i found something to use procmail, but i dont know how to bite it
how to do that? would be nice if you drop some links or tutorials..
always i hate mail servers!
I had this spam problem on my server. Some perl scripts uploaded to /tmp folder were generating lots of spam email. We stopped sendmail, cleaned the server from all the bugs and erased all the messages in /var/spool/mqueue. Yet when I start sendmail again I begin receiving lots of autoresponders and returned emails. Where are those incoming mails located? In which queue?

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+).
We switched to a 3rd party mail server provided by our local ISP, however when attempts are made to mail anyone on our domain a message similar to one of the following is received:

Hi. This is the qmail-send program.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
<my_email_address@our_domain>:
70.43.63.21 does not like recipient.
Remote host said: 550 5.7.1 <my_email_address@our_domain>... Relaying denied Giving up on 70.43.63.21.
I've made sure the MX records are in place on our nameserver, and I've verified this with DNS Stuff.
I seem to think the problem is on our ISP's end.
I wonder if there is any chance to change the domain that is being shown as the incoming/outgoing mail server to users of the Plesk Panel, when clicking on the "Info"-Icon near an e-mail-account in the mail list (see screenshot).
We only have a SSL certificate for one domain and want our customers to use this domain in their mail client settings, so that the client trusts the domain.
We use some spam blockers that come with cPanel but sometimes it feels like it isn't enough to block out all spam coming in and going out of the server. Anyone here have any experience with any other third party softwares that may be able to stop emails in its track basing it on the content of the email itself?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm having issue with mails stuck in queue and take days to send out. I'm looking for a command or script solution that puts a priority to particular message or domain so their message can be sent first.
Mail mta is Postfix running on BSD system.
I can't send any mail from the server. I don't get any log information about errors. Postfix is installed on opensuse 13.1.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am managing few virtual domains on a server.
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 issue started ince a couple of months seemed to increase with update to Plesk 12.0 (though I can't guarantee it).I am using Centos 6.5, all updated. What happens is that postfix usage starts to increase without any apparent reason (during week-ends for example). Then postfix is not responding anymore.

My current URLs look like index.php?order=key, where 'key' is of course the key. I'd like to transform my URLs to a pattern that doesn't currently have any association with the 'key' used in the URL. I'm using the RewriteMap directive to map keys to new values. If I can take the following example URL:-
I'd like to transform index.php?order=hc to /homecare, so I've mapped the key with the value in the two column syntax required within a text file and linked to it.
My initial assumption was that I could then just RewriteRule the variable, but from what I've read I need to use RewriteCond to capture the query_string first.
So, this is my complete ruleset so far:-
RewriteEngine on
RewriteMap rewritemap txt:C:/WINDOWS/system32/inetsrv/rewrite/rewritemap.txt
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING}
RewriteRule ^(.*) test.asp?order=${rewritemap:$1}
I'm pretty sure my RewriteRule is correct, but of course there is no rule currently attached to RewriteCond, since I'm unsure what I need to put there.
Would you guys be kind enough to help me out a bit?
