Re: [FW-1] Spam blacklist...How to stop open relays at the firewall(FW-1 ) HELP!!!!!!!!!

["Timothy K. Cornelius" <timmy@FW1-NOSPAMLOI.ORG>]

Title: Message

 

At this time our internet mailserver(behind the FW-1) has been designated as an open relay mailserver and has been blacklisted by several spam blocker websites( www.orbz.org is one of them) after reading up on how to stop this at the firewall I added two rules on the firewall with services w/resources. the resource(SMTP->our-mail-only-in) is SMTP and the match is coming in the sender is * and the recipient is *loi.org. The other is going out, the resource(SMTP->our-mail-only-out) is SMTP and the match is sender is *loi.org and the recipient is *  I have also created a rule below these two that denies and mail service plus 2 services with resources (SMTP->openrelay-in and SMTP->openrelay-out) these are the same as the first two. Is this not the correct way to handle stopping an open relay mailserver or is there a better way?

 

 

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! our  mail services are just about non-existent, except my Firewall email groups.

 

1 Source: any    Dest.: mailserver     Service: SMTP->our-mail-only-in     Action: accept

2 Source:mailserver    Dest: any     Service:SMTP->our-mail-only-out     Action: accept

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Tim
