Re: handling spam from gmail.

ding users who wish to communicate with your users. - by raising the "cost" of sending legitimate mail to your users, you will of course receive less legitimate mail along with less spam. - for business transactions this costs business/money; eg. if faced with such a system upon initial contact, I myself would choose to not "click the link" and merely go to a competitor if there are other reasonably equivalent businesses. not an absolute deal breaker, but definitely a strong turn-off. -- Jesse Norell Kentec Communications, Inc. 970-522-8107 - www.kci.net

aining users to forward as attachment, then piecing things back together. If that's an option you'll pursue and you can use dovecot as your imap server, check out https://github.com/jnorell/train-spam-scanner as a training script. It's designed for exactly the goals you have in mind, ie. users supplying training messages which can be moderated and built into a corpus. -- Jesse Norell Kentec Communications, Inc. 970-522-8107 - www.kci.net
