    I am running 10.3.9 server on an xserve- currently this is the setup for my mail server

    Accept SMTP relays is NOT checked, which as I understand it should force people trying to send mail to authenticate

    In localhost aliases I have all of the domains that utilize the mail server.

    SMTP is set to require authentication, but am not using SSL

    If I watch the queue using mailq, the www user will try to send out spam email to hundreds of addresses. I searched here and found that this would be an exploit on my system that has a script running.

    I grep’d www and came up with the following process

    cyrus 22314 3.0 0.1 28656 644 ?? Ss 2:09PM 0:00.01 /usr/bin/cyrus/bin/deliver -e -r www@domainonmyserver.com -m aphod

    I can end the process, but how do I locate the script or exploit that continues to start this process?

    Any help would be most appreciated, it has taken me a couple of days to get this far.
