Re: Senmail MTA open
Here's a good doc on anti-relaying from sendmail.org
http://www.sendmail.org/tips/relaying.html
And here's a good doc on how to use the "check" features in the rulesets.

Re: Senmail MTA open
I haven't done this in a little while, but you can setup an access database where you can actually regulate the incoming mail by stating if it is OK to do this:
1. go to the /etc/mail directory and use vi to create a file called 'access' to setup your allowable addresses:
johndoe@company.com OK
imcingular.com RELAY
notthisguy@no.com REJECT
2. execute the command "makemap hash /etc/mail/access < /etc/mail/access
3. Stop and restart sendmail.
This should help you keep this under control

Re: Senmail MTA open
Why don't you post your configuration file so we can have a look.
As mentioned in an earlier post, control relaying with the access database.

Re: Senmail MTA open
Firstly, the NOQUEUE bascially means that an incoming connection was initiated, but then dropped... I can see right through this trick used by the spammers. What they are doing here is testing how you have restricted acceptance by the ip addresses they are using and going for certain ranges (So now, it's war..
Since this can become an involved battle to see which range they will try next, and add that we normally use the access table and use the option REJECT, which can indicate to the spammer to try another series of addresses... To combat this, use the DISCARD option instead of REJECT, as this will make the spammer think that the message has gone through, all the while, the messages are being discarded. Keep in mind that you can specify a part of an ip address to reject, so, you could per say, use the first octet to see if it will discard these messages. I've never tried using only the first octet in the ip address, but here's a good reason to try, it won't hurt.
Also, Can you go to your /var/adm/syslog/mail.log and get the destination addresses/domains that these messages are going to? If you can narrow it down to where these messages are going, you can create the mailertable to direct certain mail to a specified smtp host and make the message fail, or send it to a host and store these messages for further investigation (hint, hint).
1. Go to /etc/mail directory, use vi to create a file called mailertable.
2. Your entries will look like this:
101.0 smtp:dummyhost.com
101.10 smtp:dummyhost.com
3. Execute the command "makemap dbm /etc/mail/mailertable < /etc/mail/mailertable"
4. Use vi to edit sendmail.cf and uncomment the line that points to the mailertable, i.e.
"Kmailertable dbm /etc/mail/mailertable
5. Stop and Start Sendmail again.
Let me know if this helps.
P.S. Also, a little visit to your Firewall administrator might not hurt to see if he can catch this traffic at the firewall and reject it..
