Marlon We use FRANK MUTO. Ever since we made the change, email has been a nice 5 letter word, instead of a repetitive prefixed 4 letter one :-). And our customers really like the change. Mostly for the full featured back end and their own spam control. Not to mention, 90% of that bandwidth usage never makes it to the gateway or our pocketbook, or latency. Since it is a paid service, I usually refer the 'extras' kids to Gmail. Have a good weekend fellow wisps, I'm outta here.

Schafer Sent: Friday, June 26, 2009 8:33 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: [WISPA] OT, pesky email stuff Hi All, What are you guys doing for email these days? I LOVE my setup for it's reliability, ease of use etc. Hacked customer accounts and virus's are killing me though. We don't catch things until 100,000s of messages go out and we get black listed. This has now happened 3 or 4 times in the last couple of years. My server admins aren't coming up with a solution to this other than to limit cc's to 25 per message. We did that once before and my phone rang off the hook because people can't send jokes to their friends..... The other thing that makes it hard is that the log files that I get (up to 40 megs per day!) don't list the authenticated sender, only the reply address. So I see tens of thousands of messages from a user that's not even mine (faked info). sigh We use Courier MTA. My thought is to set the server to allow a max of 1000 messages per day per user. And to somehow make the log file ONLY send me the number of messages received per a user, and the number sent, user name and ip addy of all those sending. Twice now I've asked about that idea and gotten no response from the server admins. Suggestions? laters, marlon ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- WISPA Wants You!
