My list would be the same as previously cited, and yes, earthling.net is not
a typo.

All of these would make it to my list as the "top faked from: domains".  But
of the ones that I've seen make it through to the spamtraps, none.  Which is
why I haven't implemented a small negative weight for these domains; the
spam that pretends to come from these domains is always overwhelmingly
spammy and is caught anyway.

What would be useful is a rigorous test for these domains that can tell the
difference between a bogus MSN.com (or whatever) and the real one.  If it's
definitely bogus, then I could set the action to DELETE instead of getting a
HOLD from the high weight.  That would take a big bite out of the messages I
have to wade through with the excellent SpamReview app.

(gazing at navel...)

I could probably get there anyway by giving these domains a negative weight
and creating a DELETE action at a high enough WEIGHT.  Ah well.  The volume
caught (average of 700 a day) hasn't yet exceeded our ability to deal with
the HOLD messages.

I am sure that is earthlink.net, correct? Of course, some people claim they
are aliens. :))
