Stopping Spammers Who Exploit Secondary MX?
drteknikal asks: "I'm the admin for a small law firm. We use our ISP as our secondary mx. We are receiving spam from our secondary mx even when our primary has been continually available. We suspect that spammers are routing to our secondary MX to bypass the DNS-based spam filtering on our primary. After examining some of the traffic, our ISP agrees. Neither of us sees an immediate solution, given the purpose and function of secondary MX. They already restrict relaying to hosts on their network. Has anyone else seen this? Does anyone have suggestions on how an ISP could secure their mail exchangers without interfering with the functionality required to function as secondary MX for an external domain?"
