The mailbox for my domain is swamped with &*^%&%$ viagra and herbal crap. Most of the stuff is bounced messages from mailer daeomons as the spam fakes a random return address at my domain. Most of the messages refer to domains owned/registered/hosted in China. Why can;t they follow tme money trail to close down these spammers? This is killing the net.
Because the money trail also leads to the donations funds of the current US government (and probably half the dems too) - there's two reasons why the US anti spam bill was so half arsed - the first was funds in banks, the second was that they didn't want to have their campaigning affected by it (look forward to being spammed by the bushies in nov...) note the specific exclusion of the govt and churches from the spam act JL random return address at my domain.
fakes a random return address at my domain. Like it's so hard to delete them? -- Deevo Geraldton WA, The Nanny State (® Corks) http://members.westnet.com.au/mckenzie
What shits me is that my ISP gave me a month or two free spam filter which PROVES THAT THEY CAN IDENTIFY SPAM at the ISP level so they can surely block it there too! (Is it a privacy issue Theo or are d'yer think they're just happy to have that volume of [chargeable] traffic?) -- Clem ["yaay intellitect andwer from some one"..

Reorganised for clarity. Oh I think I might. Well why don't you educate us then instead of ranting. -- Deevo Geraldton WA, The Nanny State (® Corks) http://members.westnet.com.au/mckenzie
Well aren't we keen to strut our geekdom. No thanks, this thread has now reached a natural death in this forum. Thanks, you;ve been fun! But go ahead and re-reorganise to your hearts content. PS. Redeem thyself. Suggest a functional REGEX to deal with server-side spam filtering of subject lines with fullstops in every word... no wait... dont tell me... you actually download all the crap locally first?
reached a natural death in this forum. Translated - "I can't think of a good argument so I'm going to act like a git then run away." filtering of subject lines with fullstops in every word... first?

I'd have thought you, of all people, would get it. Still, it never ceases to amaze me how many people just don't get Rod Speed. Fools, all of them! G
I used to get him regularly, on Fidonet, but then I closed my eyes, clicked my heels and Toto and I were FREED! --- Cheers PeterC [aka MildThing] '81 Suzuki GS450-s '87 BMW K100RT www.dmcsc.org.au
Oh well I guess I'm a fool. JL (like I say, i don't reckon he's a real human, he's an AI trolling/flaming program)
