One more thing: On my system, I cannot block mail sent from internal users to internal users because internal mail doesn't pass through EFA. I can only block mail between internal and external parties. If all my clients were reconfigured to send SMTP mail via EFA instead of their mailserver, then I ...

Yes, it can be done using MCP. Read the following threads: 1/ can we block and unblock using subject 2/ Using MCP to block offensive content 3/ if you want to be able to release the messages from quarantine, make sure to do this step . MCP is essentially a second spamassassin filter that you can als...

*bump*

Is this covered by https://github.com/E-F-A/v3/issues/26, or does it need its own issue?

It can be done, but not in a nice simple gui way.

Let me have a little think and see if I can come up with a working example.

Are you trying to selective block/quarantine internal users from sending messages, or stop external users from sending messages?

Thanks. This is what I got: http://pdwalker.net/zzscreenies/german.png so it appears that my system is showing it correctly. I'm using the EFA build from scratch version running on Centos 6.x. My client machine is Mac OSX 10.10 running the latest version of Chrome. So my system must have a differenc...

Or maybe create a custom spam assassin rule for it to automatically give it a high spam score? That'd get the message into quarantine, assuming you are saving your high spam scoring messages.

Why do you want to save the messages in quarantine?

DaN,

sent you a pm on this matter.

The latest version partially fixes this problem, which is why I asked what version he's running. See below. http://pdwalker.net/zzscreenies/MessageList.png Notice the u in Peru in the low spam message, and the Chinese characters in the other messages. In 3.0.0.7, all the foreign language characters ...

What version of EFA are you running?

spammers.

we should put a bounty on them, alive or dead.

can one of the administrators delete this thread and ban this asshole?

Perhaps you can tell us a bit more about what problem you are actually having?

(who knew there were so many cunning linguists on the forum)

Not a bad idea. Handle all the "executable" extensions (there are many) and you've handled the main problem we are trying to solve.

Cyril,

Tell us how you have EFA configured so we can start making some guesses as to what your problem is.

Cyril,

Can you read or translate the English configuration instructions? The configuration of EFA is very simple.

Tell me what you want your configuration to be and perhaps I can help.

Je ne parle pas français, mais je peux lire un peu de.

I think the greylisting is ok. Greylisting will cause the mail to be delayed, not blocked. This is normal. A good mail program will resend the mail. A bad spammer program will not. When the good mail server resends the mail, the greylisting program will "learn" that the sending mail server is "ok" a...

There are no other interesting lines in maillog around the same place? Could you give us some more information from maillog, say 10 lines before and after that line.

Your original configuration: FW <-> ZIMBRA mail.dugregorio.com.br originally had a public ip that points to FW FW used NAT mapping to map the ports (25, 110, 995, etc) to ZIMBRA. This configuration works. Your new configuration for incoming and outgoing mail is: FW <-> EFA <-> ZIMBRA To make this wo...

No, my Brazilian Portuguese is very bad, but I can play with the online translators and get a better translation.

Your problem should be simple to solve.

Give me 10 more minutes to write down my explanation (in English )

From your EFA box, can you telnet successfully to another smtp box?

e.g. telnet <another mailserver 25>


What about /var/log/maillog? Are there any interesting messages in there that give more information?

I assume English is not your first langauge and you used some online translator? If so, could you post the original message in your original language as well? One of us might understand it better than the automatic translation. If I am translating the translation correctly, this is your current conf...

If your network and firewalls are configured correctly, efa should have no problem sending mail outside.

perhaps you could be a bit more specific as to what that problem is?

You're better off training spamassassin to see that as "spam".

That'll achieve the result you want without plugging up the system looking for keywords in subjects (or whole subjects).

Useful.
