hi all

I am receiving emails from many servers saying that: this ip (from a  
customer) is trying to attacking one of our servers.

Is it appropriate to filter ssh, telnet, and smtp from my customers,  
or just forward the message to my customer contact persons?

I suspect that your customer is compromised and you should put them
in a walled garden until they fix the problem.  Look at traffic
flows first however.

Thanks in advance..
