Filed under: How To Detect Spammers From exim_mainlog 

A great list of useful utilities to analyze your exim_mainlog file for spammers.

Locating multiple IP address logins for mail accounts

grep “A=courier_login” /var/log/exim_mainlog | sed -e ‘s#H=.* \[##’ -e ‘s#\]:[0-9]*##’ | awk ‘{print $5,$6}’ | sort | uniq | awk ‘{print $1}’ | uniq -c | awk ‘{ if ($1 > 1) print $0}’

If you see that you have a lot of users that have mail logins from multiple unique IP addresses you can run the following command to get a look at exactly what IPs they’re connecting from:

grep “A=courier_login” /var/log/exim_mainlog | sed -e ‘s#H=.* \[##’ -e ‘s#\]:[0-9]*##’ | awk ‘{print $5,$6}’ | sort | uniq -c

grep “535 Incorrect” /var/log/exim_mainlog | awk -F”set_id=” ‘{print $2}’ | sort | uniq -c | sort -n

Find IP address causing incorrect logins

grep “535 Incorrect” /var/log/exim_mainlog | grep user@example.com | awk ‘{print $1,substr($9,2)}’ | cut -d] -f1 | uniq -c

Use the following command to find all the IP addresses the account has been relaying mail with: grep "<= user01@example.com" /var/log/exim_mainlog | grep "Melt Fat Naturally" | grep -o "\[[0-9.]*\]" | sort -n | uniq -c | sort -n http://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/email/exim/locate-spam-activity-by-subject-with-exim
