Just so you know, before I switch the email account, there were 1224 spam items inbound to the old account @qualityoffice.com in one month. Since I move my email for this list to another account. I am looking at five. The problem is solved and we can close this thread. -- Best regards, Ethanmailto:supp...@thedesk.ca Current beta is 8.3.0.3 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I am getting *tons*, possibly almost *megatons* of it as I get mails from several "domain baskets", but Antispam Snipper is doing an awesome job for me here. My mail address that I am on the list with is very distinctive: tbbeta-list*ät*kabelac.cz so identifying spam that came from that direction should be fairly simple. That said, I couldn't find a _single_ spam message caught by ASS (only a little pun intended ;) ) that was sent to that address.. So either I am missing (as in failing to see) all that spam, or I would suspect other factors involved in the plague you are experiencing. -- Best regards, Viktor Kabelacmailto:tbbeta-l...@kabelac.cz Current beta is 8.3.0.3 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Endless amounts of spam from the Beta Mailing list.

This is interesting. I recently moved to another mail service given the high degree of spam and offensive email that was being sent to qualityoff...@thedesk.ca. ( about 750 per month) I believe someone has used the mailing list for spam purposes. Since moving to another mailing account (supp...@thedesk.ca) list, I have noticed a significant increase of spam attempts and nasty email threats. Hence the bounce backs. The amount of email and threats on the former address have dropped significantly. I would encourage a review of how the emails addresses associated with the Bat Mailing list are securing. I really think they have been compromised and the spam mail is very bad.
