Administrivia: spam
Hi, I'm sure you have all noticed the recentincrease in spam making it through the list filters. I guess this is due to the spammers adopting techniques specifically intended to evade SpamAssassin. Over the next week, I will be adding add some extra anti-spam measures to the list. Hopefully this will stop this abuse. Until then, patience please. Thanks, Damien Miller

Administrivia: mailing list updates
Hi, You may have noticed some small changes to the list over the last few days. These are a result of the mailing list server and software being upgraded. This has brought several changes: 1. Automatic detection of bouncing subscribers. The newer version of the list software encodes an individual return-path address to detect recipients whose mail is bouncing. If too many bounces are detected,

Update on spam, postfix, fail2ban, centos 6
I have been using centos 6 in a virtualized system for a few months now. Took a while to batten down the hatches with postfix, rbls, and to use fail2ban correctly. The mailserver for my website(s) are located on the http server as well..an 'all in one' server. DNS servers are separated. My two sites, and their emails addresses (1 for each) have been around for 10 and 15 years

Spam, fail2ban and centos
Been working on my anti-spam centos mailserver for a while now and thought I would share fail2ban's help. I installed fail2ban a few weeks back. It was tough to get it working properly but pretty much working now. Although it works fine for brute force, I thought I would run it pretty tough against spammers. I started with a regular mail server, my old one, that is horrendously pounded

Administrivia: new list server
Hi, I've migrated the list, bugzilla and anongit servers. With one exception (below), you shouldn't see any difference. If you do then I've messed up and I'd appreciate your letting me know. The list server now runs on different MTA that turned out to be subtly incompatible with the TMDA mail filtering software that provides the ability for non-list members to post to

You have probably noticed the steady stream of Outlook viruses that have been appearing on the mailing list. To stem this flow somewhat, I have reduced the maxiumum message size of the list back to 40kb - most of these viruses create messages greater than 100kb. If you have large patches or logs, please post them on a website somewhere and send a URL. Apologies for any hassle that this

Administrivia: List restored
Some time last night, the mailing list server corrupted its databases. I have restored the list membership information, but Mailman will have reset your passwords and any options you may have set on your account. If you want to reset these, please visit: http://www.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/openssh-unix-dev If you sent anything to the list which hasn't appeared, please resend it.

If you would like to receive notifications of new or changed bugs, please subscribe to that list. The reply-to address on the new list points back to the openssh-unix-dev list, and all

Administrivia: Australian co-lo space wanted
Hi, I would like to find a home for a public anoncvs, cvsweb and snapshot repository for Portable OpenSSH in a decent datacenter. Can anyone recommend (off-list) good and affordable co-lo facilities in Australia, preferably Melbourne? The facilities needed are a couple of RU and Internet connectivity. IPv6 access is a strong plus, as is access to multiple carriers. If an ISP or data centre

SV: handling spam from gmail.
I get two or three of these a day. They are not from Gmail but have a "reply to" address that is a Gmail account. The messages cone from an email account that passes SPF and DKIM. So the sender and reply domains differ, but that isn't unique. I have email that I need that arrives like that. I am on the Postfix list where this does belong, but I looked at the problem and decided it

my spammer list
Hello, Thanks to some nice people on here and other forums I have pretty much finalized my whole mail system on centos 6.x. With all the checks, greylisting, dev/null of any 8+ spam level SA, I still get a few mails. It seems like everytime I enable a new protectant, the mail stops spamming for a few hours...then the spammers decide I am worthy of using better methods against me..and more

SV: handling spam from gmail.
I know it is not dovecot who should fix this. But anyone using dovecot is using an MTA, and receiving spam ;) I know how to look at email headers.
