Hello all, Some time ago I had a nasty rash of backscatter so I installed and configured the VBounce plugin. Coincidentally the backscatter stopped at the same time and I haven't had much of a problem since. I kind of forgot about it - until just now when I genuinely sent a message which bounced back to me. It got caught with the ANY_BOUNCE_MESSAGE rule and was filtered (by procmail) into my spam folder.
I have the following entry in my /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf file: whitelist_bounce_relays *blueyonder.co.uk but it was still caught. The instructions in the wiki say to use whitelist_bounce_relays with the server you normally sent out mail from. I remember at the time I set it up trying a few different permutations because it seems that the outbound mail relay can be variations on the theme of smtp-in2.blueyonder.co.uk (sometimes in1 sometimes in3 sometimes something else altogether). The (slightly sanitised) headers from the bounceback can be seen here: http://pastebin.com/m3112eb51 How should I set up VBounce so that genuine bouncebacks get through but backscatter is caught? Thanks for your help... AD p.s. I have also just discovered that notifications of submissions to the Fedora bugzilla that I recently submitted also hit ANY_BOUNCE_MESSAGE. Why???
