EU down (Spammer)

[admin]

Still no response.  This is expected with this provider.

[admin]

We are back up again.  Additional measures are being taken to attempt to combat this spam problem.

EDIT:
Authenticated mail relay will remain closed for a good portion of the day

[admin]

For the time being, we have enabled the relay (via authentication) options to see if the problem returns.

[admin]

Everything is still going good with the server, so we will be removing the whitelist shortly.  Still no large numbers of outbound messages.

[admin]

Whitelist request sent.  It has been 9 hours w/o an incident, so we should be good.

[admin]

It has been 14 hours without incident, so hopefully this issue is solved.

It was taken offline a few minutes from the post again.  When it is brought back online, we will be going through all crontabs and checking them to see if there is still a cron entry lying around that is triggering this.  (It would seem so since this happens at around the same time each day.)

[admin]

Also, be sure if you are a user on this machine, that you don't send 1000's of messages per day (or at once in any single transaction/short duration).

We were able to get this turned back on about 20 minutes ago. I see one users file in queue at around the time of the suspension, so we will disable that users script.
