Re: spambots and dictionary attacks



Why do you need to do it this way, do you have a default address for the domain? As far as I know the only way to do it is via the exim.conf:

Chirpy has a great link expalining it:

I would like to hear from anyone that has successfully blocked

really edit the exim.conf file, but have access to access,
virtusertable, trustedusers and sendmail.cw.

Do you mean a mail proxy between the cloud and your existing mail
server, or what?



Hello Greg.

I need to be able to filter out the spam bots without a proxy, and
without having access to exim.conf.
