E-mail Gateway malicious url e-mail allowed through

Looks like a sales description copied and pasted. 

Problem is Sophos Central Email Security doesn't work as it should. I have created a new ticket and had to re-enable Sophos Sophos - Remote Assitance now twice while support hasn't done anything,

Seems like a Spam Reply. Do you have a ticket ID? emmosophos can help here. 

Hi LuCar Toni, 

The ticket is 05122960. 

Sophos needs to fix the logic. They need to check the sender IP and helo against the SPF and DMARC settings ot the FROM email domain. If they don't match, apply the SPF and DMARC settings,

Any outside e-mail with a from domain corresponding to a protected own domain, not matching spf and dmarc should be treated as a header anomaly.

malicious email should ofcourse be detected.

Thanks,

Fred

Hi LuCar Toni and emmosophos,

The case 05122960. has been closed again by Sophos Support without doing or communicating anything. The only thing they occasionaly did is check if Sophos Assistance on Central was still enabled and send a request to enable it again. Happened multiple times.

As a workaround I am blacklisting (sometimes whole ranges) of mail server IP adresses that impersonate us. That stopped most.

Not that they stop trying, yesterday we received an outside email request to purchase something in the name of the director. Luckily it was not using our email domain so he rang the director to check. If it had used our email domain and was allowed tru the question is if the manager would have doubted the e-mail.

Regards,

Fred

Hello Fred,

I checked on your case, and Support sent you an email on Jun 23, telling you about some updates, however, there was no reply from your end, or after 3 follow-up emails. 

In that email, they’re asking you to check a configuration related to the Allow List that might be conflicting with your SPF check.

Additionally, they provided the following KB , for the error below:

Results - PermError SPF Permanent Error: Too many DNS lookups

Did you get a change to read that email?

Hi emmosophos

I have checked my mail box but no message from Sophos Support on that day. I went further and checked the Sophos Email Gateway logs and found that it was quarantined for a malicous url!

Hi emmosophos

Also the follow up e-mails were quarantined for a malicious url. I have reported them to SophosLabs as not spam.

I will check the recommendations and monitor for changes.

Thanks for the assistance.

Fred
