I have been collecting emails and forwarding the spam that razor doesn't
catch to another account of mine. I forward the whole lot of them as
attachments (using outlook express primarily). From the box that has the
forwarded account, I run formail to break the email into its consituent
pieces (using a procmail recipe to deliver them to a maildir mailbox). I
delete the original email from me (the forwarding "wrapper" as it were) and
then I submit each maildir email to razor-report.

My question is whether this process somehow generates a bad signature on
these emails. What is raising this question is the roughly ten straight days
of submitting gamblingsurf.com spam and the continued lack of blocking by
razor. The odd thing is that some of the gamblingsurf spam is getting
blocked. Has this spammer somehow found an algorithm to bypass the fuzzy
logic employed by the razor engine?

I use only version 2 of razor and I realize that due to the relative short
period of time I have been reporting, my confidence rating (or whatever it
is called) will be pretty much nonexistent. I find it tough to believe that
no one else is getting/reporting this spam though.

I guess my bottom line question is: what is the preferred method of
reporting spam from a mailbox consisting of spam forwarded to it as
attachments?

TIA,

Sven
