It doesn't notify the sender's ISP one way or the other. | Also, the way I've always dealt with spam was to not just block it, | but when feasible to complain to the relevant abuse@ISP addresses | and/or the FTC when it is particularly egregious. Does the -r option | do this, or simply contribute the spam to the blocking services? The '-r' option will report to Vipul's Razor. "razor" is a tool that checks a checksum of a message against a (distributed) database of checksums for known spam messages. SA (optionally) includes RAZOR_CHECK as one of the tests. I don't know if SA reports to any other services (the docs I've read don't mention any), but they're probably all just automated tools that operate like SA anyways. If you want to report abuse to an ISP you'll have to do that personally. -D -- If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
