General Help & How-To / FORBIDDEN!
« on: March 14, 2006, 12:35:45 am »
Howdy,

I'm installing on a new site and when I try to go to mysite.com/mail....I get FORBIDDEN - You don't have permission to access /mail on this server...Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I am certain that my config.php database info is correct.

What else could be the problem???

Thanks for any and all help

Great!  I see them.

It'll be great to have the checkboxes, etc.  Looking forward to it.

General Help & How-To / How do I retrieve Custom Field info?
« on: October 30, 2005, 11:32:17 pm »
Hi,

I clicked on Custom Fields, added some questions I needed and created a form, which I loaded on to a webpage.  When I tested the form, the first name, last name and email address show up in the user database, but where does the rest of the information go?  The answers to the questions (info entered into the custom fields) on the form?  How do I retrieve that information?

My host allows only one MySQL database.  I am already using the database  for my rss feed.  Can I also use the same database to install ListMailPro???

Dean,

I figured out a way to get rid of them.  I set the bounce to to 1 message in 1 day and sent out an email. That didn't do it.  So I reset the bounce to 1 message in 0 days and sent out another email.  That did it!  Most of the spam addresses disappeared from my list.

Unfortunately, so did a lot of other legitimate addresses.  Some were people I know - and KNOW their email address is still good, but maybe just too full.  Oh, well, I mainly wanted to get rid of the spam addresses and it worked.  Strangely, none of the spam addresses showed up in the "Bouncing User Removed" email notifications.  I wonder why?

Dean,

The IP address is "Unknown" on all that I checked.  I'm sure it's the same for all.  

That still leaves me the task of individually deleting each one.  Is there any possible way you can give me code for checkboxes by tomorrow so I can simply check off the addresses I need to delete instead of having to delete each one separately?

A great idea, but I thought every time someone responds, they automatically get subscribed into the list. I didn't know LMP will send out an autoresponder message without subscribing someone to the list.  

If there's a way to do that, please let me know.

Dean,

How do I find out if they are all from the same IP address?

Also,  is this the custom PhpMyAdmin command?

"delete from lm_users where ipaddr = '123.123.123.123'; "

If so, where do I put it and how do I use it?

Unfortunately, I can't change the fact that this list accepts subscribers by email.  The subscribe address appears in the resource box of an article I wrote years ago which is now posted on numerous websites.  I can't even find all the places where it's posted.  I have already tried asking the webmasters to change the address on the sites I located the article, but they don't respond.  

When you offer a royalty-free article on the internet - you lose all control over it.  Yet, this is an excellent, legitimate form of free promotion that increases sales and traffic.

Would making it a double opt-in list solve the problem?

Dean,

To my horror, I discovered over 100 spam addresses in one of my LMP lists today.  Here are a few of the email addresses I found, just to give you an idea:
HQMIAkNb6N@aonehotwebdeals.com
jZT230AasbkhxsI8@aonehotwebdeals.com
Nnc0txbi5X02@aonehotwebdeals.com
NumDlF22GRuc22J1@aonehotwebdeals.com
Q5qN636iWAU@aonehotwebdeals.com
QFCN2NwlZH@aonehotwebdeals.com
d343R45H5Bs@aonehotwebdeals.com
CY1Cg22@aonehotwebdeals.com
c9wc2ecLJX121@aonehotwebdeals.com
7K437wZeNXvwd08u@aonehotwebdeals.com
Great_Stock_Picks_440@compuserve.com
remove@buysusa.com
removeme@buysusa.com
G17n70SxwtYI4@giantwebsoftware.com
Jl2cUSw93@giantwebsoftware.com
fnntqgzf2@163.net
exy0ynwwgy@yahoo.com
eu1jrmdbf@public.guangzhou.gd.cn
eqo571a@hotmail.com
K8gG1H7LXR@downwithnobody.com
list@artaddiction.com
list@artauction.net
N7kN3136@bigtimewebwizard.com
dn4egp@mbox.digsys.bg

The problem is, the way LMP is configured now, I have to sit there and Delete each one by one.  Dean, there's over 100 -- there's got to be a better way!

Please, please add the little boxes by each address so I can select which address I want to remove and remove them all by clicking on Delete once.  Otherwise, I'll go mad!

I need this function NOW.  Not in a few months or next week.  These guys are spamming from my list.  They won't stop until I get their names out of there.

General Help & How-To / Spammers getting into LMP
« on: May 28, 2004, 12:13:10 am »
Yesterday, I got a slew of returned mail from various forged spam
addresses that have my nichemarketingsecrets.com address on them.  I
even got a flame from someone demanding I take them off my list.

The spammers are somehow sending from my website.  I've found that
sometimes the route they use is by signing themselves up to my
autoresponder.

Sure enough, in checking my LMP lists, I found two email addresses
that were suspicious:
staff@nichemarketingsecrets.com
management@nichemarketingsecrets.com

I did NOT subscribemyself under those addresses.  I deleted them but
don't know if that will stop them.

The question is, LMP needs some kind of safeguard to prevent outsiders
from signing up fake names under your own websites url, such as
staff@nichemarketingsecrets.com

Or, at least the search feature needs to be able to look up the
domain name part of an email, such as anyone @ 'nichemarketingsecrets.com' and
produce all those addresses in the list so they can be removed
manually.

This is getting to be a serious problem.  My domain will be soon
blacklisted, if it's not already.  It's very, very hard to get out of
blacklisting, especially if the spammers are still using your email
address.

Here are just a few of the address they used:
aguuqk@nichemarketingsecrets.com
qneuydhk@nichemarketingsecrets.com
gsumsuevjj@nichemarketingsecrets.com
jhkbwersio@nichemarketingsecrets.com
skcbgvfyco@nichemarketingsecrets.com
ycecfsjv@nichemarketingsecrets.com  

Please give this some serious thought and see what you can do to
prevent further occurances.

Rufina
