I’m having a problem with spammers using my server to relay spam. I thought I had it fixed with my main.cf (code below). But apparently I did not. The from email on the spam is not any email in my system and the only reason thousands of emails didn’t go out is because I use sendinblue and it will only send out 300 emails a day then shut me off. I tried shutting down ports yesterday to see if that helped but it did not so I don’t understand how or where they’re getting in. After I changed the main.cf it stopped till last night but I guess that was a fluke… Also in the HELO section, if I have it as is I cannot send email from my Outlook 2013. It will spit a 504 5.2.2 error but once I remove reject_non_fqdn_helo_hostname, reject_invalid_helo_hostname, it’ll allow Outlook.
