Spam mails
Hi - My email server is on FreeBSD 5.4 Release. I got a lot spam mails every day and it is really a headache to clean these mails in my pop mail client software daily. Is there any effective way to reduce and block these spam emails? Please help to provide me hint or direction. Thank you in advance. - Ming ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Please help to provide me hint or direction. Although I'm not certain of your exact setup, I use procmail to filter out the 'spam' mail. Well.. In reality, I use it in a reverse fashion. I filter all mail to my 'trash' folder, then using procmail, filter all 'good' mail out (ie, mailing lists, school email, personal contacts, etc). Hope this helps. -- Glen Barber ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Spam mails
Server wide blocking w/ an rbl of your choice: http://cr.yp.to/ucspi-tcp/rblsmtpd.html Server wide or inbox specific filtering w/ bayes capabilities: http://spamassassin.apache.org/ Or, don't run a mail server...which is the most effective. ;) Obviously there are many other programs you can use, however I just provided two off the top of my head. ~Paul Ming Tang wrote: Hi - My email server is on FreeBSD 5.4 Release.
