Who is "you"? Can you configure your mailer for proper attribution, please?
Not sure what you mean?
He means that your mailer starts messages with "... YOU wrote", even when it is sending to a mailing list.
The idea is to save the DSL cap from being blown by un-needed offshore connections.
All incoming packets will count against your data cap, regardless of whether or not your machine accepts them.
True, but if the ports are stealthed then only the initial scan will be counted and no further traffic will come from the offending party.
If you want an apache-only solution, you can do
order deny, allow deny from all allow from .nz
in a <Location> block, but that will mean that people in NZ whose dns returns anything other than .nz won't be able to get to it. Likewise machines with a .nz might actually be located overseas.
I can live with that thanks, as 99% of the people who will need to access the site will be from xtra, ihug or paradise. Interesting the bit about the overseas hosting, as far as my cap is concerned if it is a .nz I concider that national traffic and it is IHUGS problem to filter that out from my international traffic.
