This is not an real problem. You can do with manpower a) make an "lacy" block list, like to insert phrase that where seen in spam - like 0190 XXXXXX or string that only used by virus "begin 666 www.friends.yohoo.com" - moderated list - harder Subscition (not easy to automaziation) But what is the effect ? There are maby 3% to 10% less traffic on the list but about 1-3 Hours more work per day for the person you manage this. I think this is not woth. On extrem high traffic lists with many spam there is an problem but not at this "low" level. Cu Thomas Lu�nig
