It has to be a subscriber. I just got spam in the form of an almost-immediate reply to my last message to the list, including message-ids.

Re: [sqlite] Are you getting spam when you post to sqlite-users ?
I block by domain as in *.dognuts *.spammers *.dating *.evildoers for basically every johhny-cum-lately domain (ie, that has not existed since before 1995) -- one strike and the whole TLD is fileterd (as in packet routed to the null0 interface). Then tere is the checks on SPF, protocol conformance (as in you do not speak until spoken to, you dirty spammer you), a number of RBL checks and of course null0 routing all "nasty" addresses (that is, if you send SSH attacks to someone, you likely have no good reason to be talking to me at all). Very effective. 99.9% of all spam eliminated. --- The fact that there's a Highway to Hell but only a Stairway to Heaven says a lot about anticipated traffic volume. >-Original Message- >From: sqlite-users [mailto:sqlite-users- >boun...@mailinglists.sqlite.org] On Behalf Of Dennis Clarke >Sent: Wednesday, 18 April, 2018 10:36 >To: sqlite-users@mailinglists.sqlite.org >Subject: Re: [sqlite] Are you getting spam when you post to sqlite- >users ? > > >> "Banishing" means configuring IP filters on the server to silently >> discard any and all IP packets that originate from the targeted >range >> of IP addresses. > >This is the best method that I have ever used and I can tell you that >your ipfilter rules can get quite long using this approach.

Re: [sqlite] Are you getting spam when you post to sqlite-users ?
Wouldn't it be as simple as subscribing to the mailing list and harvesting the emails directly from the inbound content? Because as it is, everyone's real email already comes to me in the list messages I receive (as 'sqlite-users on behalf of x...@yyy.com') The spam message I just received used the subject line that I had posted onto the list a day or so ago (so I know how they got it), but was addressed to my email directly (so I don't think there's any banning that sqlite can do). Perhaps it's a pity I'm otherwise too busy, because Samantha invites me to 'come and treat us in real, plz'. Lol!

"Banishing" means configuring IP filters on the server to silently discard any and all IP packets that originate from the targeted range of IP addresses.
