how to find the SPAMMER in the server?
hi,on the CPanel server getting lots of Virus attachments from specific IP 203.144.73.46. I put the IP in /etc/hosts.deny and in /etc/spammers . Restarted Exim and Httpd but still receiving junk emails from this IP at the rate of 1 email per minute.
How to block this IP?
and how to find this SPAMMER, looks like he's in the system.
The email header shows:
