etechsupport Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 To enable extended loggin in exim to trace nobody mails on cPanel servers. Try the following trick . 1. Edit /etc/exim.conf 2. On the second line add : log_selector = +address_rewrite +all_parents +arguments +connection_reject +delay_delivery +delivery_size +dnslist_defer +incoming_interface +incoming_port +lost_incoming_connection +queue_run +received_sender +received_recipients +retry_defer +sender_on_delivery +size_reject +skip_delivery +smtp_confirmation +smtp_connection +smtp_protocol_error +smtp_syntax_error +subject +tls_cipher +tls_peerdn \ Make sure all that comes on a single line. 3. Save and exit. 4. Restart Exim. This tweak will allow you to track spammers from /var/log/exim_mainlog as well as the headers sent alongwith the spams. scri_pt path is sent in the headers which allows any newbie to easily track spammer and suspend his account.

Wazoo Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 This has nothing to do with the MailHost Configuration of a Reporting Account. It doesn't seem to really have anything to do with SpamCop.net Reporting. So the next thing is to move this to the Lounge area .... it might be a FAQ entry, but ...?????

dbiel Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 This sounds like an interesting FAQ entry, but currently does not fit into any existing catagories. cPanel is a UNIX based program designed for use by commercial web hosting services companies and is a graphical web-based management tool, designed to make administration of web sites as easy as possible. see wikipedia for additional information on cPanel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Betsy Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 My vote is for the geeky forum - I would think people who would understand might browse there. would it help the two admins who are struggling so hard to find the spammers currently posting? If they don't have cPanel, maybe they could get it. Miss Betsy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etechsupport Posted July 18, 2006 Author Share Posted July 18, 2006 I apologise for not being able to understand actual meaning of spamhost mail configuration. I wish to share my knowledge to help system admins and network admins to track spams originating from their servers and networks. If there's no section in the forum where system admins and network admins can help each other to end spamming then I would suggest to have a separate section.

Telarin Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Maybe create a FAQ section dedicated to technical tricks on different Mail Exchangers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
