yaax Posted February 5, 2004 Posted February 5, 2004 Hello! I am server admin and my server ip was recently blacklisted on spamcop. I need to know who from my server users sent this spam. I need actual spam reports from where spamcop listed my ip to their blacklist. Since spammers could use various technics to hide themself, I need as much info as possible. How can I get this info?
jefft Posted February 5, 2004 Posted February 5, 2004 The reports are all sent to your ISP. You should be able to request the reports from them. JT
yaax Posted February 5, 2004 Author Posted February 5, 2004 Can spamcop allow some mechanism of showing this reports without need to contact anyone? As far as I know on spamhaus such reports are displayed as examples of spam messages.

Hi! ...As I understand it, SpamCop.Net used to do that, but stopped when it became apparent (I don't know how) that spammers were using that information to further their ends. ...Good luck with your investigation!

yaax Posted February 5, 2004 Author Posted February 5, 2004 My ISP have usually long delay in communications, it may take them 24-48 hours to reply for my requests. I want to know immediately who and how send spam i order to prevent this immediately. They also will not answer me on weekends and holidays, they have only small stuff in data center while weekends and holidays, so I will not get such reports until monday of next week ( I am speaking about general causes).

FAQ: How can I get SpamCop reports about my network? I get more info here: http://www.spamcop.net/bl.shtml But anyway it is not detailed enough. I already found and terminated some user running about 10 perl processes on my server and each process was generating mail messages. I hope this will solve the problem....
