More out of curiosity than anything, I've been wondering if there are options for filtering outgoing SMTP. Not necessarily every single message, but a firewall-level tool to watch for a sudden burst in SMTP from one host, run some of the messages through SpamAssassin or the like, and trigger an alert if they rank highly for spam.
It seems like it's technologically possible, but I've never heard of anyone doing it, nor seen an actual implementation of it. Has anyone heard of this type of thing?
i just have a vps with plesk installed, since this is my first time have a vps, i have run into some problem,
so here is the problem.
i want to use pop3 account directly from my outlook, but i don't know how to fill the smtp outgoing address, which mean, i can logged in to account by i cannot send the mail via outlook, but if i'm using the webmail provided by plesk it's just run fine.
here is my dns config, please take a look: note: domain name changed to domain(dot)com because newbie cannot post url link in this forum...
Host | Record Type | Value -------------------------------------------- 123(dot)123(dot)123(dot)123 / 24 | PTR | domain(dot)com
ftp(dot)domain(dot)com | CNAME | domain(dot)com
mail(dot)domain(dot)com | A | 123(dot)123(dot)123(dot)123
ns(dot)domain(dot)com | A | 123(dot)123(dot)123(dot)123
I have created virtual SMTP server in IIS6 and while send e-mail from the same server using SMTP IP address, the e-mail do not reach recipient, all sent e-mails goes directlly to DROP folder and stay it that folder.
I have checked event viewer, no error, also used telnet to create and send e-mail, no error.
I have a customer that wants to send emails using Exim and SMTP (using outlook), withouth authentication. Now.. the big question is ... how can I configure the Exim server to work withouth any authentication?
I know the risks of this withouth any authentication, but is my customer's server and he want to work in this way.
He is also asking if he is able to send emails withouth authentication using SMTP for certain IP addresses.. is that possible? Can be done for only 1 domain, or for the entire server?
I have just install on a new server plesk 12.0.18 Update #7 on centos 6.5 final.Added new hosting for the domain on a dedicated IP. All works fine (website, incoming mails etc) apart from outgoing mails.Both webmail (roundcube) and other mail software (outlook 2010, 2013 , android phone etc) outgoing mail i can't get to work.
I have attached screen from webmail with SMTP error (250) : Authentication failed..With Outlook it will allow me to set up account, test account setting... it say all all complete if i don't set secure connection (SSL)/requires authentication. But when you try sending mails you get the error: Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.
Subject:test Sent:16/07/2014 15:13
The following recipient(s) cannot be reached:
'x@xxx.com' on 16/07/2014 15:13 Server error: '554 5.7.1 <x@xxx.com>: Relay access denied'
When you set the outgoing requires authentication/ advance SSL you get:Send test e-mail message: None of the authentication methods supported by this client are supported by your server.I have tried changing to some outgoing ports to no avail.
After migrating our existing client base from legacy Plesk 9.x servers and Expand to PPA, clients phoned in with mail sending problems. These clients are using submission port 587 because their ISPs intercept port 25.
Existing client, Outlook error message:
"None of the authentication methods supported by this client are supported by your server"
Testing with Thunderbird, error message:
"An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. Please verify that your email address is correct in your Mail preferences and try again."
It seems a "fresh" PPA requires STARTTLS on e-mail clients. It is furthermore confirmed that Thunderbird detects the e-mail server settings as dependant on TLS.
The problem is that TLS doesn't seem to work properly by default.
In order to preserve our existing customer base, we follow: [URL] ....
Bottom line, in your /etc/postfix/master.cf, change the line that says "submission" from this:
This is just a quick fix to get you going and stop the phones from ringing. Ideally we would like to re-enable TLS and have information as to why it is not working.
I getting this error when our clients are sending mail from outlook but they are able to send mail from webmail.
we are using exim mail server and whm . i can't understand where is problem , anybody can help me ?

Just joined and this is my first post. I wanted to give a reveiw of [url]from both a web-hosting and file-hosting provider.
I've been with urldownload.com for about 4 years and the service has been nothing short of excellent. What I love most about urldownload.com is that they don't throttle BW or start choking your service when you start really getting a lot of hits or x-fer rates.
I've been with other hosts and it never fails...they usually get you in on what seems to be an unbelievable service and a dirt-cheap price, but once you really start using them a lot the problems arise (host unavailable, BW exceeded, etc.) For reference here are my stats: [url]
Of the 4 years with urldownload.com I've experienced 4 outages lasting on average 20mins max (and the 20min one was for a hot-swap of a bad drive in their RAID -5 array), oh that make me feel so good that they use RAID 5! They also respond very quickly to tickets...but honestly, 4 times in 4 years...I don't even think about outages.
I highly recommend them. For reference my site, which is running on their servers is: [url]
My university runs a website to help students find rentals in the general area. We recently ran into some billing issues with our current VPS host, and we're trying to move to a new VPS.
I have some experience finding cheap VPSs (I use Slicehost for a 256MB RAM VPS), but this one has different requirements. Our current VPS provides us with 1GB of RAM, and we don't want to go below this. Also, the VPS we use gives great tech support to my boss (who only knows the very basics about technology). We'd also strongly prefer a VPS that comes with Cpanel.
Does anyone have any recommendations for other VPSs that meet these requirements?
2 x Xeon 2.8Ghz // good Core 2 Duo/Quad 2GB RAM // 3-4 150 GB SATA
And connection... normally we use around 15 Mb at peaks/day but recently we got attacking by DDoS above 100 Mb.
We need some true protection or resisting on port 1 Gbps before attackers got bored. No protection via null routing (like 'the planet' like to 'protect').
staminus.net want 800$ for this/month. We can afford around 500$/month.
If a Plesk admin wants to install Wordpress, the installation always fails.
1. Select Server Management -> Tools & Settings -> Security -> Security Policy 2. Select (*) Very strong 3. Confirm with OK 4. Select Hosting Services -> Domains 2. Select Domain 3. Select Button Install Apps 4. Select Wordpress in All Available Applications 5. Select Install 6. Error message is shown! Error: Installation of WordPress at http://lyl-canbys.de/blog failed. Your password is not complex enough. According to the server policy, the minimal password strength is Very strong. To improve the password strength, use numbers, upper and lower-case characters, and special characters like !,@,#,$,%,^,&,*,?,_,~
But the password was complex enough. with 20 numbers+charcters+special chars!
I i lower Plesks Security Policy to (*) Strong, the Wordpress installation works. But lowering Security with password length 8 is not desireable.
we the mail send through email client, the receiver checks local ISP's ip address or mail server IP address before it blocks the emails? Or does it check both IPs?
An ad-network requires my website to have certain amount of traffic for x days to qualify, but they won't provide stats and have asked me to log the stats myself.
For incoming traffic stats, I already use AWstats etc, but is there anything available for logging outgoing traffic as well?
I installed and configured the POP3 and SMTP servers in windows IIS and set them up to auth using standard auth and windows usernames for the account groomi and admin.
I can receive incoming mail just fine, but when I try to send outgoing mail with the same credentials I get a 535-invalid logon error..

Is there a way to track outgoing mail that's sent from a Linux server? I'm running on Fedora 8 now, and would like to confirm and check mail that's being sent out by a PHP application.
