Ban email addresses in ListMail Pro?
« Reply #15 on: October 10, 2007, 05:34:35 pm »
I don't recommend filtering based on referring URL because it can be omitted or faked by some browsers.

You can try this, which means "if no referrer, exit":
Code: [Select]
if(!$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'])) exit();

http:// or .html

Thanks dean.

That'll work.

From the posting before, is there a way to block user3 (or any user field) when a http:// string or even .html string was found in the submission?

Yes, there is:
Code: [Select]
if(strstr($user3,".html") || strstr($user3,"http:")) exit();
If your server support it you may prefer "stristr" which is a case-insensitive search.

Here's a sample of the above script in ACTION:

http://imagesearchscript.com/dl

Try to sign up with a hotmail or yahoo email and see how this works. You can modify the above to suit your needs. I tend to be a little fierce on my approach but it keeps 'most' spammers away  - ticks them off actually -
while some get a chuckle. Some would never sign up weeding themselves out for me.

P.S. - I've tried to include most of the disposable or temporary emails available. The ones that spammers use only to get what they want and disappear. Since I'm trying to build a list, it makes no sense to send emails to people that will never read them. I've had LMP for years now and love it. I'm looking for a better looking captcha so if you have one and you can send over the set up exactly, I'd love to see it.

Blocking IP Addresses
« Reply #19 on: April 02, 2009, 03:59:55 am »
I'm trying to block specific IP addresses as I'm being inundated by spammers. Will the following work? And does it slow down the sign up process? Anyone here know? Also wanted to find out if there was a way to have an HTML page displayed to the banned user, but I don't know how to code that within the following:

Code: [Select]
include("./config.php");
include("./admin.php");
if($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']=='10.36.107.2') exit('You may not subscribe.');

Ban email addresses in ListMail Pro?
« Reply #20 on: April 03, 2009, 05:28:59 pm »
Quote from: "DW"
Klaus,

This is not yet a part of the program but there are some simple modifications that can be added to signup.php to prevent certain emails from subscribing.  I fear that you may be pulled into a cat-and-mouse game by this troublemaker, however, as there are always more illegitimate addresses they will be able to find and add.

Immediately following the original LMP "include" lines at the top of signup.php
Code: [Select]
include("./config.php");
include("./admin.php");

Try adding:
Code: [Select]
if(strpos($email,'service@paypal.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'bademail@paypal.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'@baddomain.com') !== false
) exit('This email address may not subscribe.');

I will be implementing the ability to ban users in the very near future.

Regards


This is one email address you definitely want to ban http://10minutemail.com/ by using the following:

Code: [Select]
if(strpos($email,'@bsnow.net') !== false
) exit('This email address may not subscribe. This email address has a 10 minute expiry. We do not spam, however we do require real email addresses from our members.');


I'm going to search for disposable email addresses and add them all.
If anyone knows of such sites that offer this service please post them here to help out other users. If I find a lot of them I will post a master list at a later date.

Hi All, what I've done to eliminate the spamming was to check the box: confirmatin email, double opt in. This is on the config. page under welcome & configuration., Then yo only get a real subscriber. I was getting lts per day and this step eliminated it completely.

My problem now is that my followups and solo emails are not being sent or only partially sent. Any feedback on that? I ran 2 test, for SMPT & bounce.cgi, and I received 2 notifications that everything is configured correctly.

Thanks,
crystarot, (Ronnie)
