| 141 Note that this has ONLY been tested on Linux, specifically RedHat Linux. | |
| 142 In particular, this milter makes no attempt to understand IPv6. Your | |
| 143 mileage will vary. You will need at a minimum a C++ compiler with a | |
| 144 minimally thread safe STL implementation. The distribution includes a | |
| 145 test.cpp program. If it fails this milter won't work. If it passes, | |
| 146 this milter might work. | |

| 174 Consider the case of a mail server that is acting as secondary MX for a | |
| 175 collection of clients, each of which has a collection of mail domains. | |
| 176 Each client may use their own collection of DNSBLs on their primary mail | |
| 177 server. We present here a mechanism whereby the backup mail server can | |
| 178 use the correct set of DNSBLs for each recipient for each message. As a | |
| 179 side-effect, it gives us the ability to customize the set of DNSBLs on a | |
| 183 | 180 per-recipient basis, so that fred@example.com could use LOCAL and the |
| 108 | 181 SBL, where all other users @example.com use only the SBL. |
| 182 </para> | |
| 183 <para> | |
| 184 This milter can also verify the envelope from/recipient pairs with the | |
| 185 primary MX server. This allows the backup mail servers to properly | |
| 186 reject mail sent to invalid addresses. Otherwise, the backup mail | |
| 187 servers will accept that mail, and then generate a bounce message when | |
| 188 the message is forwarded to the primary server (and rejected there with | |
| 127 | 189 no such user). These rejections are the primary cause of such backscatter. |
| 108 | 190 </para> |
| 191 <para> | |
| 192 This milter will also decode (uuencode, base64, mime, html entity, url | |
| 193 encodings) and scan for HTTP and HTTPS URLs and bare hostnames in the | |
| 194 body of the mail. If any of those host names have A or NS records on | |
| 195 the SBL (or a single configurable DNSBL), the mail will be rejected | |
| 196 unless previously whitelisted. This milter also counts the number of | |
| 197 invalid HTML tags, and can reject mail if that count exceeds your | |
| 198 specified limit. | |

| 162 | 217 Consider the case of a message from A to B passing thru this milter. If |
| 218 that message is not blocked, then we might eventually see a reply | |
| 156 | 219 message from B to A. If the filtering context for A includes an |
| 162 | 220 autowhite entry, and that context does <emphasis>not</emphasis> cover B |
| 221 as a recipient, then this milter will add an entry in that file to | |
| 222 whitelist such replies for a configurable time period. Suppose A and B | |
| 223 are in the same domain, or at least use the same filtering context. In | |
| 224 that case we don't want to add a whitelist entry for B, since that would | |
| 225 then allow spammers to send mail from B (forged) to B. Such autowhite | |
| 160 | 226 files need to be writeable by the dnsbl user, where all the other dnsbl |
| 227 configuration files only need to be readable by the dnsbl user. | |

| 108 | 238 The DNSBL milter reads a text configuration file (dnsbl.conf) on |
| 239 startup, and whenever the config file (or any of the referenced include | |
| 240 files) is changed. The entire configuration file is case insensitive. | |
| 241 If the configuration cannot be loaded due to a syntax error, the milter | |
| 242 will log the error and quit. If the configuration cannot be reloaded | |
| 243 after being modified, the milter will log the error and send an email to | |
| 152 | 244 root from dnsbl@$hostname. You probably want to add dnsbl@$hostname |
| 108 | 245 to your /etc/mail/virtusertable since otherwise sendmail will reject |
| 246 that message. | |

| 262 You may want to blacklist some specific senders or sending domains. | |
| 263 This could be done thru either the DCC (on a global basis, or for a | |
| 264 specific single recipient). We prefer to do such blacklisting via the | |
| 265 DNSBL milter config, since it can be done for a collection of recipient | |
| 266 mail domains. The DCC approach has the feature that you can capture the | |
| 267 entire message in the DCC log files. The DNSBL milter approach has the | |
| 268 feature that the mail is rejected earlier (at RCPT TO time), and the | |
| 269 sending machine just gets a generic "550 5.7.1 no such user" message. | |
| 270 </para> | |
| 271 <para> | |
| 272 The DCC whiteclnt file can be included in the DNSBL milter config by the | |
| 273 dcc_to and dcc_from statements. This will import the (env_to, env_from, | |
| 274 and substitute mail_host) entries from the DCC config into the DNSBL | |
| 275 config. This allows using the DCC config as the single point for | |
| 276 white/blacklisting. | |
| 277 </para> | |
| 278 <para> | |
| 279 Consider the case where you have multiple clients, each with their own | |
| 280 mail servers, and each running their own DCC milters. Each client is | |
| 281 using the DCC facilities for envelope from/to white/blacklisting. | |
| 282 Presumably you can use rsync or scp to fetch copies of your clients DCC | |
| 283 whiteclnt files on a regular basis. Your mail server, acting as a | |
| 284 backup MX for your clients, can use the DNSBL milter, and include those | |
| 285 client DCC config files. The envelope from/to white/blacklisting will | |
| 286 be appropriately tagged and used only for the domains controlled by each | |
| 287 of those clients. | |
| 288 </para> | |
| 179 | 289 <para> |
| 290 You can now use (via dccifd) different dcc filtering parameters on a per | |
| 291 context basis. See the dcc_greylist and dcc_bulk_threshold statements | |
| 292 in the <citerefentry> <refentrytitle>@PACKAGE@.conf</refentrytitle> | |
| 293 <manvolnum>5</manvolnum> </citerefentry> configuration. Those | |
| 294 statements are only active if you supply the <option>-b</option> option | |
| 295 on the dnsbl command line. If you use the dcc via the standard dcc | |
| 296 milter (dccm), then connections from clients that use SMTP AUTH are | |
| 297 still subject to greylisting. If you use the dcc via dccifd and this | |
| 298 milter, then connections from clients that use SMTP AUTH are never | |
| 180 | 299 subject to greylisting. As part of this per-user greylisting, you need |
| 300 to move the dnsblnogrey file from the config directory to something | |

| 341 The first check is to see if a reply message (swapping the env_from and | |

| 343 envelope from address). That check is similar to the main check | |
| 344 described below, but there is no body content to be scanned, and there | |
| 345 is no client connection ip address to be checked against DNSBLs. If | |
| 346 such a reply message would be blocked, we also block the original | |

| 108 | 629 <title>Sendmail access vs. DNSBL</title> |
| 630 <para> | |
| 631 With the standard sendmail.mc dnsbl FEATURE, the dnsbl checks may be | |
| 632 suppressed by entries in the /etc/mail/access database. For example, | |
| 633 suppose you control a /18 of address space, and have allocated some /24s | |
| 634 to some clients. You have access entries like | |
| 111 | 635 <literallayout class="monospaced"><![CDATA[ |
| 636 192.168.4 OK | |
| 637 192.168.17 OK]]></literallayout> | |
| 108 | 638 </para> |
| 639 <para> | |
| 640 to allow those clients to smarthost thru your mail server. Now if one | |
| 641 of those clients happens get infected with a virus that turns a machine | |
| 642 into an open proxy, and their 192.168.4.45 lands on the SBL-XBL, you | |
| 643 will still wind up allowing that infected machine to smarthost thru your | |
| 644 mail servers. | |
| 645 </para> | |
| 646 <para> | |
| 647 With this DNSBL milter, the sendmail access database cannot override the | |
| 648 dnsbl checks, so that machine won't be able to send mail to or thru your | |
| 649 smarthost mail server (unless the virus/proxy can use smtp-auth). | |
| 650 </para> | |
| 651 <para> | |
| 652 Using the standard sendmail features, you would add access entries to | |
| 653 allow hosts on your local network to relay thru your mail server. Those | |
| 654 OK entries in the sendmail access database will override all the dnsbl | |
| 655 checks. With this DNSBL milter, you will need to have the local users | |
| 656 authenticate with smtp-auth to get the same effect. You might find | |
| 657 <ulink | |
| 658 url="http://www.ists.dartmouth.edu/classroom/sendmail-ssl-how-to.php"> | |
| 659 these directions</ulink> helpful for setting up smtp-auth if you are on | |

| 108 | 665 <title>Performance Issues</title> |
| 666 <para> | |
| 667 Consider a high volume high performance machine running sendmail. Each | |
| 668 sendmail process can do its own dns resolution. Typically, such dns | |
| 669 resolver libraries are not thread safe, and so must be protected by some | |
| 670 sort of mutex in a threaded environment. When we add a milter to | |
| 671 sendmail, we now have a collection of sendmail processes, and a | |
| 672 collection of milter threads. | |
| 673 </para> | |
| 674 <para> | |
| 675 We will be doing a lot of dns lookups per mail message, and at least | |
| 676 some of those will take many tens of seconds. If all this dns work is | |
| 677 serialized inside the milter, we have an upper limit of about 25K mail | |
| 678 messages per day. That is clearly not sufficient for many sites. | |
| 679 </para> | |
| 680 <para> | |
| 681 Since we want to do parallel dns resolution across those milter threads, | |
| 682 we add another collection of dns resolver processes. Each sendmail | |
| 683 process is talking to a milter thread over a socket, and each milter | |
| 684 thread is talking to a dns resolver process over another socket. | |
| 685 </para> | |
| 686 <para> | |
| 687 Suppose we are processing 20 messages per second, and each message | |
| 688 requires 20 seconds of dns work. Then we will have 400 sendmail | |
| 689 processes, 400 milter threads, and 400 dns resolver processes. Of | |
| 690 course that steady state is very unlikely to happen. | |

| 697 <para> | |
| 698 The following ideas have been considered and rejected. | |
| 699 </para> | |
| 700 <para> | |
| 111 | 701 Add max_recipients setting to the context configuration. Recipients in |
| 702 excess of that limit will be rejected, and all the non-whitelisted | |
| 703 recipients will be removed. Current spammers *very* rarely send more | |
| 704 than ten recipients in a single smtp transaction, so this won't stop any | |
| 108 | 705 significant amount of spam. |
| 706 </para> | |
| 707 <para> | |
| 708 Add poison addresses to the configuration. If any recipient is | |
| 709 poison, all recipients are rejected even if they would be whitelisted, | |
| 710 and the data is rejected if sent. I have a collection of spam trap | |
| 711 addresses that would be suitable for such use. Based on my log files, | |
| 712 any mail to those spam trap addresses is rejected based on either dnsbl | |
| 713 lookups or the DCC. So this won't result in blocking any additional | |
| 714 spam. | |
| 715 </para> | |
| 716 <para> | |
| 717 Add an option to only allow one recipient if the return path is | |
| 718 empty. Based on my log files, there is no mail that violates this | |
| 719 check. | |
| 720 </para> | |
| 721 <para> | |
| 722 Reject the mail if the envelope from domain name contains any MX | |
| 723 records pointing to 127.0.0.0/8. I don't see any significant amount of | |
| 724 spam sent with such domain names. | |
