1 ECE Mail System Overview Pablo J. Rebollo ECE Network Operations Center
2 Agenda Overview of ECE mail system How mail system works SPAM!!! ECE mail system statistics and examples Problems References
3 Mail system Previous server Sun UltraEnterprise X UltraSparc 300 MHz 2 Gigabytes of RAM 10 x 9 Gigabytes hard drives (SCSI) Solaris Postfix (SMTP) Inboxes in MBOX format UW IMAP, and QPopper (POP3) Text file for user information (/etc/passwd)
4 Mail System Current server Dell PowerEdge X Intel Xeon 3.2 GHz with HT 4 gigabytes of RAM 2 X 36 GB (SCSI), RAID 1 for OS 14 x 73 GB (SCSI), RAID 5 for users, web pages, etc Linux Postfix (SMTP, SMTPS, SASL, TLS) Cyrus (IMAP, POP3, TLS, maildir inboxes) LDAP for user information
5 Mail System (cont.) Current system Over 1,400 inboxes Over 40,000 messages received per week Over 10,000 messages received are SPAM Over 10,000 messages sent per week Additional services Mail gateway (Spamassassin, ClamAV) Greylisting (OpenBSD spamd)
6 Mail System (cont.)
7 How mail system works User sends an with a client The client sends the to the designated SMTP server. The SMTP server look for the MX record for the recipient domain. The SMTP server sends the to the MX. The recipient domain mail server receives the message and store it into the user INBOX. Finally, the user reads the new message with an client using IMAP or POP3.
8 How mail system works (cont.) dns.prt.net mail.prt.net 2 dns pablo@mydomain.com 1 smtp 3 smtp 4 IMAP/POP ` PRT Client user@prt.net Internet 1) Client sends the messages to mail.prt.net (SMTP) 2) mail.prt.net query the MX record for mydomain.com (DNS) 3) mail.prt.net send the message to mydomain.com (SMTP) 4) Recipient reads the message (IMAP/POP) mydomain Client pablo@mydomain.com `
9 SPAM!!! The biggest problem is SPAM. Users don t want to receive SPAM. SPAM consumes bandwidth and other resources. To reduce the amount of spam, several techniques has been implemented. Mailgateway (Spamassassin, ClamAV, FuzzyOcr) OpenBSD spamd for greylisting and tarpitting.
10 Techniques to deal with SPAM Spamassassin OSS used to identify SPAM by assigning scores based on several tests. If the score exceeds a threshold, then the message is tagged as SPAM (***SPAM***). The software accepts custom made tests. ClamAV OSS used to identify viruses. The system downloads new definitions every hour. Messages with viruses aren t delivered to users. FuzzyOCR OSS who perform OCR (optical character recognition) to images contained in mail messages. This technique can hit system CPU.
11 Techniques to deal with SPAM Greylisting In name, as well as operation, greylisting is related to whitelisting and blacklisting. What happen is that each time a given mailbox receives an from an unknown contact (ip), that mail is rejected with a "try again later"-message.this, in the short run, means that all mail gets delayed at least until the sender tries again - but this is where spam loses out! Most spam is not sent out using RFC compliant MTAs; the spamming software will not try again later. (from: greylisting.org) SPF (Sender Policy Framework) The idea is to advertise the authorized mail server for a specific domain. This is achieved by publishing a TXT record for a domain. Postfix SASL This option force users to be authenticated first when sending to external accounts (relaying) when they aren t connected to ECE facilities.
12 Stats & Examples Mailgateway Statistics
13 Stats & Examples (cont.) Spamd Statistics
14 Stats & Examples (cont.) DNS Query
15 Stats & Examples (cont.) Spamassassing report Content analysis details: (14.5 points, 5.0 required) pts rule name description EXTRA_MPART_TYPE Header has extraneous Content-type:...type= entry 2.0 DATE_IN_FUTURE_03_06 Date: is 3 to 6 hours after Received: date 0.5 HTML_40_50 BODY: Message is 40% to 50% HTML 0.0 HTML_MESSAGE BODY: HTML included in message 4.3 BAYES_99 BODY: Bayesian spam probability is 99 to 100% 3.8 LONGWORDS Long string of long words 3.0 DC_PNG_UNO_LARGO Message contains a single large inline gif -0.1 AWL AWL: From: address is in the auto white-list
16 Problems The most common problem is with false positives. To deal with this kind of problem is important to have users feedback. Another problem can be delivery delays due to greylisting process. This could be solved by having a static whitelist.
