-----Original Message----- From: Jeff Rife [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I haven't seen any truly legitimate ones get those scores, although ones that come from "legitimate spammers" (i.e., where they are spamming for legal things) do. Since all of these sorts are from harvesting or sold-without-consent lists, I don't think anybody is inconvenienced by it.
I would concur with Jeff, 10 is a good number to use to bounce, I started at 13 and worked my way down. Any legitiamte marketing department will attempt to stay below 5 in SA. Some that deal with financial, even some of the big 5 financials will creep over 5 due to the word mortgage, but that's what spammers have done, they have poisoned the pool for all. So if you sign up for a mortgage watch (legit thru one of the big 5 banking outfits), you will see a score of 4-6 give or take (if html, obviously text scores much less) (and hell text is preferred by many these days anyways). I think I tag things that rate over 5 as spam, but send it along, I block anything that scores a 9.5 or above. But heck the new pill pusher and outdated mortgage spams, don't even score sometimes. What I need is something that will do a dictionary look up and if the email contains more then 2 mispelled words in the subject it's bounced. That's not efficient, but how else are you going to stop all the V!Agra, M0r tgage and other types of spam?! -Tory _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.canit.ca MIMEDefang mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
