From RFC 2821 3.1 Session Initiation The SMTP protocol allows a server to formally reject a transaction while still allowing the initial connection as follows: a 554 response MAY be given in the initial connection opening message instead of the 220. I.e. if an RBL'd host connects to you, even before the HELO/EHLO, you can tell them to go away 554 Transaction failed (go away evil spammer) -- Michael Newbery IP Architect TelstraClear Limited

Persistent spammer 210.24.225.148
by Simon Byrnand 26 Feb '03

26 Feb '03

Anyone else had trouble with a very persistant spammer on adsl148.dyn225.pacific.net.sg [210.24.225.148] or nearby ip addresses belonging to the same ISP lately ? Doing dictionary attacks, and attempting connections at the rate of several hundred per minute, (up to 50 simultaneous connections at once) and still attempting the same connection rate even after being firmly 550'ed.....not funny at all. Had the same thing happen a week ago from another adsl ip address belonging to the same ISP and actually got what seemed like a positive response to abuse@ saying that they had sorted out the problem, only for it to happen again less than a week later from a slightly different ip address. Just paying lip service to abuse emails, or do they have a high percentage of scum like customers I wonder... :) Regards, Simon Byrnand iGRIN Internet

Heads Up - streaming event thursday
by Richard Naylor 25 Feb '03

25 Feb '03

Heads up There is a streaming event in Wgtn tomorrow, covering a presentation by the CEO of MTV-Europe, Brent Hansen. The stream will start with test pattern and "curtain opener" stuff at around 4:30pm with the main event at 5:30pm until around 8:00pm. Streams will be at 56k, 128k and 384kbps and will be on WIX coming from l1.r2.co.nz (203.118.144.36) While we don't expect the traffic volumes of the LOTR event last year, they have managed to sell some tickets and maybe someone might watch (other than us in the hall). So there appears to be some interest. We also have advanced warning of a LOTR event in mid March. I'll advise as soon as I get told something. rich

Big increase in 419 spam?
by Juha Saarinen 21 Feb '03

21 Feb '03

Am I just being unlucky, or are others seeing a big surge in 419 spam? Not just from Nigeria (blocked), but from freemail servers all over the place -- Europe, Asia, the US, South America etc. 419 spam accounts for the vast majority of UCE/UBE that I receive now. -- Juha Saarinen
