MAIL SPOOFING

What is Needed?
All that you need is a generic telnet client. Local echo should be turned
on so you can see what you type. Also, it is important to note that SMTP
servers do not handle backspaces, so you must type everything correctly.

How do I Start?
Telnet to port 25 of your target SMTP server (more on SMTP servers
selection below). The server should respond with a generic welcome message.
You will type HELO domain.name. Use any domain name you wish as most
servers do not check the name against the IP you are telneting from. Type
MAIL FROM: . This is where the message will appear to be
from. Next, type RCPT TO: . This specifies who will
receive the message. Type DATA and type the body of your message. To send
the message, enter a line with only a period. Type QUIT to disconnect.

Yahoo! Mail Settings


Unlike Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail offers standard POP3 access for receiving emails incoming through your
Yahoo mailbox, by using your favorite email client software. To setup your email client for working with
your Yahoo account, you need to select the POP3 protocol and use the following mail server settings:
Yahoo Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop.mail.yahoo.com (port 110)
Yahoo Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) - smtp.mail.yahoo.com (port 25)

Google GMail Settings


The Google GMail service offers email client access for retrieving and sending emails through your
Gmail account. However, for security reasons, GMail uses POP3 over an SSL connection, so make sure
your email client supports encrypted SSL connections.
Google Gmail Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop.gmail.com (SSL enabled, port 995)
Outgoing Mail Server - use the SMTP mail server address provided by your local ISP

Lycos Mail Settings


The Lycos Mail Plus service allows you to use POP3 and SMTP servers for accessing your Lycos mailbox.
Lycos Mail Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop.mail.lycos.com (port 110)
Outgoing Mail Server - smtp.mail.lycos.com or use your local ISP SMTP mail server

AOL Mail Settings


The AOL email service is a web based system, designed for managing your AOL mailbox via HTTP IMAP
access. Unlike Hotmail, you can use any email client to access your AOL mailbox, as long as it supports
the IMAP protocol.
AOL Incoming Mail Server (IMAP) - imap.aol.com (port 143)
AOL Outgoing Mail Server - smtp.aol.com or use your local ISP SMTP mail server

Netscape Internet Service Mail Settings


The Netscape e-mail system is web-based, which means you can access their e-mail from any Internet
connection. Netscape Internet Service also supports AOL® Communicator, Microsoft® Outlook,
Microsoft® Outlook Express, and other POP3 e-mail software. The outgoing mail server needs SSL
support, so make sure your email client software supports SSL connections over the SMTP protocol.
Netscape Internet Service Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop.3.isp.netscape.com (port 110)
Netscape Internet Service Outgoing Mail Server - smtp.isp.netscape.com (port 25, using a
secure SSL connection)

Hey, for hotmail, there is not pop or smtp servers, you have to use the HTTP option in your outlook
express. The link is

http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp

You can avoid having to go into hotmail.com and avoid all of the annoying ads.

If you have a telnet client set up as a helper app to your web


browser,
simply click on the name of a server to use the server for direct mail.
Some links may be slow.

Mail Servers with No IP Logging

Number of Servers that have updated Sendmail versions due to my list

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I wrote How to Send Fake Mail Using SMTP Servers, I said that your
messages are traceable by your IP address (it will always be stamped in the
header). Well, slowly, I am finding systems that don't append your IP to
the message. You can send messages through this servers, using the
techniques I described in my SMTP fakemail tutorial, and they are totally
untraceable. If you have a telnet client set as a helper app to your
broweser, all you have to do is click on the link below, and you will be
connected to the respective SMTP server.

DO NOT DO ANYTHING REALLY STUPID WITH THESE SERVERS. If a server was posted
on this list, but isn't now, don't use it! Don't say that I didn't warn
you.

SMTP Tutorial

Mail transport agents (MTAs) like Postfix speak to each other using SMTP (Simple Mail Transport
Protocol). To understand how MTAs work, and sometimes don't work, it will help to have a very basic
understanding of this protocol. If you telnet to the smtp port (port 25) of a mail server, you can speak
with an MTA directly in its native language. Here is an example of how to send bob@example.com an
email from alice@somewhere.net.
$ telnet smtp.example.com smtp
Trying 192.0.34.72...
Connected to smtp.example.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 smtp.example.com ESMTP Postfix (Debian/GNU)
HELO smtp.somewhere.net
250 smtp.example.com
MAIL From: alice@somewhere.net
250 Ok
RCPT To: bob@example.com
250 Ok
DATA
354 End data with <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>
Hello, Bob!
Love, Alice.
.
250 Ok: queued as F169C23068
QUIT
221 Bye
Connection closed by foreign host.
The client begins by identifying itself (HELO) and telling the server it has an email (MAIL) to deliver to
one or more recipients (RCPT). It then conveys the contents of the email (DATA) and leaves (QUIT). The
server responds to each directive with a numerical code and a message that indicates the success or
failure of the requested operation.

Each MTA that handles a mail adds headers containing information about the SMTP session. For
example, when it is stored at its destination, the full header and body of the mail we sent above looks
like this.
Received: from smtp.somewhere.net (smtp.badguy.net [])
by smtp.example.com (Postfix) with SMTP id F169C23068
for <bob@example.com>; Tue, 6 Aug 2002 12:02:15 -0700 (PDT)
Message-Id <20020806190215.F169C23068@smtp.example.com>
Date: Tue, 6 Aug 2002 12:02:15 -0700 (PDT)
From: alice@somewhere.net
To: undisclosed-recipients:;

Hello, Bob!
Love, Alice.
