re: [Declude.JunkMail] Review spam in hold queue?
I wrote a real quick app a long time ago when I was trying to review an overloaded imail spool to see if there were any legit messages in it. It's no spam review, but it will show you a list of messages in a folder with To, From, Subject, and Size in a listview. You can click on each one to see the raw message. I wrote it to help with an immediate problem, then never touched it again, so it didn't really get any debugging time. It's a vb6 app. If anyone wants it, it may be a temporary help until they find something better, or it may give them something to start with to build their own. In it's current version, it will scan every message in the current directory. For instance, if your held spam is in folder C:\imail\spool\spam, then drop the exe in that folder and double click it, and it will scan every Imail format message in that folder and display a list. It should be pretty easy to convert it to work with SmarterMail format. App and source are attached. -Daniel -- Original Message -- From: Gary Steiner [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: Declude.JunkMail@declude.com Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2005 02:13:20 -0400 Welcome to Notepad! I've also been looking for a utility to do this, but haven't found it yet. Spam Review was recommended to me, but I was disappointed to find out that it only works with IMail - not SmarterMail. You can download it here - http://www.sunlightsoftware.com/spamreview.htm The author states on that web page that he will honor requests for a copy of the code, but he never got back to me. It would seem that it would be relatively easy to convert Spam Review for use with SmarterMail, as it is just a matter of changing the file names (Q*.SMD and D*.SMD for Imail vs. *.EML and *.HDR for SmarterMail) and probably some other minor tweaks like adding an X to the filename of re-qued mail. If anyone else knows of a similar utility that will work with SmarterMail, I would love to hear of it! Gary Original Message From: Dave Beckstrom [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 31, 2005 12:05 AM To: Declude.JunkMail@declude.com Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] Review spam in hold queue? I installed Junkmail Pro today as a trial with smartermail. I have a fair number of spams that have been held and I need a means to review them and to identify false positives. How do most of you review the spam in the hold queue? I seem to recall a utility, I think it was called spamreview, which would display the subject, from address and body of the messages in the hold queue. Does anyone have this utility that they could send to me or can you point me to where I can download it? I tried adding a copyto action such as: WEIGHT30 HOLD%DATE% WEIGHT30 copyto [EMAIL PROTECTED] The idea being that I could use a mail client to review all of the spams that were held. Then using the spool filename listed in the header I could identify the file and move it back into the mail queue for redelivery. Unfortunately the dual actions didn't work. Upon reading the manual closer I found that you could create two different actions with different names but that means duplicating each test, too. I don't want to do that. I'm looking for suggestions on how to review the spam that has been held?

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: WMI scripting DNS TXT problems
I already tried that. I should have elaborated more on what I have already tried. It does not seem to have anything to do with the quotes, because if I do this... objRR.CreateInstanceFromTextRepresentation CONST_SERVER, strZoneName, strZoneName IN TXT v=sp1, objOutParam I still get the line break at the end. That is with no quotes around the text string and no spaces in it. If I do the same with quotes, I get the same results. It seems to me that it doesn't have anything to do with my code and is automatically added, but I was hoping there was a way to defeat that. I may be wrong though. All other types of records (A, MX, NS) work perfectly, and TXT works except the line break.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] TESTFAILEDWITHWEIGHTS
Yes, I'm running 1.77 beta. The exact line from my global.cfg is... HIDETESTS IPNOTINMX NOLEGITCONTENT K-SPAM-ALL K-SPAM-VHIGH K-SPAM-HIGH K-SPAM-MED K-SPAM-LOW The K-SPAM- test are weight test for my Webmail junkmail filter I created. I use Imail rules for customers to choose to send mail to a junkmail folder or delete it based on results of declude weights. Since I set up HIDETESTS, the IPNOTINMX and NOLEGITCONTENT have not shown up in the TESTSFAILEDWITHWEIGHTS variable, but all of the weight tests still show up. This really wouldn't matter to me anyway except it looks like they are adding weight when they really don't. Like you said about the TESTSWITHWEIGHT suggestion, it looks very confusing to the user if they are adding up the score and the WEIGHT10 shows a [10] beside it. It looks like that added 10 points to the weight. -Daniel -- Original Message -- From: R.

[Declude.JunkMail] END statement in filters
Is anyone using the END statement in filters successfully? I am finding on my server that if I have an END anywhere in a filter it always ends, whether it matches that statement or not.

[Declude.JunkMail] possible request for feature
Can there be a way for a filter to fail all or nothing. For instance, everyone seems to be receiving spam with no subject, and fake tags such as gkslthsjewl. I receive thousands of these messages a day, all from different spammers. I have been filtering on the two characteristics, and it usually gets to my hold weight. I don't want to set a very high weight for blank subjects because I'm sure of FP's. If I could combine the two I would feel comfortable deleting on just this test. If I could somehow define a filter that will only fail if all instances in the filter are true I could set up... SUBJECT 0 ISBLANK BODY0 STARTSWITH g and delete on this filter file alone. Maybe some statement at the top to define it, similar to the features you are adding with the maxweight and skipifweight. If it is for some reason it is not a good idea to do with a filter, maybe a new type of test could be created to do this. This could cut down on spam, but also save some resources if the test could be run first. No dns request would have to be made or any other filters run. If this has already been covered I apologize. If there is already a way to do this please let me know how. BTW, has anyone else seen the ridiculous increase in spam that I have? A few days before Thanksgiving my inbound mail increased from around 400,000 a day to over 2 million messages a day. I died back down over the holiday weekend but has picked back up now. I guess the spammers took Thanksgiving off too. Over the years it has been common for us to get more spam during Christmas, but not like this. I guess everyone is taking up spamming as a way to make extra Christmas money. -Daniel --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.

[Declude.JunkMail] Several similar address in TO: field
Is there any way to test for several addresses in the TO: line that are similar? For instance the following addresses were in the TO: line of a message I received recently.

You could check for there being more that a certain number of addresses in the TO: field that start with the same letter, or something like that. I don't think I have ever received a legitimate message like that. It may have a few false positives from newsletters, but would probably be good in a weighting system.
