steni31 Posted July 26, 2004 Share Posted July 26, 2004 Hi, We use bl.spamcop.net for spam checking. Unfortunately some large Danish ISP's sometimes wind up in the spamcop database, this causes my mail servers to throw away e-mail which is okay. Do you have a list of your listed mailservers with rdns hostname listed also that way i can search this list with a scri_pt? Thanks in advance.

Wazoo Posted July 26, 2004 Share Posted July 26, 2004 No, there is no such list. On the other hand, you'll note that the guidance for use of the SpamCopDNSbl is for Tagging of suspected spam, not "thowing e-mail away" .... perhaps you actually want to revisit your configuration and change the methods of handling spam?

steni31 Posted July 27, 2004 Author Share Posted July 27, 2004 unfortunately my mailserver software doesn't not support filtering only lookups and throw away. What about this list, does this list not contain the newest mailservers acused of spaming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenUnderwood Posted July 27, 2004 Share Posted July 27, 2004 What list???? The dnsbl only contains ip addresses that have been accused of spamming recently. 1.2.3.4.bl.spamcop.net 127.0.0.2 #IP address 4.3.2.1 5.6.7.8.bl.spamcop.net 127.0.0.2 #IP address 5.6.7.8 Does your mailserver software allow for whitelisting of certain IP addresses? You could add them manually as you found them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steni31 Posted July 27, 2004 Author Share Posted July 27, 2004 Ups, this list: http://www.spamcop.net/w3m?action=inprogress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenUnderwood Posted July 27, 2004 Share Posted July 27, 2004 It shows the most recent reports, but usually only the most recent 15 minutes worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steni31 Posted July 27, 2004 Author Share Posted July 27, 2004 Then i could check this list every 5 min. with a scri_pt searching for the ISP postmaster adress?? Then whitelist the IP if found...?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenUnderwood Posted July 27, 2004 Share Posted July 27, 2004 Why not just whitelist the IP's to begin with? You should be able to search your logs for the IP's the messages from those users come from and whitelist them before they become listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steni31 Posted July 29, 2004 Author Share Posted July 29, 2004 I winded up using this solution, the ISP ended up handing me all there mailserver ip adresses. Thanks for you effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
