Handy anti-worm rules for procmail users - 20/09/2003 12:40

With the latest worm swamping everyone, I thought those of you who use procmail might find this useful. I came across it the other day, it contains a whole bunch of procmail mumbo jumbo (is there a program with a worst config file than procmail) that I don't understand, but it appears to be very effective at spotting these worms.

Ah yes, good point. Thankfully I find I very rarely have to change anything in the sendmail config file, it is a case of set it up initially and leave it.

I regularly go in and tweak my procmail receipes though and that file I posted is perfect example of what a knightmare it is...
