I've gotten a ton of spam directed at our mailing list so I set up some auto discard filters. Unfortunately I don't know regular expressions so may have misconfigured - result is some seemingly valid messages getting discarded (could be different reason than my filters).
A couple yesterday were from un-subscribed users. but usually I get a bounce saying it is held for moderation.. though not in this case. I don't always check the auto discard messages because of the number of them, but a registered user sent an email that never showed up as a bounce (held for moderation) or as accepted, so I assume it was auto discarded as well. Here's my filter config for subject: ^Subject: .*Phentermine ^Subject: .*F\*ckbuddy ^Subject: .*H00kup ^Subject: .*InstaF\*ck ^Subject: .*Instacheat ^Subject: .*\(dating\)* ^Subject: .*Larisa ^Subject: .*Viagra ^Subject: .*on line* ^Subject: .*pills ^Subject: .*Cialis ^Subject: .*Yulia ^Subject: .*rewarded ^Subject: .*viagra ^Subject: .*Orgasm ^Subject: .*Russia ^Subject: .*my gentle sun* ^Subject: .*Good day to you* ^Subject: .*Do.not.write.me* ^Subject: .*Casino ^Subject: .*Your invoice* ^Subject: .*Re\:Hey* ^Subject: .*Ukraine ^Subject: .*Re\:You ^Subject: .*Wives ^Subject: .*PowerPack ^Subject: .*our.communication* ^Subject: .*easy.money* ^Subject: .*Live.Chat* ^Subject: .*Games.and.profits* ^Subject: .*new.message* ^Subject: .*\?\?\?\?* ^Subject: .*SuperDiscount ^Subject: .*Easily.Earn* ^Subject: .*help.you.earn* ^Subject: .*let\'s.chat* ^Subject: .*I.am.on\-line* ^Subject: .*Making.\$* ^Subject: .*\(on\-line.now\) ^Subject: .*Xenical ^Subject: .*cure.yourself ^Subject: .*celexa ^Subject: .*binary.options ^Subject: .*Re\:.don\'t ^Subject: .*effective.tabs ^Subject: .*ED\! ^Subject: .*lexapro ^Subject: .*big.deal\! ^Subject: .*your.vigor ^Subject: .*boner ^Subject: .*medications ^Subject: .*buy.meds ^Subject: .*lasting.erection ^Subject: .*RE\:.Pure ^Subject: .*pure.joy ^Subject: .*hey\! ^Subject: .*online.trade ^Subject: .*ED.remedy ^Subject: .*answer\! ^Subject: .*best.meds ^Subject: .*powerful.meds ^Subject: .*start.trading ^Subject: .*RE\:.Now ^Subject: .*RE\:.loan ^Subject: .*sex ^Subject: .*fantasies ^Subject: .*make.money ^Subject: .*your.depression ^Subject: .*antidepressant ^Subject: .*impotence ^Subject: .*anti.depression ^Subject: .*our.portal ^Subject: .*without.depression ^Subject: .*bright.life ^Subject: .*amorous and legacy: # Lines that *start* with a '#' are comments. to: fri...@public.com message-id: relay.comanche.denmark.eu from: l...@listme.com from: .*@uplinkpro.com and email: ^[^@]+@bcira\.com$ ^[^@]+@airablo\.com$ ^[^@]+@bfklaw\.com$ ^[^@]+@bettella\.com$ ^[^@]+@areallycool\.com$ ^[^@]+@aristo-tec\.com$ ^[^@]+@benallgood\.com$ ^[^@]+@al-meshkah\.com$ ^[^@]+@atoccs\.stream$ ^[^@]+@authors\.com$ ^[^@]+@aulson\.com$ ^[^@]+@atmyx\.bid$ ^[^@]+@airtecperforms\.com$ vmserv...@nomekennelclub.com ^[^@]+@.+\.loan$ ^[^@]+@.+\.stream$ ^[^@]+@.+\.trade$ ^[^@]+@.+\.bid$ ^[^@]+@.+\.cn$ ^[^@]+@postingmuscle\.com$ ^[^@]+@adirondack\.net$ ^[^@]+@bicycleexpertwitness\.com$ ^[^@]+@allpoetry\.com$ ^[^@]+@autecsafety\.com$ ^[^@]+@proshred\.com$ ^[^@]+@archangel-films\.com$ ^[^@]+@alansphotos\.com$ ^[^@]+@agoprofil\.com$ ^[^@]+@readytech\.com$ ^[^@]+@blakecarrington\.com$ ^[^@]+@bigcatcafe\.com$ ^[^@]+@biovectra\.com$ ^[^@]+@blueridgeknives\.com$ ^[^@]+@akarenga\.com$ ^[^@]+@appetez\.com$ ^[^@]+@angelaortiz\.com$ ^[^@]+@agridfencing\.com$ ^[^@]+@blumenstetter-bindesysteme\.com$ ^[^@]+@alienwebhost\.com$ ^[^@]+@barkingcafe\.com$ ^[^@]+@babynamegenie\.com$ ^[^@]+@bluechick\.com$ ^[^@]+@bienenstock\.com$ ^[^@]+@askwith\.com$ ^[^@]+@bespoke-fp\.com$ ^[^@]+@alcoa\.com$ ^[^@]+@fotolia\.com$ ^[^@]+@betsonenterprises\.com$ ^[^@]+@argentinosonline\.com$ ^[^@]+@adeptus\.com$ dgimmin...@gci.net ^[^@]+@andover-healthcare\.com$ ^[^@]+@bearablemoments\.com$ ^[^@]+@avexnet\.com$ ^[^@]+@avidnano\.com$ ^[^@]+@amcarco\.com$ ^[^@]+@biyougeka-kensakuya\.com$ ^[^@]+@albawardi\.com$ ^[^@]+@barrao\.com$ ^[^@]+@affordableweddinggown\.com$ ^[^@]+@barshield\.com$ ^[^@]+@autographink\.com$ ^[^@]+@blankethealthinsurance\.com$ ^[^@]+@alfredojunior\.com$ ^[^@]+@marketingautomationtools\.org$ ^[^@]+@wexonex\.com$ ^[^@]+@bargedirect\.com$ ^[^@]+@blacktoastintolerance\.com$ ^[^@]+@bada-bing\.com$ ^[^@]+@africanews\.com$ ^[^@]+@marketplace\.amazon\.co\.uk$ ^[^@]+@blazingworld\.com$ ^[^@]+@csu\.edu$ ^[^@]+@artecollezione\.com$ ^[^@]+@billupsdesign\.com$ ^[^@]+@art4sale\.com$ ^[^@]+@bdwt\.com$ ^[^@]+@architechies\.com$ ^[^@]+@banklife\.comfe\.com$ ^[^@]+@aveek\.com$ ^[^@]+@adweek\.com$ ^[^@]+@allendistribution\.com$ ^[^@]+@1800radiator\.com$ ^[^@]+@alarabiaco\.com$ ^[^@]+@boldconcepts\.com$ ^[^@]+@andersonvaluationgroup\.com$ ^[^@]+@armandbasi\.com$ ^[^@]+@arastra\.com$ ^[^@]+@arcticspassaskatoon\.com$ ^[^@]+@aubreynorris\.com$ ^[^@]+@bctc\-lb\.com$ ^[^@]+@alongtheway\.com$ ^[^@]+@espbs\.net$ ^[^@]+@allthingsdigital\.com$ ^[^@]+@adinfocenter\.com$ ^[^@]+@arabize\.com$ ^[^@]+@giesting\.com$ ^[^@]+@.+\.co\.nz$ ^[^@]+@morebusinesswithfacebook\.com$ ^[^@]+@.+\.de$ ^[^@]+@.+\.ru$ ^[^@]+@.+\.ca$ ^parsons@nome\.net$ The subject on one discarded msg was (from unsubscribed user - just used wrong email): MEDITATION!
