SpamChk is an external test for Declude Junkmail.
You can download it from www.riedmann.it/spamchk
Some weeks ago I've posted also an updated ini-file to this list.

Sorry for my ignorance, but what is SpamChk? Declude couldn't identify the suspicious keywords despite them being in my FILTER file.

Mike,
 
Most messages processed by our server are written in european languages. (German, Italian, French, ...) We see a lot of this ISO-.... subject lines.
 
This is a base64 encoded subject line. (the "?B" after the ISO-id means base64-encoded)
SpamChk can identify suspicious keywords that are encoded like this.
 
BTW: Even if some subscribers of this lists has whitelisted anyway messages from this list, it's not a good idea to put such a keyword in the subject. I bet not all subscribers has recieved your message.

Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] VIAGRA won't die

Apparently, this means "Generic Viagra" as revealed in the Declude Log file:
 
 =?iso-8859-1?B?R2VuZXJpYyBWaWFncmE=?=
 
What can you do about obfuscated subjects using ISO character sets? I was thinking of filtering them based on partial string, like this:
 
SUBJECT 30 CONTAINS =?iso-8859
 
Is it safe to filter this? In other words, would a legitimate or casual sender ever use such a method to display a subject? Is there a list of ISO charcter sets that can be filtered?
 
Thanks!
 
Mike
