I have just solved my first problem. Now, I can send e-mails via php and
they are scanned by SA. My solution is using another computer to send
e-mails across private lan.

Hi,
this spam jumped through my surbl rules
(see below)
They obviously used hex for the .(dot)
- smart way to get around surbl.
I am running sa 2.63 (I know, I need

IIRC the CDT study found that putting addresses on web sites was
a very effective way to get them spammed:

This will NOT work.
Receiving a spam after it has been forwarded is NOT the same as
receiving the SPAM directly from the spammer. All the headers will be

Nick,
You make some good points which I'm sure others might need to know.
In MY case, it doesn't matter because (1) I don't use bayes, (2) I'm

copy the message file to the other folder WITHOUT adding additional headers.

Good points, Nick.
Well, in that case, I'd go with Nick's suggestion that this is NOT a good
way to build a spamtrap or bayes training corpus. But it still might be
effective for "personal" use where an administrator would personally
evaluate such mail

So reusing an old mailbox and assuming it must all be spam I would say

Unfortunatly you can't. You only have one shot to reject the email from

to deliver the message.
