I recieved the exact same spam emails that you did. My very very simple perl
script spam filter managed to block both of them without blocking all yahoo
addresses. Why block domains when most spam can be blocked with
keywords/baysian filters?
While were on the subject, it may be a commonly asked question, im not sure,
but is there not some server side filtering of spam from freebsd, it
currently makes up 10% of all my spam recieved? (My conservative filters at
this end manage to catch most of the freebsd spam with no false positives). I
should think it would save some cpu cycles and bandwidth to filter?
