AT&T PATENTS ANTI-ANTISPAM TECHNOLOGY
Critics ponder why AT&T would patent a technology that thwarts antispam
filters. The technology operates as a "system and method for counteracting
message filtering," according to its patent awarded on Nov 4. "Why is
AT&T

Recognizing this is not an SA question... but the Spam Experts are here,
so I hope someone can offer some insight.
My aunt uses Earthlink. Earlier this month, she found 4,000 old emails in
her inbox. Since then, she can log in, see she has new mail, but then it
disappears. Further, some of her fri

Not SA, but you people are my spam experts...
I'm getting a BUNCH of bounces where someone has used a return address
that returns to me. This address is commonly used by spammers (it's an
invalid address here, but I get all the mail with invalid usernames). The
mail is promoting onlineclicks.biz .
I like just having users set their filters based on X-SPAM_LEVEL. The
filter says if this header has this many stars, move the mail here. If it
has that many stars, move it there. This is an extremely simple way for
users to set their own level (or multiple levels).

It might be pointed out to the ISP that you need to add someone to your
whitelist, and ask them how to do it. Another way of handling it, since
SpamAssassin only marks mail and doesn't delete it, is to set up filters
in your email client to move messages marked SPAM (I like to do it using

Last week I posted a section of California law that permits ISPs
to sue spammers if the spammer has been notified that the ISP does not
accept spam. The law makes mention of automatic notification by the

sufficient. However, th
If you include it in your HELO string, I wonder if that's enough notification as
required by the previously mentioned California law?

Over the past few days I've been receiving bounces of mail I did not send.
The content of the mail is spam for spamming software. The ad itself is an
attachment. Headers and decoded attachment follow. Anyone else getting this? How
can SA deal with it?
Thanks!!!

I had SpamAssassin working great until last week when my ISP changed something.
Prior to
that, I did not need a .forward file. It seemed to run mail through the .procmailrc on

own. Well, the mail stopped going through SpamAssassin, and the spam started coming in!

I'm VERY new to SpamAssassin (experience now approaching 10 minutes)
and seem to have trouble with the install. This is running in my own
area on my ISP's Debian linux machine. The problem is when I run
"make", I get the following:
