Hello MX!

Hello MX!

Comments 3 comments

A volte capita, dopo aver lanciato un HELO ad un MX, di ricevere risposte veramente simpatiche, carine, o stupide e inutili, comunque molto lontane dal default. Lo stesso, a volte, succede dopo il QUIT.

E’ curioso notare come gli amministratori di queste strutture si divertano a studiare queste risposte, quasi come fosse un must alla pari dell’antispam nel processo di configurazione di un mailserver.

Mi sembra quindi il caso di farne una sorta di rassegna di seguito:

Postini, il noto servizio di Google, appare molto freddo e professionale, mettendo subito in chiaro chi comanda:

 

mx-test:~# telnet google.com.s9a1.psmtp.com 25
Trying 74.125.148.10…
Connected to google.com.s9a1.psmtp.com.
Escape character is ‘^]’.
220 Postini ESMTP 213 y6_26_2c0 ready.  CA Business and Professions Code Section 17538.45 forbids use of this system for unsolicited electronic mail advertisements.
HELO mx-test.grg-web.eu
250 Postini says hello back
QUIT
221 Catch you later
Connection closed by foreign host.

Quando mi presento (HELO mx-test.grg-web.eu) però si calma e mi saluta tranquillamente. Anche alla chiusura, vengo salutato amichevolmente.
L’MX di Youtube appare meno cattivo ma ancora più freddo:
mx-test:~# telnet sjl-mbox1.sjl.youtube.com 25
Trying 208.65.153.154…
Connected to sjl-mbox1.sjl.youtube.com.
Escape character is ‘^]’.
220 sjl-mbox1.sjl.youtube.com ESMTP Postfix
HELO mx-test.grg-web.eu
250 sjl-mbox1.sjl.youtube.com
QUIT
221 Bye
Connection closed by foreign host.
mx-test:~#
GMail si dimostra subito sottomesso, dichiarando di essere “al mio servizio” e blaterando un qualche codice nella sua lingua:
mx-test:~# telnet gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com 25
Trying 209.85.129.27…
Connected to gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com.
Escape character is ‘^]’.
220 mx.google.com ESMTP 13si5734471fks.30

250 mx.google.com at your service
QUIT
221 2.0.0 closing connection 13si5734471fks.30
Connection closed by foreign host.

cPanel invece, dopo avermi spiegato chiaramente che non posso usarlo per inviare SPAM, mi sbugiarda facendo notare che non sono chi dico di essere (mx-test.grg-web.eu) ma ec2-79-125-117-117.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com. Da notare, come GMail si dimentica di salutarmi quando me ne vado:
mx-test:~# telnet mx1.cpanel.net 25
Trying 208.74.121.68…
Connected to mx1.cpanel.net.
Escape character is ‘^]’.
220-mx1.cpanel.net ESMTP Exim 4.69 #1 Sun, 25 Apr 2010 04:04:28 -0500
220-We do not authorize the use of this system to transport unsolicited,

Microsoft Live Mail si comporta in modo molto simile:
mx-test:~# telnet mx1.hotmail.com 25
Trying 65.54.188.72…
Connected to mx1.hotmail.com.
Escape character is ‘^]’.
220 bay0-mc1-f17.Bay0.hotmail.com Sending unsolicited commercial or bulk e-mail to Microsoft’s computer network is prohibited. Other restrictions are found at http://privacy.msn.com/Anti-spam/.

Mi fa notare che non posso inviare SPAM, e mi dice in tono minaccioso quali saranno le conseguenze in caso di una eventuale violazione. Appena mi presento mi saluta, ma si dimentica di farlo quando me ne vado.
Molto nella norma, appare invece Yahoo, che va diretto al punto saltando i convenevoli:
mx-test:~# telnet a.mx.mail.yahoo.com 25
Trying 67.195.168.31…
Connected to a.mx.mail.yahoo.com.
Escape character is ‘^]’.
220 mta181.mail.ac4.yahoo.com ESMTP YSmtp service ready

QUIT
221 mta181.mail.ac4.yahoo.com

Simpatico invece GMX, che continua a ripetere il suo nome come se quasi non sentisse il resto. Non mi saluta:
mx-test:~# telnet mx0.gmx.net 25
Trying 213.165.64.100…
Connected to mx0.gmx.net.
Escape character is ‘^]’.
220 mx0.gmx.net GMX Mailservices ESMTP {mx061}

AOL prima di farmi parlare mette in chiaro le regole del gioco. Non mi saluta all’inizio ma solo all’uscita quasi come se volesse mandarmi via:
mx-test:~# telnet mailin-01.mx.aol.com 25
Trying 205.188.146.193…
Connected to mailin-01.mx.aol.com.
Escape character is ‘^]’.

Facebook, invece, è educatissimo:
mx-test:~# telnet mx.sf2p.tfbnw.net 25
Trying 69.63.176.71…
Connected to mx.sf2p.tfbnw.net.
Escape character is ‘^]’.

RackSpace tenta di fregarmi con un antiquato Greet-Pause, ma poi mi saluta:
mx-test:~# telnet mx1.sat.rackspace.com 25
Trying 64.39.1.223…
Connected to mx1.sat.rackspace.com.
Escape character is ‘^]’.
HELO mx-test.grg-web.eu

Inbox, infine, “fa il figo” sbandierando un server SMTP fatto in casa, un numero di versione che non finisce più e ilk nome del suo creatore (MatriX):
mx-test:~# telnet inc.inbox.com 25
Trying 64.135.83.90…
Connected to inc.inbox.com.
Escape character is ‘^]’.
