Our mail administration group recently implemented blocking of all incoming messages from domains that cannot be resolved via reverseDNS, for purposes of spam prevention. Of course, there are quite a number of legitimate business contacts who do not have rDNS properly configured. Assuming that the rDNS criterion remains, the question becomes one of who will notify and/or educate the sender(s) about this issue. The only time-efficient way that I can think of to do this would be to have instructions and references in the body of the bounce message itself. Anyone tried that? Results? Other suggestions? Thanks in advance. Scott --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Computer Forensics Training at the InfoSec Institute.
