Cool

How would you do .............?

 \nfrom: "?Target Bank <except when> the email address is
<@targetdomain.com> (which will be validated by SPF already)

It's a small amount of text to test and won't be a huge list of domains to
test against so CPU won't hurt too much. You're quite right about most spam
having multiple mistakes, that's why I like to use scoring so it takes at
least two mistakes to trigger. That gets 99.9% but it's that other 0.1% I'm
after. People don't mind getting the odd v14gra spam sneak thru (Some of
mine have complained because they aren't getting them) but imho they will
measure the quality of yours/our/my work on our performance against the
scammers.

Using a regex should be the last choice. Spammers often doing alot of other
mistakes - try to setup the early checks (helo, black domains, ip blocking,
sender validation) , spf and penaltybox in a way to catch the spam. If this
is not possible - in your case - use bombHeaderRe.

\nfrom: "?Target Bank

or (more CPU intensive)
\nfrom:\s*"?\s*Target\s+Bank

Hey Thomas

I am totally impressed with how responsive you've been and how awesome this
software is. I started five years ago with ASSP but this is my first
experience with v2x and it's a whole new animal.
Now being cheeky with another thought, anticipating the next move by the
scammers,  If we could test the name part of the from header, ie   FROM:
"Target Bank" <someb...@someotherdomain.com> with a regex  we would just
about have them screwed :-)

Cheers.............Bob

>So why isn't  strictSPFRe  applying here ? 

yes - incase of  strictSPFRe spfValencePB should be used.

I never saw this, because I use (the IMHO better and more logical
blockstrictSPFRe).

This will be changed.

><x...@yyyyy.com> to: xx...@xxxx.ac.nz [scoring] SPF: neutral (cache)
>ip=60.234.67.203 mailfrom=x...@yyyyy.com helo=mta1.xxxx.com

So why isn't  strictSPFRe  applying here ? 

>>No,  spfnValencePB is right, because the state is 'neutral' in 'SPF: 
>>neutral (cache)'.
