Derek T Posted May 17, 2004 Posted May 17, 2004 195.146.81.132 listed in bl.spamcop.net (127.0.0.2) Since SpamCop started counting, this system has been reported less than 10 times by less than 10 users. It has been sending mail consistently for at least 21.5 days. It has been listed for 27 hours. * In the past week, this system has: Been detected sending mail to spam traps * Been witnessed sending mail about 120 times The spamtraps are the most likely cause of the listing: these are addresses that have never sent mail and should never receive it - they are 'bait' for the spyders harvesting addresses. Looking in Senderbase, the volume of mail through this IP is up over 3000% in the last day: could the machine be compromised? One common reason for the spamtrap hits is the server sending virus 'bounces' to the 'from' address, could this be the cause? For more info on what went to spamtraps email deputies <at> spam.spamcop.net, only they are privy to this information.
raistlin Posted May 17, 2004 Author Posted May 17, 2004 Thanks for help! I've had this idea todays morning and we've turned off notifications from antivirus deamon, just in case

You have a worm/virus infected user on 195.146.86.133 send body enhancement spam thru your mailserver to our spamtraps. You can write to the address in my sig when that user is firewalled off the internet and/or fixed and I will delist your IP.
