Klausimas
SuperUser skaitytojas Jake M nori žinoti, kaip kas nors galėjo išsiųsti el. Laiškus naudodamas savo asmeninį domeną:
Spammers or someone similar is sending e-mails to people using our domain name.
- The e-mails are from a user we did not create called: [email protected].
- The e-mail is to: [email protected].
- The content of the e-mail talks about a stock that is six cents but will go to fifteen cents and that people should buy it. It contains a link to Yahoo’s finance website, but I will not click it, so I am not sure if it is legitimate. We know of the e-mails because we get bounce-backs (the recipient must not exist).
What would allow someone (or a bot) to send an e-mail under our domain name? Is there anything we can do to stop this? Is this Dictionary Spamming?
Kaip kas nors tai daro ir ar yra ką galima padaryti, kad būtų galima sušvelninti padėtį?
Atsakymas
"SuperUser" autoriai Paulas ir AFH atsakė už mus. Pirma, Paulius:
The SMTP protocol does not include any controls over the From and To fields in an e-mail. They can be whatever you like provided you have authority to send e-mails using the SMTP server.
So the short answer is nothing prevents anyone from using your domain in e-mails they send. Even normal users can put whatever e-mail address they like in their e-mail settings.
Spammers routinely use valid domain names as From addresses to avoid being blocked.
While you cannot stop someone from sending e-mails with your domain name, you can help e-mail servers around the world understand if e-mails sent from your domain name actually originated from you and are legitimate e-mails, so that any others can be discarded as spam.
SPF
One way is to use SPF. This is a record that goes into DNS and lets the Internet know what servers are permitted to send e-mails on behalf of your domain. It looks like this:
ourdomain.com.au. IN TXT “v=spf1 mx ip4:123.123.123.123 -all”
This says that the only valid sources of e-mail for ourdomain.com.au are the MX servers – the server defined as the recipient of e-mails for the domain, and another server at 123.123.123.123. E-mail from any other server should be considered spam.
Most e-mail servers will check for the presence of this DNS record and act accordingly.
DKIM
While SPF is easy to set up, DKIM takes a little more effort and should be implemented by your e-mail server administrator. If you send your e-mail via an ISP e-mail server, they will often have methods for quick setup of DKIM.
DKIM works similarly to SSL certificates. A public/private key pair is generated. The private key is known only to the e-mail server, and it will sign any outgoing e-mails.
The public key is published using DNS. So any server receiving e-mails marked as coming from your domain can check that the e-mail was signed by retrieving the public key and checking the signature in the e-mails. If no signature is present, or it is incorrect, the e-mail can be considered spam.
Vykdant AFH atsakymą:
An e-mail can contain any Reply-To address you choose. Some e-mail servers will send undeliverable notifications back to the Reply-To address rather than the originator. Online mail handlers like Gmail require you to validate any Reply-To address you use when composing online, but there is no such restriction when using a remote client with POP3/IMAP. And if you run your own e-mail server, you can probably also fake the From address.
