Dear Admin,

Firstly, I want to say thank you for this forum because I found the solution that I want since last month. Actually I received thousands+ of spam email from only one domain/email address with different IP address and location eveyday. Until today I cannot solve this problem. But now I found in this forum "restrict sender access", because I also using CentOS 5 with webmin. I hope this method can really solve our spam email problem. But I don't understand using "postmap /etc/postfix/sender_access" command, when I type in remote mail server window the error message show "command not found". The forum say " Type in the command below in a terminal window to create a hash file." I don't what is it mean because I am very newest to this OS and mail server. Actually now I am monitor from remote computer (Indirectly) to manage the mail server CentOS 5 using webmin. During I tested all of the stages, the spam emails and all incoming email stop for awhile so I certainly rollback all of my action, I don't mean the steps not correct actually because of I am not really familiar with this one. Can you help me please?Smile

 

Best Regards,

 

Horace

Hi Horace,

 

The command needs to be typed into the command line of the server where postfix is installed, not your workstation. You probably need to connect to your server using ssh to be able to issue that command.
