Hi,
I have detected abuse from my directadmin servers. (multiple)
Somehow it seems possible to send emails from an account, but i'm unable to detect how they are doing this. I can find the sent mails in the email usage statistics, but it doesn't show me any details.
From the abuse messages I get i can see that they use the HELO domain name to authenticate:
Would this mean the spammers somehow got my userlist from my servers? Because it looks like they are able to authenticate successfully on the domain.
The only way they could have gotten this is by an exploit in directadmin, but i'm unaware of any.
Thomas.
