[cobalt-security] Fwd: ACTIVE SYSTEM ATTACK! (?)



Dear Cobalt Security Guri,

Attached below please see a message I received from
the log monitoring program on my RaQ2.  I use
logcheck 1.1.1.

I don't recall ever seeing a message with "ACTIVE
SYSTEM ATTACK!" in the subject line and wonder
if it might be bogus.  What do you think?

Also, the log entry about which logcheck complains
looks harmless to me;  is it?  If I'm reading it right,
I believe that what it's reporting is a refusal to relay
Rumanian spam, not at all unusual;  am I interpreting
this correctly?

Thanks muchly for sage advice!
