Hello Diadem,

The discussion of uncaught spam is normally one that we ask be forwarded to our spam auditing team at spamauditor@linuxmagic.com, however, let us review.

Message #1: This message would have been caught quite handily by the check_dynamic_reverse_dns rule - friendly label: "Block Mail Servers on Dynamic/Dial-up Addresses" which you presently have disabled.

Message #2: the source IP has since been added to PSBL block list as a spam outbreak source. Your lists should be updated now and your server should be protected from that particular spam leak.

Message #3: Again - this message would have been blocked by check_dynamic_reverse_dns

Message #4: the source IP has also been added to PSBL

Message #5: Also added to PSBL

If you do find other patterns of abuse that you feel should be brought to our attention, please forward said messages with full headers intact (forward as attachment) to spamauditor@linuxmagic.com where our auditing team can perform a comprehensive review.

As well, not sure if you saw or not, but we have posted a critical notification regarding recent events with spamassassin (if you use it in conjunction with MagicSpam and 4PSA) at:

Greetings,

was that last message delivered before or after you enabled the check_dynamic_reverse_dns rule? It should have been stopped by that rule.

One thing that is somewhat odd in this whole message is the number of hops being seen in the message.

Tracing the 'received' headers, the original message came from 120.62.169.74 - which has a reverse DNS matching the check_dynamic_reverse_dns rule. This message was received by server mailer02.diadem-tech.com (75.126.183.6).

It then hops to be received by plesk02.diadem-tech.com. I am assuming your company runs both mailer02 and plesk02 servers? I am assuming that MagicSpam is installed on plesk02? Is it also installed on mailer02?

Is mailer02 a mail relay for your plesk domains? Is your plesk server configured to trust mailer02 as a trusted to relay source? If so, then MagicSpam by design will 'trust' that your level of trust is justified and bypass certain rules as a result.

Please let us know if this is the case.
