Hi Rafael,

 

quick thoughts. Do you have

 

smtpd_recipient_restrictions = reject_unauth_destination

 

in your main.cf?

 

The request should be rejected and not be queued.

 

Greets,

Betreff: SPAM attack from bounce techniques

 

Hi there,

 

I've noticed that one of our servers is receiving a huge amount of unauthorized 
requests.

 

User connects to our server and tries to send an email to any destination. Our 
servers denies the message because user is not authenticated. Then, a bounce is 
generated to the source address, which was fake and turns to be the final 
destination, so at the end, the email is actually sent as a bounce, 
proliferating lots of spam.

 

Is there a way to avoid this?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

BR,

 

Rafael
