Spam e-mails

BurimTahiraj

We have enabled SMPT Proxy in our UTM SG 430 firmware 9.4 but we are still receiving some SPAM e-mails. The antispam on the UTM is configured mostly with default options, any idea what could we add to the default config for antispam so that we could get a better protection from those obvious SPAM e-mails.

Maybe adding Extra RBL would help, if so what would be the list of those RBLs to add?

Thanks.

    Often, people incorrectly consider emails that they inadvertently signed up for as spam.  Sometimes it's a list you agreed to be on, and that list is being sold to multiple senders.  You can likely opt-out of the vast majority of such emails.  Usually, you need to unsubscribe both from the specific sender and from the list - usually different entities.

    Hi Burim,

    Greetings.

    I request you to re-check you Email Protection configuration from this link :

    https://www.sophos.com/en-us/support/knowledgebase/119278.aspx

    I suggest you to use 'Advance Anti Spam' options which can be found in Email Protection > Anti Spam.

    Adding extra RBL can also help, we can provide you country based RBL lists.

    Hope that helps:)

    Thanks

    Thank you all for your replies.

    I don't think this is a configuration problem because at the end there is not much options you can play around for Antispam in Sophos UTM. Sophos Mail Appliacne offers a much better protection since it has a lot more options for Antispam. Not sure why Sophos did not add more to UTM Antispam, at least half of the options offered in Mail Appliance would help.

    I will try adding the RBL list you guys posted and see what happens in the next days.

    Thank you.
