We have see a interesting system from one competitors:
any user that have a email account receive any 24 hours a email report of all spam receive (as html attach) In this html file there is list and flag and user can be indicate that is NOT a spam and click submit into html file that send information to mail server
I know this topic has come up numerous times , could someone point me to the thread that had a really great list. I know I have seen it before just can't seem to find the thread.
how I can see all the mail's adress sended by a site that I have in a vps hosting; the site is in php and run on apache; panel is directadmin; is there some log file? or is necessary some software?

I see in the plesk documentation that the screen to enable SPAM filtering for an individual there is an option to "Move spam to the Spam folder". I don't see that option so I am wondering if it is only available on some versions of Plesk, or in combination with certain mail servers. How to make that option available?
We're using whm/cpanel and we're always up to date with the latest upgrades (with all our scripts).
2 weeks ago, we receive a notification from SpamCop saying that our server was sending out spam. We verified everything and found nothing. 2 days ago, same story.
We tried looking at our logs and found nothing. Does this mean that there's a security hole somewhere? How can we find out from where the spammer is sending his viagra emails from ? We do not want to be permanently banned because of a spammer.
I noticed that reported server usage from Plesk is 2.x - 3.x, so I went to mail queue (in Plesk) and saw lots of mails that shouldn't be there.
There were several senders under the domain dedibox.fr sendint LOTS of emails to lots of addresses in the same email. There shouldn't be a sender @dedibox.fr, as that domain isn't hosted on our dedicated server.
I know little about Linux administration... I tried going to the /var/log folder and grep for dedibox on the messages and maillog files, but nothing found...
How can I know if someone connected to our server as an user or something like that?
So it looks like this is an e-mail being sent to bot@dole.ie
However when I look at my mail I can see the mails are being sent FROM bot@dole.ie. For example:
Sorry, but Lyris ListManager did not find your email address -] "bot@dole.ie"
listed as a member of techno-l.
Only members of techno-l are allowed to contribute messages.
Because Lyris ListManager could not confirm that you are a member of techno-l, your message was not accepted.

There are lots of bounced e-mails being sent back to me.
Does anyone know how I can check to see what's spending the spam or how to stop it?
For some days now, the server`s been sending spam through our main domain, under different email aliases that don`t even exist : fdg@domain.com , gfhh@domain.com ( email aliases that don`t even exist )( I changed my domain with domain.com for privacy measures )....so on.. I tried to check what is sending out emails. Any idea how to track/check/scan for what is sending out emails?
I've gotten several complaints through spamcop in the last several weeks. The headers show the spam mails coming from nobody@ my server and they show the originating IP as my server. The datacenter is threatening to shut me down.
I've looked in the mail queue and haven't found any of the sent spam mails in there (or bounces from them). I am getting bounces into horde that were apparently sent from me.
How do I find which client is sending them? Or maybe the server has been hacked and spam software uploaded somewhere?
I recently got a dedicated server with The Planet. WHM/Cpanel...
I am a designer and starting to host my clients. So far i've setup about 5 different clients and everyone says the same thing...
Since they've switched to my server the email spam they get to their emails is out of control.
I asked The Planet for help and they said to make sure some spam filters were automatically checked for each account in my WHM and in their unique cpanel accounts, and they are but it hasnt helped. They also have a spam service but i do not want to pay any more per month than i already am.
What would cause this to be so bad versus my clients old servers?
Secondly, what open source solutions are there out there and who is the best to hire to install them on my server?
I currently have a dedicated server, Linux, with 1 website on it that is sending spam.
At first I thought it was someone spoofing my email address, however when I check my servers Email queue I can see the spam emails in there being sent.
My problem is that I have contacted my server provider and support for the scripts I'm running and everyone is saying its the other persons fault. My server provider is saying everything is up to date and it must be a software exploit on one of my scripts, and the support team from my software is saying its not them that its the server.
Can you control SPAM on a server ? I've got this email account that all receives is SPAM, nothing else. I'd like to eliminate this so it doesn't get any more SPAM.
I received many email spam recently, with the sender address from my own server. Eg.
my domain = www.shashinki.com email spam that I received = shop@shashinki.com which is being sent to my own email address of shop@shashinki.com. Yes, the sender is my own email address account.
I checked using gmail and the sender is from my own server IP address and the sender's email address seems to be valid and is from my own email account.
I have changed the password of my email address, added SPF to my email system...etc. I have done all that I can think of, but I still get the same spam emails.
What can I do and what should I do? I got really tired of this and I am worried that my server is being used to send spams to others.
My server is with LayeredTech, unmanaged server, so I dont have a manager to help me.
Hope to get some insight and help from sifus here...
what experiences other people have been having with loads on their servers from spam. I was doing some profiling of our machines and noticed that load actually a fairly significant part of the load on our servers, and its way worse than it used to be.
Looking at the numbers I suspect we could comfortably have way more accounts per server if we could deal with spam better.
We recently had a problem with a mail spammer. He sent over 90,000 emails and had 20,000 in the queue. Is there anyway to possibly stop this as it was really lagging the server bad. So bad the softlayer took it offline for a while...
got a 2nd notice from my ISP complaining that spams are being sent from my dedicated box. Since the first notice, I had stopped all the mail-related services (sendmail, mailman, courier-imap), which means no emails will be sent out from this box. However, I still received the 2nd notice for spamming.
own dedicated box running CentOS 4.2 with Plesk 8.1. 1 site hosted on it.
concerns are
1. Is my box hacked in and hijacked to send out spam? If yes, how can I check for system integrity?
2. Based on the service status dump, is there something else I need to do in the meantime to stop the box from sending out spam?
3. If there's someone who willing to help out, I'm willing to pay a small amount (~$50, sorry I'm broke!) to fix the server and just kinda help me through the process.
