NODE 76100f88Remailer cdodhner@indirect.com DOWN (temp)

My sysadmin, due to some sort of security concern, has decreed that
.forward files shall not be able to call any execution of code other than
certain designated filters. Thus my remailer rolled over and died and lost
three days of my mail. My sysadmin is helping me devise a workaround now
so my remailer can be the exception to the rule, or bypass the rule
entirely without compromiseing security of the site. I'll post to the list
when it's back up.
(btw, I'm off the cypherpunks list now, on cp-request)
Happy Hunting, -Chris

Yup, there was a recent CERT advisory on sendmail; see
comp.mail.sendmail for the details on the attack, but basically you
can jam nasty things down the throat of the sendmail "program" mailer
over the net..
I'm surprised more remailers haven't been hit by this problem...
