What a bunch of clueless twits these yahoo people are.  I tried adding 
filters 
by originating ip in procmail, but found that killed 2 mailing lists of 
theirs.  Anybody else have a working recipe?

Frankly, yahoo should pay their people well enough that they don't have 
to 
moonlight sending spam via yahoo's servers to make a living wage.

I once had a recurring at weekly intervals surfeit of spam that was 
coming in 
from another ISP I used to use, and I kept complaining to the admin, who


thought he was hot shit and threatened me with the FBI should I bitch 
again.  
So one evening when I had about 20 of them that all resembled each 
other, I 
started checking, and this hot shit sysadmin was dumb enough to be 
sending 
them from his own home machine!  I had 5 messages from him regarding the
spam 
filters to use as the verifying ip numbers.

The next time we tangled I quoted him bible and verse, shutting him off 
in 
midsentence with my own threat to call the FBI and the ass hole got real


nice, real fast.

So to yahoo, as one physician to another, "physician heal thyself..."  
You 
have thieves at the water cooler.

One nice thing about egotists: they don't talk about other people.
