You'll note my attribution line above; I match on "mooed" and whitelist it. This generalizes pretty well - you can put a little unique tag in your attribution line, subject, or .signature (I favor a uniquely formatted attribution line, myself) and whitelist the daylights out of it. Another tactic I use is whitelisting common formats of attribution lines. Spammers don't tend to quote messages back at you, thank goodness. This would be easy for them to subvert, but would also make their messages look strange. body ATTRIBUTION /^(at|on) .* wrote:$/i describe ATTRIBUTION BODY: quotes someone back score ATTRIBUTION -1 (I like this one a lot, personally - it caught 4 legitimate messages that made their way into my spam corpus). -Dave -- work: [EMAIL PROTECTED] me: [EMAIL PROTECTED] MIT Laboratory for Computer Science http://www.angio.net/ _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
