we are having troubles with Spamhaus.
One of the motives they block us one of our blocks of 256 IPs is:
"190.183.63.103/32
Removed gigared.com.ar SR02
2008-12-01 03:28:01
SBL65412 mule spam dropbox"
What is "mule spam dropbox"?.
That IP is the main of a hosting server (100+ domains) from a client.
Someone brought to my attention something very interesting today: GNAX has a significant number of SpamHaus listings, many over a year old. There are also multiple ROSKO listings.

I have always heard generally good things about GNAX, so I wonder why they are dropping the ball here.
We just got a new windows server and didnt put an antivirus or configure windows firewall, while setting up for the 1st two months.
our IP address has been blocked twice now by this company, on saturday, released on monday and blocked again on tuesday.
[url]
we applied to have it removed which they did and blocked it again, they claim we were spamming, which we never did
We have installed mcafee and setup windows firewall.
trying to get a removal from them, how quick was the request usually processed, or even get any type of response from them?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a server which is currently listed under SBL's list(SpamHaus) coz of my DC was having spam issues or something like that. It's a Class 1 block which is kinda serious.
Currently that server is unable to send or receive mails from most places which uses SBL as a spam filter.
My question is if there's a way to re-route the emails from this server to another server which is not listed under the SBL? If it's possible to do so, could you please help tell me what I should do?
I was wondering if I could change the MX records to another server so that everything gets re-routed to another server while the problem with SBL is being resolved.
I've just got a fully manage VPS, unfortunately the newly aquired IP was listed in PBL (policy Block List)by spamhaus which is a nonspam source. I've got the ip de-listed but apparently some servers are still rejecting emails coming from this IP. It have been almost 48 hrs. Question is:
1) How can the IP got listed when it's never been use? How can we check IP is indeed a 'fresh' or pr-owned by spammers?
2) What is the possibility of the IP being blacklisted by these servers forever? How long does it normally take for it to be totally in the clear?
3) What are the preventive measures that can avoid IP being listed?
4) Is configuring Reverse DNS PTR a standard procedure in server set-up and could missing that config be the main reason the IP got tagged?

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?
One of our customers on a VPS downloaded this file and then ran it perl bnc.txt
I am wondering if its a spammer using the script to send spam.
It seems to be written in Portuguese, I have translated parts of it and it reminds of of the typical spam subjects you find now-a-days.
We are having some big issues with a spam bot on the server. We can remove the bot but could you please explain, IN DETAIL , how to configure the NAT to prevent outbound port 25 connections to the internet except from our real mail servers on with windows server 2003. Currently, the only firewall on this system is the standard windows one.
View 1 Replies View Relatedthrough some accounts on the server and the amount of spam in their mail queue is really frustrating. I had to set admin accounts for each site I run and the spammers have discovered them, so I am looking for a ssh command where I can just easily clean all the spam out. I tried cat /dev/null > /var/mail/"the username" but that didn't work.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSomeone on our server is sending spam mails, he does not know about it.
Most spam are sent to aol.com,gmail.com and cs.com
I'm getting loads of these Mail delivery failed mails:
This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.
A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:
The e-mails come from the system/user account e-mail of the domain (usernameDA@domain.com), where DA is Direct Admin.
I think it sent more then 30.000 mails in 2 days.
Also received a complaint from aol.
How can I trace this? What can I do to fix it?
Is it a some crappy written php script?
He said he updated joomla, wiki and smf forum.
I use cpanel license, i enable phpsux on my server, but user can send email without smtp address.
how can pervent user for send mail without smtp?
I just got this from EasyAntiSpam. Unless my address is harvested from the HostingCon database, I've certainly never been in touch with them. Disappointing either way.

I have a linux server with shared hosting ,now for couple of days one of my client face problem regarding spam with gmail,I have also cross-checked all the mandatory records,and we have already create MX,SPF & reverse dns record with domain keys for that domain.
View 5 Replies View Relatedim getting 50 and more spam mails each day, how do i secure my vps to stop 99% of the spam from coming in as i understand theres no way to completely block spams.
Im using directadmin control panel and enabled SpamAssasain but its not much of use even when i apply strict options on it.
I used to have a reseller account and have shifted everything to a dedicated server. I now find that a couple of clients are getting lots of spam when they didn't before.
It seems that the servers used by the reseller account had some level of basic spam filtering installed; my provider suggested I look for a filtering program to install on my server.
There are, of course, dozens of them, so I wondered if anyone has any experience - enough, perhaps, to make a recommendation.
I'm having difficulties with a whm running on centos dedicated server. The problem is that we receive too much of spam and junk emails. by too much I mean 2000 bulks per week. It's killing us.
how I can stop it.
I am facing some major SPAM problems.
I am a web host from the city of Kolkata, India.
Almost 95% of my clients are from my city - others are also known to me. I know many of them face to face - there are very little chances that any of them are SPAMMER.
Still my server IP is blacklisted - several times in last 1 year - I changed my datacenter - but the problem still persists.
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 have problems with my mail server.
I have installed cPanel WHM.
In my server there are many accounts and now I discovered that not all accounts, when they send email to hotmail and yahoo, go to spam.
It does not happen in all accounts.
How can I bypass the filter of yahoo and hotmail for all domains configured on my server?
i have this in my account:
/cgi-bin/check.cgi
/cgi-bin/gz.cgi
/cgi-bin/km.cgi
/cgi-bin/hnc.cgi
/cgi-bin/ypej.cgi
some script that sends (a LOT)spam, and dissapears
Does anyone know what that was?
i cannot find anything about it
i disabled cgi scripting,
I guess the economy must be hitting them hard. They have resorted to unsolicited commercial email, everyone's favourite.

I hope this finds you well. I am currently attempting to reach out to companies that offer web hosting services and either use, or have used, Parallels Plesk Panel as a part of the service offerings. The goal is to re-introduce Parallels Plesk Panel and hopefully revive any previously established relationships. This includes looking into why the Parallels Plesk Panel business slowed, or stopped completely, within your organization.
We are working very hard to establish a reputable channel within the hosting marketplace. In order to do so we need to look at what is currently working and what is not currently working. The best place to begin this research is with companies that have used us, but now don't really offer our products. With that said, are you available for a phone call to discuss?
My goal is to understand:
* Do you currently offer control panels, if so, is Parallels Plesk Panel a part of your offerings?
* If you are no longer offering (pushing) Parallels Plesk Panel, is there a reason?
* Would you be receptive to some sort of "trial" program to re-introduce you to Parallels Plesk Panel and our Service Provider Partnership Program?
I look forward to your response and hopefully speaking with you soon.

I was running an IP check on spamcannibal.org
It shows blocked because of this reason:
no reverse DNS, MX host should have rDNS - RFC1912 2.1
Is it actually possible to setup some kind of generic ptr records on IPs, even if they are assigned to dedicated server clients?
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?
I have a server that is sending spam, but I can not know who sent because the server not has installed suphp.
There is another option to see who sends spam?
