Hello Andrey, You've piqued my interest now :-)
I have used fail2ban for many things, dovecot, postfix-auth, ssh (moot, after I changed the port), roundcube, etc. What are other tools you would recommend? I have seen the postfix anvil daemon at work in the background. I have gotten used to using fail2ban, and it seems to do the job, but if there is something better, I would like to check it out :-) On April 4, 2019 8:07:09 PM GMT+01:00, Andrey Repin <anrdae...@yandex.ru> wrote: >Greetings, Esteban L! > >> You will need to install fail2ban to ip block failed attempts. > >> As you have correctly assumed, a malicious person is trying to hack >into you mail server. > >> Fail2ban is a required application now and days. > >That's hardly true. > >I haven't found a use for fail2ban in last ten years.
