First you get all of the spam from addresses. I did that by exporting from Thunderbird to text files, and then using grep to grab all of the "From:" lines. Then I massaged the data in gnumeric, to pull unique "[email protected]". I have 43 so far, and 65% are Gmail. In Thunderbird, one can create a filter on Inbox that selects messages by from address, forwards them somewhere, and then puts them wherever you like, or deletes them. So you configure a filter for each one, and forward messages to the appropriate abuse address. > On Fri, Sep 21, 2018 at 2:35 PM Mirimir <[email protected]> wrote: > >> On 09/21/2018 01:24 PM, Keifer Bly wrote: >>> >>> ➢ There are lots of technical folk on these tor lists. >>> There ought to be at least a few who'd enjoy killing some spam servers. >>> >>> What exactly do you mean by “killing them”?
