Hi Whilst drowning my sorrows in the UK rain following our resounding defeat in the Eurovision song contest (Politics in Europe surely not !!) I have turned my attention to email headers. Whilst I'm quietly confident about manually analysing email headers, I'm looking for tools or web resources that will automate some of the process. There are plenty of anti-spam resources such as http://combat.uxn.com/ and http://www.spamhaus.org/ to identify spammers and there is the infamous Sam Spade for testing Open Mail Relay Agents. There are a plethora of how-to's and FAQ's about analysing headers manually. But I haven't found many resources that analyse the headers in sufficient accurate detail. Personally I would rather run a tool on my own system than put my headers through a 3rd party website but there are a few sites that seem to do it fairly well such as http://www.3dmail.com/spam/ which whilst spam focussed seems fairly comprehensive, though sadly a beta which hasn't been updated in a year. Any recommendations websites or tools would be greatly appreciated, if there is a sufficient response I will collate the information onto a new page for the website below and post a summary to this list cheers, and for the Brits have a good Bank Holiday Weekend I hope the weather is better where you are! take care -andy Taliskers Network Security Tools http://www.networkintrusion.co.uk --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thinking About Security Training?
