Hi,
How do people generally deal with these?
They, and the some of the network around them, are promoted to my
packet filter for a few months. If I see nothing in 3 months or so,
they get unblocked. To easy the load on my packet filter, not on the
spammers.
These are messages being forwarded through our system through the user's
local .forward file.
That brute-force method wouldn't work here. I would like to better
identify the unsolicited email, however, particularly those google think
are unsolicited.
Are they alerted when these are received so they can be
managed/deleted or the accounts disabled, etc?
Nope. Any packets they send me are just ignored (after the first
one).
If you're not alerted, how do you know it's happening? That was my first
question - so I don't have to read every single email, and the ones in
question stand out.
Thanks,
Alex
