You're not just making better guesses at what spammers say. You're effectively building a digital signature of what your REAL mail looks like, and comparing messages to it. The further it deviates from your real mail, the spammier it is. The only two ways for spammers to avoid this are to move to graphics, which can still be whacked on, and to stop using open relays and other things that leave noticable signatures in the headers. It might not catch the smartest spam, but it'll sure catch everything else. -- Chuq Von Rospach, Architech [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://www.chuqui.com/ No! No!
