Ok, I'm, sure this is trivial, and I'm sure I haven't checked into it all the way. But I had an interesting peice of spam make it past my filters to get sent into a spam free area of my email app. Just wondering what options out there I could employ to check for stuff like this. Things like SenderID, SPF and similar probably wouldn't work because of the method they employed but any ideas are welcome.
HELO junkmail.com MAIL FROM: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> RCTP TO: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> DATA From: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ... Now what's the advantage of the above? It appears to come from the receiver thus allowing it to be filtered on appropriately. Now as long as the email doesn't break too many of the litterally thousands of other rules, it will make it through an appear to be legitimate (at least on the side of the server). No email from my domain either in the plain text name portion or the actual sender email address should orgininate outside my domain's SPF record. Any suggestions for hunting and destroying these emails?
