    apparently those domains are under dictionary attack by spams, try check on fashion-park.com domain on those rejected user if the user account do exist

    the ip should have been blocked in apf since the alert is sent by your BFD.

    thanks for your help, that's right all of those ip has been blocked by APF.

    and there's no username which is exist or active in that domain, and also the default was set to :fail. eventhough all spam email was rejected by dnslist_text. but the spam keep coming and cause a high load in my server.

    And I'll complain to the china spam abuse organization, btw any good idea to solve my problem :eek: :eek:

    thanks a lot :)

    didn't you install MTA level blacklist on exim? That helps a lot with attacks from blacklisted IP which your attacker is using.

    New member here, so go easy on me ;-) Is there any of banning the emails at your firewall if you are on shared servers please ?

    What I would really like to do is to automatically delete all emails from China and Russia, so that I never have to even see them.

    Any help appreciated.

    If you are on cPanel 11 with the X3 theme, go to the cPanel interface, in the Mail feature block click Account Level Filtering. You can create a filter for addresses ending in .cn or .ru and set the action to Fail with message to have the mail blocked at SMTP time.

    If you do not see this, contact your hosting provider :).

    Many, many thanks David, I've been all round the internet over the last few months trying to get success with this, with no success so far, but hopefully, this will be it.

    Ok, I've looked and it isn't there, in fact, my cPanel is cPanel X v2.6.0, but before I go to the webhosts, could you please just confirm that I should be able to do this, even if I am on shared servers and would my webhosts have any excuse for not installing this for me ?

    The helps appreciated.

    Chris.

    2.6.0 is the version of the X theme. X is an old theme (from cPanel 10 and earlier) and really should no longer be used. The X3 theme is designed for cPanel 11 and as such is recommended for use on cPanel 11 machines.

    Web hosting providers can enable/disable any functionality of our software. If you are shopping around for a host, it wouldn't hurt to ask if they have this functionality enabled and they are using X3.

    The response just received from the hosts :

    "11 is still not stable - we should wait for more stable version."

    You should go see Chirpy at http://www.configserver.com he does a cpanel service which is brilliant, he'll check over the system, install firewalls and also mailscanner if your not using it. and the pricing is bang on.

    by the way i dont work with him, just one of his customers....

    Since Chris doesn't own this system and is hosted by a third party Chirpy won't be able to do a thing, sadly (I'm a customer myself and highly recommend them). Seems his host is stuck on cPanel 10 for some reason. "It isn't stable" usually is code for "we're too lazy to go to the trouble of upgrading", though it can be complex and troublesome on boxes hosting hundreds of users.

    Chris, my advice is to ask them if they are willing to work with you at the box's firewall level by writing some custom rules for you. Most hosts will probably resist this since your blocking IPs may result in others on the box having troubles because of it. However it never hurts to ask. If not, might be time to find a new more accomodating host or even go the way of a VPS so you have total control.

    Good luck and welcome to the forums.

    Many thanks for the quick input on this - it's appreciated. The friendly welcome was appreciated as well :)

    Have I read it right, that on the link below, it's saying that the stable version won't be out until the 21st of November.

    Is a VPS easy to setup ?

    cPanel 11 is already in STABLE and has been for some time. The date you are seeing is for cPanel 11 Stage 2 entering STABLE.

    To install cPanel/WHM on a VPS is the same as installing it on a dedicated server.
