I have two servers. Currently they're both running instances of spamd
with separate mysql databases, however I'd like run both instances from
the same database on one of the servers. There are two ways to do this:
1. I can give the -d option to spamc where it's invoked in the mail
system, with t

While reading the "html picture spam" thread, it occurred to me to
check the sizes of Ham hitting Barracuda.
The largest one was 113,351 bytes.
I then checked the nation-of-origin for all Barracuda hitting
"large" spams (msg size >= 256 kb), and (during the 3-week period
I checked) only 4 out of

Sure. Have them send you an email with the opt-out request and edit the

I wasn't clear. I'm suggesting the user delete them. Overaggressive
spam filters that get false positives are much more dangerous to email
than spam.

A lot of spams arrives here with URI like strings containing spaces, e.g.:
