Spam over IP Telefonie (SPIT)

Wednesday, May 23. 2007

Da sich eine Menge alter Telefonnummern in meiner Telefonanlage ansammeln, führt dies auch zu VoIP SPAM, hier ein Beispiel:

I have seen a heavy increase of rejected mails on my mailserver since Sunday:

Any thoughts...?

The long term picture of this increase looks now like this:

The upper picture is the higher resolution of the jump at beginning week 4.

There are two things visible in the statistics of rejected emails:

  1. an overall increase
  2. a jump, beginning week 4

While 1.) is still not clear to me, a plausible reason for 2.) (the heavy increase during begin week 4) is, that my backup mx went down. It looks like, that there is certain spam (or email worms) out there, which tries to connect to the backup mx first instead of the primary mx.

Maybe because the backup mx is usually not as good protected...?
