NAME

       formmailtest - attempt to use formmail to relay to a DSBL-complaint host

SYNOPSIS

       formmailtest <url> [<spoof recipient>]

DESCRIPTION

       formmailtest  attempts  to  connect  to  the  specified host and uses several different to
       attempt to relay through the FormMail script located at <url>.  It can do  more  tests  if
       the normal recipient for that FormMail script is provided as <spoof recipient>, but it can
       quite often relay without.

       Tests   are   done   with   both   GET   and   POST   to    attempt    to    bypass    any
       firewall/httpd.conf/.htaccess pseudo-security.

       In the tests described below, DOMAIN is the section of <spoof recipient> after the @ sign,
       USER is the section before, and DASHDOMAIN is DOMAIN after all periods have been  replaced
       by dashes.

       Tests:
              recipient=listme@dsbl.org
              recipient=dsbl.org!listme
              realname=&email=\nCc: listme@dsbl.org&recipient=()
              realname=)\nCc: listme@dsbl.org (&recipient=()
              recipient=listme%dsbl.org@DOMAIN
              recipient=dsbl.org!listme@DOMAIN
              recipient=listme@dsbl.org(DOMAIN
              recipient=<listme@dsbl.org>DOMAIN
              realname=&email=0c: listme@dsbl.org&recipient=DOMAIN
              realname=)0c: listme@dsbl.org (&email=&recipient=DOMAIN
              recipient=listme@dsbl.org(USER@DASHDOMAIN
              recipient=<listme@dsbl.org>USER@DASHDOMAIN
