This was created locally via the "sendmail" command.  What user
account has "uid" 5005?  If this is www-data or similar, you likely
have an insecure PHP script that is being exploited to send spam.

Just look for any other log-entries with the same message-id:

    kflvqedfdosxjjhkebewy...@sfilc.com

but also do quickly run "getent passwd 5005" and report the results.


spamfilter:x:5005:5005::/usr/local/spamassassin:/bin/false

its user used to run spamassassin. I did open the ports and i saw as soon as i open port 25 i get the flood and uid used is 5005. Should i change this user? since it is not related to any www or http, i assume its not php or anything causing it.
