we've had a "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" alias for a while, and now it's killing us. every six to eight minutes we get a new email which pretends it's from "@nei-group.com" and it contains microso~1 html with a FIVE MEG excel file attached.
every few minutes! over and over again. i've got each user set up with a .forward that includes if $return_path contains "@nei-group" then seen finish endif this at least keeps the partition from overflowing from incoming crap, but our bandwidth is still being eaten alive to the tune of 5mb (an excel file, purportedly) every few minutes. this is probably something i need to configure in exim, right? (interestingly, it contains some -- probably fake -- spam-scanned headers, and spamassassin doesn't seem to be scanning it; the logs show spam-scanned, but there's no X-Spam-Level headers or any other spamassassin fingerprints on it. odd!) -- I use Debian/GNU Linux version 3.0; Linux boss 2.4.18-bf2.4 #1 Son Apr 14 09:53:28 CEST 2002 i586 unknown DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #23 from Will Trillich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : Wondering what you should BACK UP -- and what you shouldn't?
