[cobalt-security] Maybe OT: maillog reports attack; other lists?



I've got four entries in my maillog which I've never seen before and which
look terrifying. This is on my non-Cobalt server (RedHat) so I don't know if
it's of relevance to this list. If not, apologies - but I'd be grateful for
suggestions as to good lists to try, hopefully with people as helpful as on
this one.
