Log headers of rejected mail, how to do?

HCL Domino Domino Forum

Is there a way to log headers of rejected mail ???

I ask this because out spam filter is outsourced but we still get random generated emails (like abcde@domain) to our domain, which are of course rejected. But I would like to prevent SMTP connections to been setup for this kind of spamming. However I need to know more about the messages and therefore need the headers.

Thanks,

Matthijs

One way could be to set the notes.ini SMTPDebug=2 (set config SMTPDebug=2 in the console) and capture the protocol data from the log?

You might want to try SMTPDebug=3 and perhaps you need SMTPDebugIO also - have a look here:http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=463&uid=swg27003007
