    Yes I thought it should of worked (that's why I was scratching my head). I'm glad that you have it sorted.

    Yes it looks like you might be out of luck :(

    Resolved How to Block SMTP AUTH attempts using a RBL

    Looking at the postfix documentation you will have to set smtpd_delay_reject = no also.

    Resolved How to Block SMTP AUTH attempts using a RBL

    Are you sure that you didn't just revert your changes by editing the RBL's in the Plesk interface? Plesk used to have the RBLs listed before the permit_sasl_authenticated and people complained that they could not send email when listed so they changed the order around.

    Resolved How to Block SMTP AUTH attempts using a RBL

    Try changing the order placing reject_rbl_client BEFORE permit_sasl_authenticated smtpd_client_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, reject_rbl_client b.barracudacentral.org, reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org, permit_sasl_authenticated

    Resolved How to Block SMTP AUTH attempts using a RBL

    Like I mentioned before you should be restricting access to outgoing ports 587 and 465 on the firewall anyway.

    Resolved How to Block SMTP AUTH attempts using a RBL

    @ChrisMonder Did you look at the articles? It supports pregreet DNSBLs with the postscreen_dnsbl_sites option. You can set the RBL weights so that Postscreen would reject the SMTP client.

    Resolved How to Block SMTP AUTH attempts using a RBL

    I've used it in the past on some servers. I only recommend it for advanced users though because some of Plesk's older command line tools (like mchk) don't like heavy postfix customization so they break. Postscreen is fine as long as you don't enable any of the "deep protocol" tests. If you...

    Resolved How to Block SMTP AUTH attempts using a RBL

    > I have a really good RBL that I checked a lot of times vs attacker IP's and my client IP's and it's 99% exact with the attacker IP's, so, yes a RBL will work if there's a way to block the SMTP AUTH using it. Use postscreen then as this is what it was designed for...

    Resolved How to Block SMTP AUTH attempts using a RBL

    @ChrisMonder Well if its a directed attack then an RBL isn't going to help you anyway. Usually what I do in this case: 1. Raise the perm deny limit in Juggernaut -> Settings -> Firewall -> General Settings to something like 20,000 so that attacking IP addresses are not rotated out. 2. Lower...

    Resolved How to Block SMTP AUTH attempts using a RBL

    @ChrisMonder One last thing I would recommend. The default Juggernaut SMTP_AUTH trigger under Settings -> Login Failure Blocking is set to 5 failures which is fairly loose. If you are under active attack I recommend lowering that to 1 or 2. That way you should be able to block the attack a lot...

    Resolved How to Block SMTP AUTH attempts using a RBL

    @ChrisMonder why don't you do the second option that I recommended (Disabling SMTP AUTH on port 25)? To disable SMTP auth on port 25 1. Edit your /etc/postfix/master.cf From: smtp inet n - n - - smtpd To: smtp inet n - n - -...

    Resolved How to Block SMTP AUTH attempts using a RBL

    @ChrisMonder another thing that you can do is disable SMTP AUTH on port 25 in postfix then use Juggernaut Firewall to only allow access to the submission port 587 from countries that send mail though your server (Allow Countries to Port Settings). This will block most attacks.

    Resolved How to Block SMTP AUTH attempts using a RBL

    @ChrisMonder make sure that you enable Netblock Blocking in Juggernaut Firewall. That way the login failure daemon will ban networks that are attacking you repeatedly (even if they are rotating IP addresses on the same netblocks)...
