Hello everyone, I have a Sims 1.8b9d14 running with Relay for
Clients only checked. A couple of days, someone sent out a lot of
spam through my server. Here's a snippet from the log:
06:37:45 3 SMTP-658(User) Failed to verify. Real address is
[89.38.185.95:3052]
06:38:05 2 SMTP-658([89.38.185.95]) {S.0005385044} received, 7094 bytes
06:38:05 2 SYSTEM [S.0005385044] S.0005385044 50+0
From:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
06:38:05 3 SMTP [S.0005385044] dequeueing
Any thoughts on how this could have happened? Thanks, Anibal Escobar
If you are not logging any deeper than that, any response is
theoretical and unverifiable.
The most likely thing is that you have a compromised user account,
and the spammer has used POP-before-SMTP or SMTP AUTH with some
user's weak password.
