Examining the postfix queue with postqueue -p: I see many (Host or domain name not found.

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

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. On my centos 5 server I just used sendmail with spamassassin and it killed a

Hi, I'm currently fine-tuning my mail server (Postfix and Dovecot on CentOS 7). SPF, DKIM and DMARC work fine, now I'd like to limit the spam tsunami. Besides the official Postfix documentation, I've read a few articles about Postfix spam restrictions, namely these : https://www.linuxbabe.com/mail-server/block-email-spam-postfix https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/postfix_restrictions

Hi All, I'm currently playing with smtp_recipient restrictions to try and knock some of this spam on it's head. On my old debian server, I was using this and successfully filtering out at least 90% if not more of all spam emails which was great. I didn't even need spamassassin. However, trying to do the same thing on my new CentOS based server isn't working. With the

I wanted to pass this along. I'm sure it may be nothing new to most of you, but it has greatly reduced sasl attacks and spam. I found most of it here: https://scottlinux.com/2011/05/26/prevent-postfix-brute-force/ I added the fail2ban rule and modified my postfix main.cf as follows: smtpd_client_connection_rate_limit = 3 smtpd_delay_reject = yes smtpd_helo_required = yes

Hi, I'm hoping that someone might be able to help, as I've been going in circles with trying to get the right configuration done here. I'm also not sure whether this is more of a Dovecot or DSpam question, so I'm posting the same to both mailing lists. My goal is to have a mail setup that is as follows: [Incoming email] --> [Postfix] --> [Amavis] --> [DSpam] -->
