The spammer might be using MIME encoding and IMail might not be decoding the info before processing, i.e.

=2Ecom=3Dg9=2Egif

It could also be that the spammer is using HTML and/or URL encoding on top of that. Try finding the plain text source to look for the string.

I'm just guessing at this because I don't use the spam filtering in IMail; it's severely deficient. If you are trying to keep up with things like this, and you can justify the added expense, Declude JunkMail Pro does a much better job.

We get tons of spam containing a link to the same *.gif file as follows:

<img src="http://www.kwpsdx.com/g9.gif"; border=0>

The spammer keeps changing the domain name but keeps the graphic name the same. So, in the 'phrase-list.txt' file, we added the following character string:

.com/g9.gif

but, the spam messages still get through. Anyone know why?

Thanks in advance,
