Checkpoint Flaw
by Viktor Steinmann 29 Nov '05

29 Nov '05

Hi all We've found a flaw in the Checkpoint SecureClient NGX, which makes it a "not-really-secure Client"... Does anyone on this list have a direct contact to Checkpoint Quality Control, so I don't have to go the long and hard way of explaining the flaw to 10 different people at our reseller...? If yes, tell them to contact me offlist, please. (I will of course open a case at our reseller anyway, just to prove, that resellers are usually not very helpful in very technical cases...) :-) Cheers, Viktor

RE: [swinog] Check AOL's RBL?
by Ladu, Daniele 28 Nov '05

28 Nov '05

As i know trough my contact with AOL last week, they don't have any public list that can be queried for blacklisted IPs. If you wanna know, if a particular IP is listed, send a mail to: ipconfirm(a)mailtest.mx.aol.com If you receive the 554 Error Message, then your IP is listed. You can also use telnet to check if your IP is listed: telnet to postmaster.aol.com and try to manually send a mail. (http://postmaster.aol.com/tools/telnet.html) But hey, the best thing you can do is to call AOL Postmaster service: 001-888-212-5537 Enjoy the nice "Roboter" voices from the operators.... ;-) Daniele Ladu PS: I can reccomend also to use the Feedback Loop Tool from AOL, where you can receive complaints about Spam of your defined IP Range: http://postmaster.aol.com/tools/fbl.html -----Original Message----- From: swinog-bounces(a)lists.swinog.ch [mailto:swinog-bounces@lists.swinog.ch] On Behalf Of Daniel Kamm Sent: Montag, 28.

"oe" & Switch.ch
by Olivier Mueller 25 Nov '05

25 Nov '05

According to today's NetzwocheTicker and http://www.switch.ch/about/news.html?id=112 : "At the request of the internet community in Switzerland, SWITCH is adding the letter "œ" to the range of characters permitted in domain names ending in .ch and .li." Interesting, because as mentioned in the news itself, "œ cannot be typed in directly, since it is not even available on French keyboards" (cf. http://www.ibt.ca/images/AZERTY_1.jpg). And it's also not on our swiss-french/german keyboards. So *who* will use that? :) (ok, it's also the case for many of the others chars listed under https://nic.switch.ch/reg/staticHtmlView.action?site=faqs/idn&navKey=info.s… ) Just wondering: who from the "internet community" asked for that? I guess this person is probably be around on Swinog list, so he/she could explain us ... :-) And what if the "internet community" were asking for cheaper .ch/.li domains (for example for Fr. 10.-/year) or to remove the "minimum length three characters" limitation? :) regards & have a nice snowy week-end! Olivier

Autoresponder
by Michael Naef 15 Nov '05

15 Nov '05

Hello all, First of all, I'm not to well known on this list although I'm reading it for some time now. For this I probably shouldn't be ranting arround here. But one thing I keep *wondering* and annoying about is the fact that the swiss networking elite seems not to be able to configure their mailers and mail facilities to correctly and politely interfer with a mailinglist. OK, its requires skills and of course some technical magic to configure something as complex as a mailclient correctly. But for all those who are unwilling or unable to fullfill this job on their own there *is* in fact a solution to this problem. It is (astoundingly enough) possible to use more than one email account for exchangeing electronic mail. So I dare to kindly ask those unable to go without something evil like an *autoresponder* to switch their mailinglist subscriptions to another address where they do not need to inform the senders about their holidays? For those having read this far: Thank you. To all atoresponders: Shut up! cheers, Michi (don't miss the ;) despite all wigging) -- This message is intended for the named addressee(s) only. If you are not the intended recipient, or if you otherwise feel like it, please print this message in 18 pt Comics MS (Unix users: clean is OK) and eat it up imediately.

swiss jurisprudence regarding spam

at last: http://www.vpb.admin.ch/deutsch/doc/69/69.106.html very short summary of more than 20 pages of legal talk: spamming infringes swiss data protection law. or in german, copied from the decision: (DSG: Datenschutzgesetz) - Die Zustellung von unverlangter E-Mail-Werbung an unbekannte und wahllos zusammengestellte Adressen, welche im Internet gesammelt wurden, stellt eine widerrechtliche Datenbearbeitung im Sinne von Art. 12 Abs. 2 Bst. a in Verbindung mit Art. 4 DSG dar (E. 5.1-5.7). - Aus der Wirtschaftsfreiheit fliesst kein Rechtfertigungsgrund gemäss Art. 13 Abs. 1 DSG; insbesondere liegt kein überwiegendes privates Interesse der bearbeitenden Person vor (E. 5.8). - Einzig die ausdrückliche vorherige Einwilligung der Betroffenen wäre geeignet, bei Massenversand von E-Mail-Werbung eine widerrechtliche Persönlichkeitsverletzung im Sinne des DSG auszuschliessen (E. 5.9). - Eine «Opt-Out»-Möglichkeit in unangeforderten Werbe-E-Mails hebt demnach die Rechtswidrigkeit ihres Versandes nicht auf. Hingegen wäre sie geeignet, in Werbe-Mails, die zulässigerweise versandt werden, die Ausübung des Selbstbestimmungsrechts der Betroffenen bezüglich künftiger weiterer Datenbearbeitung zu unterstützen (E. 6). christa

E-mail firewall for an ISP
by Stanislav Sinyagin 07 Nov '05

07 Nov '05

Hi all, does anyone have any experience with e-mail protection appliances? Ideally this would be a standalone box, serving as an ISP's SMTP relay, with the following functions: -- Detect spam coming from the ISP's customers, and automatically throttle the bandwidth or block SMTP for a given IP address. -- Alert the administrators when the spam or viruses are originating from ISP's network -- Manage the incoming email, and throttle the bandwidth for external IP addresses that send too many SMTP requests -- Built-in antivirus would be a plus -- management web interface with privilege levels -- interesting would be to have per-user spam filtering settings for incoming email... Your advice in choosing or avoiding vendors and solutions is very welcome. Also there should be service providers that outsource such activities. Would be great to know the names as well. thanks in advance, stan
