Hi, i will like to know if i can implement Snort in my network to prevent spam mail in my mail server. Can i get information/links to see some example or how to go about it. Thanks,
snort is a network traffic sniffer... it is the wrong tool for the job of blocking spam... you would be better off with a prefiltering process that handles spam before it gets to your actual mail server... either that or enable your mail server's own spam detection and blocking capabilities... -- NOTE: No off-list assistance is given without prior approval. *Please keep mailing list traffic on the list* unless private contact is specifically requested and granted. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Snort-users mailing list Snort-users () lists sourceforge net Go to this URL to change user options or unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/snort-users Snort-users list archive: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=snort-users Please visit http://blog.snort.org to stay current on all the latest Snort news!
