sender blacklist filter for this. from what i see dnsbl are queried earlier which would make sense as all you need is sender's ip, but i do not fully understand what is rbl logged entry 'from' content from (or whst data spamdyke got before it llaunch 1st filter it can)? and as it is there my question is - is it safe to put my filter as 1st, before rbl? in 97% spam i fight now can be blocked safely with my filter only, but i'd like to keep rbls. now i got them off. another question - there are 3 blocks of filter calls in spamdyke.c - why (it's simplier to as instead of reading thid big if/else serpent that leads to it :)?

There's no outdated comments when you add onliners around the code. moslty because you comment the logic not the code itself.

[spamdyke-users] Detailed control on graylisting per receipient's email/domain
Hi, I think I'd like to have option to let my users disable graylisting. But since I'd like it to be per user therefore I'd like to be able to define graylist-exception-ip-file and graylist-exception-rdns-file (or -dir as that would be faster) per *receipient's email or domain*. Here's how I'd think it might be implemented. Say I host j...@domain.com. I'd like to be able to define that if mail comes from remote server (with IP A.B.C.D and rdns mail.reverse.com) and receipient is j...@domain.com, spamdyke would check if there's /domain.com/j...@domain.com/graylist-exception-ip-dir/A.B.C.D and if so, skip graylisting. If not such file it'd check /domain.com/j...@domain.com/graylist-exception-rdns-dir/ mail.reverse.com if exists - graylist is skipped. if not it now (depending on the settings as I believe some may not want such detailed configurability) would check /domain.com/graylist-exception-ip-dir/A.B.C.D and /domain.com/graylist-exception-rdns-dir/ if no match, global settings apply. It needs some thoughts on how fallback (email->account@domain->domain) should work assuming both white and black lists are used but that's quite obvious. Any thoughts?

Well, it shouldn't be a problem, because if they should not mails from @customer.tld via 3rd party server in the 1st place. And if they send via your server then they have to do SMTP AUTH first.

[spamdyke-users] Blocking sending if FROM: != SMTP AUTH userId
Hi, Is there a way to reject mails if authenticated user id (which is email address in my case) mismatch what is set in From: of the mail user tries to send? If not, would it be possible to add such feature? Regards, -- "Warning: Dates in Calendar are closer than they appear."
