Spam problem

[mbaboo]

Hi,

I have a user who is getting 25,000 spam messages a day. I've set up Spam Assassin but some of the spam is still getting through. What can I do with DirectAdmin to try to make the mail manageable? They still want to keep their domain name and all the existing mailbox names even though it is riddled with spam.

Are you using SpamBlocker?

No I'm not using SpamBlocker. I assume it's not part of the standard intall. Is there a HOW-TO?

SpamBlocker is part of the standard install. It's the exim configuration file that is used to proces your email but you have to enable it for a domain by adding the domain name to the file /etc/virtual/use_rbl_domains.

If you read the header of the file /etc/exim.conf you'll find much more information about what you can do with SpamBlocker.
