So I've searched around but haven't found any real solutions (in fact, there may not be any solutions). For the past week one of my virtual domains has been slammed by what appears to be a distributed spam attack. I have the validrcptto patch (http://qmail.jms1.net/patches/combined-6c5.shtml) installed - so at least I don't have 80,000 messages trying to bounce. At first it was a big deal because it assisted in maxing out my remote concurrency, but that has subsided quite a bit now - so now it's just annoying me. Is there any real solutions to deal with this? I could add the ip addresses to my iptables . . . but boy would that be a lot of ip's. Any insight would be appreciated, Matt |
