Somewhat related to the above, I have both a sendmail system and an
exim system. Based on some email in the exim ML that pointed out that
requirement of no space after the colon I decided to do a little
research. I've not enough m4 fu to do this on sendmail, so I
configured my exim system to log and insert headers for any MAIL FROM
and RCPT TO that had a space after the colon. The amount of MUA's
that include that space when submitting messages is mind boggling.
I don't reject connections based on RBLs until the rcpt phase because
I want to see both sender and intended recipients. Since Sunday, on
one machine:
MAIL FROM: <space> 128991
RCPT TO: <space> 235080
Some of this, yeah, is botnet traffic. But based on previously
examining the logs, much of this is authenticated traffic too.
