I've been running a simple procmail filter to get rid of spam from
some specific sites. The sample below only includes a few of the
addresses, but even with the whole list it's no longer very effective.
Last weekend I decided to tune it up to filter out more of the spam.
I added the last three rules below. Out of the next batch of 116
emails, these rules eliminated 116. That's right - all the babies got
thrown out with the bath water. Of course, I've commented out the new
rules until I debug them.
If someone has a non-risky way to test procmail rules, I'd appreciate
hearing about it.
Of course, if you see what I've done wrong I'd like to hear that too.
