A good spam-blocking keyword is the word "guarantee." Just block out messages with that keyword and most of your spam issues will go away. I've used that technique for a couple years now, and it's worked great. I've had to add a couple other words to my filter to pick up on adult material as well, but for the most part, "guarantee" catches all that other crap.

Dear MySQL list, I'm afraid I've had it. I don't post often here - but I probably help on average one person a day by working directly with them in the background. I considered it payback for the value I got from others over the years. But, I can't stand the quantity of spam here. The list needs to be made subscriber only, or I suspect the only people that will be left here soon will be the company and the spammers. Good luck to all. Someone let me know if the policy changes. Thanks for a great product.
