Another method of rejecting this sort of spam (forged from addresses) is to blacklist the domains that you host. This is counter intuitive, but works very well. Since all of your domains' users authenticate (they all do authenticate, right?), they will pass spamdyke's filters, and all imposters will be rejected. -- -Eric 'shubes' _______________________________________________ spamdyke-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.spamdyke.org/mailman/listinfo/spamdyke-users
