Hi,


Today I start to get something like that in my qmail-smtpd log:

@40000000425d5b4710447784 CHKUSER rejected rcpt: from <::> remote <mailstep.com:
unknown:128.241.88.105> rcpt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : not existing recipient
@40000000425d5b47106c75cc tcpserver: status: 3/20


@40000000425d5ba019eb855c CHKUSER rejected rcpt: from <::> remote <mail.7cv.com:
unknown:221.122.46.226> rcpt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : not existing recipient


It's clear that someone are trying to use my server to send SPAM. Thanks to CHKUSER to block this attempts.

So, It's drive me crazy cause I can't figure how it happen. In a desperate attempt to stop this I simple block a few hundreds of IPs in tcp.smtp file, but it's not a solution. My log now got this:

@40000000425d5b3300cf1994 tcpserver: end 24918 status 25600
@40000000425d5b3300cf6b9c tcpserver: status: 2/20
@40000000425d5b331f231f6c tcpserver: status: 3/20
@40000000425d5b331f2336dc tcpserver: pid 24920 from 66.160.106.130
@40000000425d5b331f234294 tcpserver: deny 24920 0:x.x.x.x:25 :66.160.106.13
0::32301

And I know that the IP's used can change...

I think that somebody with some user password for smtp is making this, but I can't determine from where or which account he is using. I have no logs for smpt-auth user success or failed...

Please, somebody could give me some light to stop that?

Cheers,
