Brian,
Don't know if this will help, but if
your rpm database is corrupt, maybe
Shadowman's technique will work for you.

Also for people having the NVidia

I use Spamcop (http://spamcop.net/) to parse my headers. It takes a few
seconds and gives you the opportunity to report the spammer, but you can
