Hi list, |
2 |
|
3 |
I have a slightly offtopic question that I hope I can get help with |
4 |
here. I have a home server, running an MTA for my domain. As of the last |
5 |
month or so, I have experienced a huge increase in spam and spam |
6 |
bounces. To combat this, I have upped my MTA's pickyness quite a bit but |
7 |
would like to up it more. Specifically, I would like to reject mail |
8 |
where sender says HELO jaquet.dk and/or where the Received line looks |
9 |
like .*@jaquet.dk (my MTA's Received stamps are of the form |
10 |
.*@mail.jaquet.dk). Spammers like to use these to 'fake' their way |
11 |
through. |
12 |
|
13 |
This brings me to the point, because it seems like mozilla and |
14 |
thunderbird (my GF uses one, I use the other) grabs the domain |
15 |
information they use in their SMTP exchanges from the sender email address. |
16 |
So, when my GF sends from work via their MTAs to my home server as |
17 |
x@××××××.dk, that mail will run afoul of this rule since the first |
18 |
Received will look like |
19 |
|
20 |
Received: from jaquet.dk (XXXX) |
21 |
by mail.XXX.dk (Postfix) with ESMTP id 75FE532CD4C |
22 |
etc |
23 |
|
24 |
even though her laptop at the point of sending isnt connected to my |
25 |
network. |
26 |
|
27 |
So, the question. Do anyone know how to fix this? I found a bugzilla |
28 |
entry for this, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68877, |
29 |
with a final comment that this have been committed to tbird 0.6 and |
30 |
mozilla 1.7 in 2005. I am running tbird 1.5.0.7 and still sees this. |
31 |
Any clues? |
32 |
|

Thanks, |
34 |
