My server is sending all emails via exim smarthost to other specialised exim server (both cPanel). How may I limit customers from sending out SPAM ? Mean to scan outgoing emails and delete/store in some folder which ones identified as SPAM. Preferrably the scan part to be on exim email proxy cause it is much idle.
GoDaddy says: "You have reached your current SMTP relay limit of 1000 per day on the following hosting account" But they assigned a limit of 1,000 -- and i don't use SMTP relay at all. I have set up my active email accounts to use Google SMTP. When I tell GoDaddy about this, they tell me it is my responsibility. So what do i do?
In the documentation for Plesk 12 there is no information on what is happening if the limit for outgoing mail is reached.
If there is a limit of 50 mails per hour on a mail account and someone is trying to send 60 mails in one hour, what does happen with these 10 mails over limit?
1. Are there send 50 mails and the rest of 10 mails are deleted and will never be sent? 2. Or are these 10 mails sent later? 3. Can there be sent more mails in the next hour or is the mail account now blocked for sending mails?
Warning: Unknown(): write failed: No space left on device (28) in Unknown on line 0
Warning: Unknown(): Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in Unknown on line 0 I am getting this error on my site. I have googled this error and it is telling me it relates to a /temp/ folder of some form. I am currently on a hosting plan (not a dedicated server). Is there ANY way I can access to fix this problem either from my control panel or by code?
I just discovered there is seperate error log for php-fpm and since only 1 site is running fully nginx, the log is full with this error:
"NOTICE: PHP message: PHP Warning: Unknown: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/var/lib/php/session) in Unknown on line 0"
problem with incoming spam to my server. Causing high load that eventually take down the server.
Since I don't use the server for my mail (I use Gmail), can anyone let me know the easiest way to stop/block all incoming mails to the server? I still need outgoing mail, though. Some of my PHP forms need it.
Right now, I stopped Exim to save the server (if it runs, load can get to 900+).
on whm/Cpanel I have set max emails per hour limit to 250 for the server, but when a user tries to send thousands of emails, the server still accepts them (they are placed in queue but not delivered) and load spikes.
I am wondering is there is a way for exim to reject those emails when the user attempts to do so.
There's a bot that's taken to trolling my site. I'd like to block it.
1) Is there a relatively straightforward way through cPanel that I can do this?
2) Failing that, via adding some code to a page on my site (I've seen some code when googling on the 'net, but I'm new to this, and don't even know where such code belongs. As far as I can tell, depending on the bot, sometimes severe measures may need to be taken. However, from my limited reading, it seems that appropriate editing of .htaccess might do it.)
Is there any way to totally block php shell scripts on users accounts, i don't mean like the java shell in cPanel i mean a php shell script like the kind frequently used by hackers...
I have a SSG-320M I manage, and would like to know if I can block traffic to our web servers based on the user agent hitting us? I know user agents that keep using more and more IP addresses to crawl us, one already taking up some 30 or 40 addresses under my policies and its a pain to identify these by hand and keep updating the firewall every few days to add new IP addresses for them. Is there somewhere I can add part of the user agent I do not want to ever see again? Right now I do this by having a policy at the top saying "BadBotsGroup" is denied. But I want to deny anyone with a user agent "OneUserAgent" or "SecondUserAgent"
It seems so important and simple, but I do not see anything about being able to do this. Thanks for help and pointers. Right now we have special code at the top of our sites that blocks these bots, but I would much rather do it in one location at the firewall.
how can i block this user agent through mod_rewrite "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1)" and is this agent will affect all the IE 6 users ? and whats is the difference between the one above and this one : Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; InfoPath.2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.04506.30)?
Very often now and then, i have 2 issue coming up:
1. Unroutable E-mail bounce back message The message looks like this: you@gmail.com unrouteable mail domain "gmail.com"
I have already set "unlimited" mail per hour on cpanel itself and it should not be giving me this message but it does again.
2. Exim failed by itself (SMTP Error while sending out e-mail) I am using Outlook Express & Thunderbird, sometimes while sending out the e-mail, it gives SMTP error popup message.The e-mail was never sent out. I can only solve this problem by restarting exim manually.
What are the permenant solution for both of this issue?
How do you limit the amount of processes a user can create? I'm running suEXEc mode and I want to limit the processes to 5 to prevent abuse and resource drainage.
Is it possible (or if anyone has) to have ability or some script that will integrate into apache or something and will tell limit CPU load per directory (hence user)?
Eg: I don't want one high traffic user using like 2% load.
We're on a VPS and lately we've been getting a few 'exim has failed...A restart was attempted automagicly.' messages. Support indicated that we're hitting our limits and suggested that we move to a bigger package or remove accounts. I only have 2 active sites on this account. We're new at this and don't know if there's anything else we can do.
Does anyone know what could be causing exim to fail?
I'm having an issue with email generated from a website contact form. The email is being sent from the website via php. The issue is that the email address that it is being sent to is a domain/website that is also on cpanel. It is trying to deliver it to a local account, but the email is acutally on a third party system outside of cpanel. Does anyone know anyway for exim to not try and deliver locally?
We have a questions for everyone and any help would be greatfull, we are looking to limit disk inodes on a per user basis or server wide. we would like to know if anyone ca referance us as to how this is accomplished.
