Well i generally mail newsletter and offers to my subscribers in different domain using 6 IPs in my domain but due to slowness and huge spam receiving from the sender domains i m now deciding to increase my IP to 20. In which i will be using 10 each IPs distributed in two domains.
Will it be good by doing this ? Will it stop the rate of spam? Will the domains where i m sending the mails block me ?
Is there any way to stop spammers from spoofing my address? I've had issues ever since I started this server with getting bounced spam where the "From:" field was (jibberish)@mydomain.com which was annoying but not that constant.
I came online this morning to check my mail and had over 1200 e-mails and all of them have "online@wellsfargo.com" as the "From:" address, but the message-ID has my domain name in it..

There's gotta be some way (make that 1204.. just got 4 more bounces) to block spammers from doing this. Could someone help a newbie out?
I've been getting a lot of "Undeliverable" emails sent to my email address. On these messages, the spammer is using my email on the "From" part of the email...... So whenever he sends out spam, the person(s) getting spammed think it's from me..... And the thousands of Undeliverable email error messages are also sent to me.
Is there a way to stop this from Happening? ....... Besides changing my email address?
I would like someone more knowledgeable perhaps explain this.
I have an email address on my own domain that has existed for about 4 years now. About 5 weeks ago, the VPS it were on died and so the email went unresolved for about 3 weeks. I then transferred to a new VPS, and set up the email. About a week later, I moved again.
I left up the 2nd VPS for DNS propagation to take place. What interest me is that the server is still running about a week later, and the email server is still getting spam messages directed to it. So somehow, the spams are being send to the old IP, with a valid recipient, even when the most stubborn of DNS cache should have updated by now.
So it seems (some) spammers are just capturing email address and the IP for the server, storing it, and mass spam straight to those IPs instead of resolving the server.
some one is sending spam via my server, my server is a linux CentOS with Cpanel and the mail server has got problems . in Mail Queue Manager there are more than 1000Messages and new email are just waiting there to be sent or received.
I have checked /var/log/maillog and there is just some login and logout information of my users, and when checking /var/log/messages there are some messages of IPs that are connected and regular informations.
How I can trace which account is sending spams? and how can I stop spamming? it's about 2 days that my mail server situation is terrible!

For past one week, my wordpress based blog is just dead, becasue of heavy trackback/pingback spamming(500 a minute). I've tried various plugins, but to no avail.
In addition to stop spammers before generating PHP load, I've tried all possible HTACCESS rules, but to no avail. I truly sure, I've done something wrong.
May I request the experts here to advice on how to stop this ongoing spamming?
I found out why my website has been down for 8 days. I finally contacted someone at UWH and found that someone jacked my domain and spammed. So they suspended my account.
What really pisses me off is David Turner over at UWH has accused me of sending the spam. Even after I told him is was not me, he still accused me of sending the spam and threatened to bill my credit card for the spam fees.
I can tell you the $hit will hit the fan if he charges me anything and he had better stop accusing me of sending spam and appologize and it would be nice if THEY WOULD STOP THE SUSPENSION OF MY ACCOUNT!
Recently I have seen lots of email activity. Most of the emails are being sent with php scripts which are run under apache. what I want is to catch the culprit domain
so the sender's return path in most cases is root@xxxxx as apache is running under root user.
The server runs plesk admin panel.
I know I can always inspect messages in the queue, qmhandle is good as well to do so. but is there any better way.
e.g. is there a way that instead of emails sent from php scripts with apache user domain name in return path and not root@server etc.
any tools to analyze this activity and then take necessary actions.
My website suspended by a hosting service provider they told me that I try to send some spamming emails, the details about my website it's very small with 282 users (before suspended) I used phpBB version 2 and send news to users with phpBB send mail function. Frequency of sending is not more than 2 times a month and not every month.
I've already contacted the hosting provider they didn't help anything just say "Hold on" for 1 day a ago.
my DNS stop resolving, once a day i need to restart the service in cpanel/whm , what can be done to prevent that ?
its a fresh vps only cpanel is there and 2 domains with no pages just a simple under costruction index page . in CSF i have a Your Score: 106/112 in security , it firewalled and hardened
right now is using 299 of ram out of 512 burstable to 768
I was wondering if anyone has any methods to stop spammers? Currently i am keeping watch on the mail queue and making sure nothing unsual. I have in WHM configuration setup to not allow more 200 mail messages per account per hour but for some reason it will hit thousands. WHMCS does seem to suspend them automatically or maybe its because of WHM BUT only when its too late.
Have a persistent spammer who kept emailing my clients, even non existent domain accounts and getting the bounced emails to be send to a particular yahoo address. I tried to block in all ways but can't seem to stop him. His spams are from all over the world. Any suggestions?
By mistake instead of using gunzip file name on my friend's vps, I had used gunzip -c filename
and its taking hell a lot of time to unzip it, I have no clue on how to stop this and I am scared if I close ssh client, it might be still adding load to the server ..
I am unzipping an 4.5mb file, which on un-compression must be around 14.5mb ..
for the past 10 mins its still unzipping and not sure how long it will go on.. unless I stop it..
a site i manage for a client is being hacked every couple of days, its not the actual site but the hosts server thats getting attacked, all sites on that server, well actually all thier servers.
They have made no attempt to sort this problem, i report it they look at the site and say "site loads fine for us" which it does.
All index files are having a base64 encode line written after the <body> tag, this adds hundreds of spam links which are hidden with display:none; they also add .html to application types in htaccess for php to run in these files too.
Problem is, i am moving the site to another host but cannot change the nameservers to the new host's untill the client returns from a holiday, so i must keep the site up on the insecure host for now.
I am removing the spam code almost daily, is there anyway i can stop this attack happening for the time being, the host does nothing.
Is there a way to stop hotlinking? I have a client who has a blog. They have post pics of tattoos. Now there are at least 50 tattoo forums, blogs and other sites hotling to the pics. Now his bandwidth usage has skyrocketed. So enable hotlink protection in his cPanel. Just did a redirect to my main hosting site with a nice please stop hotlink image. Now I see all this in my logs. So I then made a 150 x 9000 clear BG gf with the text at the top please stop hotlinking.
My questions is there any way to stop it. If not should I just make a 1x1 clear gif to redirect to? Also is there a way to not have this traffic show in my log files?
