I've been running a modified version of Michail Altair Valasek's FLAVS for a year (the link to the original version can be found on the XMail home page). It's a VBS script that rejects messages with executable attachments and calls F-PROT antivirus (DOS) for those with a .ZIP attachment. I've set it up as a post-data filter (issues a 550 error after the final crlf dot crlf).

However, I think you will run into = more trouble if you could actually do that. XMail needs to call itself the = name the server's IP will reverse dns lookup to. That is the important check done by those somewhat outdated spam filtering dns checks. I have never thought those dns checks worked effectively for filtering spam, but I = know that some ISPs still try to do filtering using dns checks. The old = school dns checks tried to prevent email address spoofing, but largely failed = to do that. SPF is a solution that actually accomplishes what that old school = dns check filters tried to do. As a function of time, ISPs will drop many = of the outdated dns checks in favor of newer tech like SPF. The bottom line is that since many ISPs host several domains on a server = and often a single IP address, you cannot be strict about the email = address's domain name vs the hostname of the server. All the dns check can really = do is check to see that the server's hostname matches the hostname shown on = a reverse dns lookup of the server's IP address. For example, an email = server may say it is mail.domain.com. Assuming the server's IP was 1.2.3.4, = then 1.2.3.4 would need to have reverse dns resolving to mail.domain.com in = order to be legit. The email address should be a nonissue as long as the = server's hostname matches its IP's reverse dns lookup. If an additional dns = check does force the server hostname (as given by the email server software) = to match the domain name part of the email address, then there will be = sizeable false positives resulting in countless dropped (but legitimate) emails, because that would basically be mutually exclusive with the first dns = check if the ISP hosted more than one domain per server. Anyway, the way = XMail handles this is fine as long as ISPs are not being stupid about their = dns checks on inbound email. When an ISP does setup something stupid that = ends up blocking email from big hosters, the ISP's customers let them know = about it pretty quickly. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] = On Behalf Of Michael Lugassy Sent: Sunday, September 12, 2004 2:21 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [xmail] Re: Problem with multiple instances Davide hi, > Why this?

[xmail] multiple domains on server?
Hi there,
I have xmail set up on my mail.domain1.com
I also have mail.domain2.com and mail.domain3.com on the same server.
When sending mails through mail.domain2/3.com I don't want any note of
mail.domain1.com on the email headers. However, since mail.domain1.com is what set up
on server.tab, every outgoing mail (on either IP) has one or more lines from
domain1.com ("Received from mail.domain1.com", "On Behalf of mail.domain1.com", etc.)
Is there a way to completely SEPERATE between 3 domains?
Thanks,
Michael.

Tracy, I did get the final email, so in my case it's open relay. Moreover, I personally believe that having then email received (but not delieverd), is as bad.

Davide, I have a user with a "*" alias.

[xmail] Re: Xmail and Abuse.net
Looks like we're getting close. The messages ARE delivered correctly, but not in a timely fashion. It takes about 20 minutes to deliver messages to external domains and 0 seconds to deliver them to local users. Is there a timeout or delay option I have set up wrong somewhere?

I want the server to allow sending to external email accounts - but, if the server is blocking all external smtp sending, who should have smtp permission? and which? Overall, the server is restricted to ALL external users sending, except those originating from my webserver and those who are specified as "redirects".

[xmail] Xmail and Abuse.net
Hi there, I'm trying to restrict my xmail 1.16 server to allow SENDING only on very specific issues: 1) e-mails originating from my web server (a set of 8 IPs). I basically use a number of ASP pages that send out mail to outside cusomers using CDONTS. If the e-mails were created and sent from the server, they should be allowed. I tried adding the IP numbers to SMTPAUTH.tab, but that has failed abuse.net relay test. 2) e-mails sent to "reffer-only" accounts on my server. For example: I have a local user : [EMAIL PROTECTED] that has 2 refferes to external domains (that are not hosted on my server) - I want emails sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to be reffered correctly - currently it stay on the server. I tried adding my postmaster account "MR" priviliages, but it didn't work. Any help on how to achive both tasks AND survive the abuse.net relay test would be great!
