Lot of SPAM mails in queue - Warnings from ISP

807574Sep 9 2007 — edited Feb 11 2020
Hi Jay,Shane and ALL,

We are running messaging on Solaris 10 with below version.

Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 6.2-7.05 (built Sep 5 2006)
libimta.so 6.2-7.05 (built 12:18:44, Sep 5 2006)

Insured that no entries added to mappings (except localhost) and only "authenticated SMTP" allowed.

We implemented Separate AV/anti-spam box with aliasdetour and conversion channel which is working fine.

we could achieve >95% spam control but recently we started receiving warnings from ISP that SPAM being sent out from our mail server.
