simplenews creates open relay.

Created on 19 February 2025, 5 days ago

Problem/Motivation

The module has had this issue far as long as it has existed and why i'll never use it.
It creates an open relay for spam bots to use to send emails. I know I had entered a bug year ago about it, stopped using it and found someone that was using it when I was going through the email logs on a job I found after investigating it was due to this module.

I am advising that people don't use it until this is fixed. I recommended to client that they should look for an alternative like mail chimp.
