spam control
Gents,
I have added the following to /etc/mail/sendmail.mc and rebuilt it
trying to control spam. I still get about 25 spam messages a day.
Is there something else that can help control spam?
Thanks

Using Dovecot-auth to return error code 450 (or other 4xx) to Postfix when user is on vacation
Hello to all members.
I am using Dovecot for 5 years, but this is my first post here.
I am aware of the various autoresponder scripts for vacation autoreplies (I am using Virtual Vacation 3.1 by Mischa Peters).
I have an issue with auto-replies - it is vulnerable to spamming with forged email address.
Forging can be prevented with several Postfix settings, which I did in the past - but was forced

Installed CentOS 5 today, question about an error I'm getting
So I did a fresh install today. Decided to go ahead and upgrade.
Everything seems okay save for three problems.
#1 - I get a message during boot saying that an Intel microcode update
didn't work. Something about not being able to find /proc/microcode.
#2 - I can't use the Firefox extension HTML Parser. Anyone use this.
#3 - Off and on GDM crashes and I get dropped into a prompt.

Spam to this list
Hi,
I'm not sure what the policy of this list is and I bet everyone has a spam
filter, so nobody might have noticed, but we got spammed.
Can anyone send mail to the list or do you have to subscribe first ?

Rejecting valid mail (including this mailing list)
Recently, I added the below line to my sendmail.mc and rebuilt.
Everything was working just fine until sometime today. In looking over
the maillog, it seems if almost every piece of mail was rejected because
of this configuration - mail that I know is OK, valid, and not a source
of spam, like tamu.edu. Not only that, but the mailing list from centos
was being rejected as well. Anyone know

Quota, maildir, MySQL,
Hi everybody,
I am trying to work with quota. I use postfix and dovecot with a sql

the quota part. It doesn't seem to see the quota and doesn't respond to
the sender that the client is over its quota.
versions:

Thanks for the help in advance.

Q's about switching from sendmail to postfix
Running CentOS 4.2 with all updates. I've been using sendmail for my
MTA since forever. I've grown used to it and I can make it do what I
want it to. However (there's always a catch, isn't there)...
Lately it seems that some mail is being lost. I've noticed some
instances when a message was sent to myself and others which I will only
see if someone replies back to

It seems to be happening when I use vnd.dovecot.filter. When I comment

My filter block looks like this:

sendmail and rbl blocking - generating statistics
I have enabled the feature in sendmail.mc to check with spamhaus for
spammers. However since this block is being made at MTA level, I would
like to know is something can be done to obtain statistics of blocked

postfix and spam, I am impressed
I have had the same email address since 1997 (when microsoft stole
bob.com from me thanks to network solutions...)
In the early days I of course was free with my email and used it everwhere.
Fast forward to 2012, some 15 years later.
woof..the amount of spam sent to me has always just kept getting worse
and worse.

I have centos 4.8 i686. It has stock sendmail. see file below.
I am getting reports that it is an open relay. I have searched all

Dovecot and Bogofilter
Hi,
on my small Xen-virtualised server with 48 MiB RAM I use Postfix and
Dovecot, because the Debian administrators dislike qmail [1], which is in
my opinion despite some maintainability and code quality issues a quite
well designed software, because it mostly follows the UNIX principles.
Postfix is not able to sort my E-Mail into different Maildir folders and
after I looked at procmail's
