Firewall level protection is another subject by itself and can be an
obscure one.Even when we have MessageLabs scanning all of our smtp traffic (in/out) we
do have to put some blocks on specific files like *.scr *.vb? *.hta *.dll
and others. Because of the nature of our business, I don't block *.pdf
graphic files, and zip files among other popular extensions but they do
get scanned by MessageLabs and McAfee.
It is with experience that I have learned that you can't rely on just one
level of virus security because one can't catch them all. that's why we
have to level of virus protection and I wish a third could be implemented:
user level security. this is a hard one, to teach your users how to do
safe email. It takes a lot of time to make your users aware that viruses
can cause a lot of damage and that their machine can be next. Don't trust
any of them even if it's your CEO or CIO, even if you know they're power
users.

Subject: Maximum number of messages
Does Worldmail 2.0 impose a limit on the maximum number of messages that a
user can send at one time or over the course of a certain time period?
One of our users was sending out a mass e-mail using Group Mail Pro, which
I believe sends the messages using BCC in "small" groups using our
WorldMail server. This was working very well until our list grew from
5,000 to 8,000 members. Group Mail Pro stopped after 6,200 messages with
the error message that our ISP limits the number of mail messages we can
send. Of course, I assume "our ISP" is our mail server. Group Mail Pro
states in their docs that there is no limit on the number of messages that
can be sent, and I haven't found anything in WorldMail's documentation
stating that there is a limit.
Thanks,

Subject: Re: Maximum number of messages
Ryan -
Don't assume anything, you are probably being seen as a spammer by you
upstream Internet Service Provider. Whoever it is probably tracks the
amount of traffic originating from your mail server and then locked you down.
If you are sending thousands of emails, they are probably of an advertising
or newsletter nature, something like spam, and that's what I bet is happening.
Just call your ISP and explain what you are doing and they will probably
explain there policies and procedures. From your WHOIS info, it looks like
the folks to talk with are the folks at Savvis.net - here is the contact
info as provided by the WHOIS tool from Verisign.
Good Luck!

By the way 6k to 8k pieces of email definitely fits the bill of "bulk mail"
and easily fits into the realm of spam.

Hi,
I just signed up for this list. I'm having a little crisis with my mail
server being down and the folks at Qualcomm are away for the weekend.
The problem is that mail sent to the server is being bounced back with the
error:
... while talking to mail.freesportsplay.com. [198.65.141.75]:
>>> RCPT To:<jligda at freesportsplay dot com>
<<< 550 Unable to relay for jligda at freesportsplay dot com
550 <jligda at freesportsplay dot com>... User unknown
This happens with both alias forwarding, mail list and mailbox users and for
all the domains.
Mail sent out through the server is not sent at all.
Can any make suggestions? I've tried reloading the software, starting and
stopping the service. Name server lookups and MX lookups seem to go through
OK. Currently I have an open relay, which I will close again once I can
troubleshoot this problem.
Any insights will be welcomed.

It looks like it does not recognise that mail address ...
jligda at freesportsplay dot com as being local.
Check 1000% for spelling mistakes in domain name in Worldmail (like missing
one of the S's)

Your note doesn't say whether you are submitting mail on the same system
that the worldmail server is running on or from somewhere else on the
network.
Does the domain name for worldmail's mailboxes agree with the address
that the MX record points to?
It also looks like there's a potential problem with reverse lookups. A
traceroute on mail.FREESPORTSPLAY.COM's IP address doesn't return the
domain name.

out of the box, worldmail is an open relay server. You'll need to find
WorldMail's security settings and turn off relaying. Then you turn on
either the specific ip address or subnet that your outside users are
using on the internet.

I'm running a Worldmail server that hosts about 20 small domains. Right

None that I'm aware of. Without the Domain name on the end, how would
worldmail decipher between john@domaina and john@domainb. That's the
logic that Qualcomm followed with Worldmail, as it makes sense. You can
set one domain as the default domain. The members of the default domain
don't have to use their domain name, as it will always look within this
account if no domain was provided at login.

You could put the logic into the web mail front-end.
If the communities are pretty small and not changing much ... then you could
hold a list within the webmail login process.
If not - then you could issue a management command to Worldmail from within
the web app to periodically sync or to check to see what domain a domain a
given "userId" is in.
If the web mail supports LDAP then you could turn on that function in
Worldmail and make the webmail check data in there.
There might be another method in Worldmail ... to use an alias instead of an
email address when logging in ... I can't remember the specifics, but it was
related to a trick sort-of-DNS within the underlying software. If it is in
there ... then I think you would have to start again with your install - it
being a once and forever configuration item. [I think it was originally done
for multi-machine distributed domain support ... which would never be needed
in a Worldmail installation but was often used within its "big brother"]

Subject: Klez info (not much)
One and two thirds buildings down...
For those of you using NAV Corp edition to scan computers remotely, the
only thing I've found that might be helpful to pinpointing the computer(s)
in you network that are actually infected is to study your sweep
histories. Because Klez attacks the NAV client, those computers will not
show up at all on a sweep. So if you have a manageable number of stations
and can spot an AWOL machine easily, that might be a useful place at least
to start your investigations. Another clue would be a computer that shows
in the main screen but when you right click for a virus history the server
tells you it cannot gather data from that machine: this could indicate a
machine that formerly reported in and no longer can because client has been
destroyed. (It could also reflect a dial-in connection, a laptop that's
gone mobile, etc.)
What I'd like to see Symantec do is have a second set of flags for the
latter instance: the red X would indicate virus found, perhaps a yellow
bang (!) could indicate a client machine that should be but is not
reporting to the server.
I'm afraid this isn't much help, but hope it's some. FWIW we've found 2
true infections so far and both machines will have to be reformatted.
My fear is we'll get this cleaned up just in time for the next virus...

Why reformat? Klez isn't -that- bad. As far as I know.
As far as NAV itself being infected...
Option one is to kill off the Klez process (so that it can't infect
anything
more), disconnect the machine from your office net but not the internet,
install a fresh copy of NAV, and let the new NAV do its thing.
Option two is to kill off the Klez process, then point NAV at the machine
in
question from some other machine on the net, and let it scrub the machine
over the net.
Option three is not bother killing off the Klez process (it can have many
names), and to just keep doing the rest of Option one or two repeatedly
until
the machine scan turns up clean.
Hope this helps. I've done Klez with both option one and option two with
success. On one of the machines I also did an "upgrade-in-place" of
Win2000
in order to recover a couple damaged system files.
Of course, if rebuilding the disk is easy, there's nothing wrong with
doing
it that way.

--=====================_68599871==_.ALT

We're considering moving our listserv capabilities in-house. We currently
use Sparklist/Lyris services. I'd like to keep the listserv accounts in a
different email domain than the rest of our 35+ users and distribution lists.
First question: Is everyone that is using WorldMail as a listserv happy
with the functionality and manageability of WorldMail?
Second question: Our current domain is X.org. If I create a domain called
Y.X.org, it creates some havoc with the mail, as everything X.org is trying
to be delivered to the first domain. Is adding a simple MX and A record in
our DNS enough, or will I have to create a new domain name and register it?

Subject: Manager Access
Have had Worldmail running without a hitch for almost 3 years. Rarely have
to do anything admin wise, but when I went to add a new distribution list I
found that all the add options are grayed out or unavailable. A little
hunting around and I found "Changing the manager passwords" (page 168 of
the manual), but those options are grayed out as well.
I have tried logging into the box as domain admin/local admin without any
luck ...
Am sort of stumped with it now ... would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Steve Green

Subject: Re: export question
I know one easy way:
On the email server run locally regedit.exe
Find HKLM\SOFTWARE\ISOCOR\Services\SMTP\LocaDomains\"Your domain"\Names
Highlight the folder "Names" and click on "Registry" in the top menu and
select "Export..."
then save it in a folder as "UserNames.reg" for example. (the file has to
be saved with the "reg" extension.)
Now you have a backup copy of your user accounts including the passwords.
In case your email server crashes and you have to reinstall the whole
enchilada, once it's reinstalled, you just have to execute locally the
unsernames.reg file and it will restore your user accounts.

P.s.: If you mess up your registry, please don't blame me . It is your
responsibility to know what you're doing with the registry.

Looks like the mail server can't find its own name ... and has decided that
it must be in a special multi-machine environment (as used by "ISOCOR" when
the full function product was sold to ISPs) - So-called Distributed Domain.
I am a bit surprised though - because I thought that it only did referrals
for IMAP4.
Thought - what happens if you add one new mailbox and try to login to it?

Have you made any changes to your system settings - computer name, domain
name, etc? In your case the message store service no longer thinks that it's
running on a server called rentokil.rentokil-tps.com. I'd suggest you run
Isotrace and then restart the message store server. One of the first lines
it prints is the server name that it determined that it runs on.
Verify that the server name is rentokil.rentokil-tps.com.

I have changed the domain name on my server and didn't reboot at
the time. Yesterday, after uninstalling the Wins server I rebooted the

happened.
Checked everything else but the simplest thing. that's how it goes,

Subject: Can Worldmail use LDAP for user authentication?
We are trying to consolidate some systems with distributed
authentication and I was wondering if Worldmail can use LDAP to
authenticate users.
I know the server comes w/a LDAP server for directory services (which
I still haven't been able to use).
Thank you, Elliott

Sorry - pretty sure that it cannot.
It can maintain data in LDAP on your behalf for other applications to use -
i.e. you create a User Account and Worldmail writes data to LDAP.

What you are referring to can not be done in WorldMail -- POP before SMTP
authentication (I don't know if that is the "official" name for it). As far
as I know, WorldMail does not support any type of SMTP Authentication.
Also, Ben, you mentioned that you have never been able to get secure
authentication to work. You need to keep in mind that the secure
authentication only applies to POP3/IMAP authentication and has no bearing
on SMTP. Also, I don't believe that the "Secure Authentication" setting in
Outlook Express is CRAM-MD5. If I remember correctly it is some proprietary
MS protocol...

Subject: Worldmail resets user password
My users 'use' Outlook Express as their email client, versions 4 to 6,
and every now and then, they call me to tell me that their program ask
them to enter their username and password to get their messages.
the login info is supposed to be saved but somehow Worldmail resets
or forgets the password. I say Worldmail because once I change it, it
works fine again.
Has anyone suffer from this? I can't imagine having 2 or 3k users
w/the same problem.

Subject: Worldmail pegs cpu
Date: Mon, 19 Aug 2002 12:27:13 -0500
Has anyone experienced what I occasionally (once a month?) do on an NT4
(PIII) server (which also runs sql7)?
Once in a while I notice the server's response slows down considerably.
Running task manager shows that smtpd.exe process is consuming all the cpu
time for no apparent reason.
QM Logs show nothing remarkable, relaying is blocked.
Stopping/starting WM server solves problem. No other smtp service is loaded.
Any thoughts? TIA

Subject: Re: Worldmail resets user password
this is exactly the symptom w/Outlook Express. To fix it I just re-enter the password on
the server. I've never checke under current connections to see if there are any.
I feel better that I'm not the only one.
Thanks to all.

Subject: Re: Worldmail pegs cpu
Are you experiencing any DNS lookup failures? Do you have an AV system
running on the system? Just a couple of things I have run into the past
year when I have had problems with SMTPd.

Plus - can you get in an watch what it is doing with ISOTRACE - it shows
more low level stuff than appears in the log files.
Enable Verbose on SMTP - you can practice when it is not using up all CPU!

Subject: Eudora client question
I have a Eudora client question -- and I know that this is the wrong
forum... I hope y'all don't mind.
Is it possible to put a JPG or a GIF image into a signature or stationery
file?
It seems like a sensible thing to do, to put a company logo in there, but
the menu option to "Insert Picture" is greyed out in my 5.1 paid
version of Eudora.
(Surprise surprise, the Eudora web site support is useless on this issue.)
Thanks!

Subject: Distribution Lists
If anyone is familiar with the distribution list function in Worldmail 2.0
I am having a problem in sending a large distribution list to the
comcast.net domain
Their mailserver is detecting a large group of messages being sent to the
server at the same
time and is viewing this mail as spam.
It will only accept a certain number of these E-mail's and just drops the
rest of them with no notification to the sender (me)
Does anyone know if there is a way to send to the distribution list in
burst of say 20 E-mails at a time?
I have pursued this problem with Comcast and Qualcomm and have yet to find
a solution.
If not......Does anyone know a list serve software that they would feel
confident to recommend.
Any help is greatly appreciated
Thanks,

Pretty sure that Worldmail won't break them up into smaller sub-sets.
You could check to see if there is a "maximum number of recipients" under
the Restrictions tab for outbound mail routing to a custom domain (there is
on my mail server - but it is based on software that is quite a few releases
beyond Worldmail 2).
If it is there - then create a custom domain for comcast.net and set the
restriction.
