Question about Email Accounts
« on: June 04, 2003, 09:05:09 PM »
Good Morning,

This posting is in regards to the following items that I have seen in my logs.

38     29097     29097     29097      38     38    17.099250  0/

  58     50141     50141     50141      58     58    25.273172  0/

1      5160      5160      5160       1      1     0.190894  101/

   2      1026      1026      1026       2      2     0.389833  101/

   3      7122      7122      7122       3      3     0.788803  101/<#@[]>

  38     37883     37883     37883      38     38     7.457905  101/

The single line items in the log are separated here by a line space between them bringing the total number of line items mentioned in this posting to six.

The question I have about this is do these "Mail Sender" log items indicate that I have an open relay and/or accounts were created that are not listed in the "User accounts" section of the server manager? I have gone to various blacklists and some still have a listing that is two years old but others like SpamCop indicate that it's on some and not on others.

Any ideas?

Wally

Good Afternoon,

I looked at my posting in my email program and noticed that some of the log was missing. When I came online to the web-based forum, it was all there. I don't know why it didn't bring everything over through the email side of this forum.

Hrmm...

Because the mailer strips out anything between the less-than and greater-than signs (aka angle brackets), presumably in a misguided attempt to strip out HTML.
