My solution... 1) RBL lookups at the mailserver. (extensive!) 2) Spamassassin to tag what little spam makes it past at the mailserver (though this is just as easily done from procmailrcs at the user level). 3) Procmail to filter spam off to a holding bin until I get a chance to report it. 4) Report *ALL* spam. spamcop.net is a Godsend. If anybody wants my exim.conf for an example, email me privately and I'll email it to you. Depends on spamassassin, recommend razor. If you use it, you can dike out the spamassassin checking (but why?), and you will need to change everywhere it lists sites to what's appropriate for you; I don't appreciate the mystery bounce from nowhere... > Anyways I tremble in my boots each time one of you CCs to my real > address, can't you Bcc me?
