Spam problem

Post by listvan »

We are facing some difficulties receiving some spams all the time with some attachments

It seams like it was sent from our domain but it` not. In the header of the mail there other ip address:
Received-SPF: none (mail.bungalow.eu: muniupala.go.cr does not designate permitted sender hosts)
Received: from pymes.ice.cr ([201.191.203.156]) by mail.bungalow.eu with

Your DNS entry has a SPF record but you don't seem to be checking. SPF would fail that email that is supposedly coming from you as the email server it came from would not be authorised to send for your domain.

Check SMTP Properties under Sender Policy Framework to enable, and then set a filter to quarantine emails that fail SPF checking.

HI Brett Rowbotham

My Sender Policy Framework was already activated with the option:
"Reject emails from connection which fail Spf.+
"Dont check connection from local Ip addess"

Just created a global filter if the Spf test return result mathing "fail" = copy message to quarantine"
Hope I did well.
