Hello list,

This was in my log:

I'm guessing relayed but the message content was unquestionably spam.

I am not being inundated with these, but it got me wondering; what elegant ways might be available to deal with spam originating from "legitimate" SMTP sources (assuming we can loosely label Yahoo as such) when stuff like this occurs?
