Hi All,

I loved the Xerox OCR reply but seriously would something like Vipul's
Razor help catch this stuff?  Any thoughts would be appreciated.  I'm
currently using spamcop to reject known spammers from sendmail 8.12.5.
>From there, I use MIMEDefang as my sendmail milter along with SpamAssassin
and then pass it off to either MS Exchange or Lotus Notes - depending on
the user.  User's mailboxes are then setup with rules to filter incoming
mail in order to move the tagged stuff to a junk mail folder for later
inspection.  The only spam that seems to get through this gauntlet is
foreign language (extremely rare) and the HTML image stuff.  The latter is
getting more and more popular from what I can tell.

Thanks in advance,

Roger Johnsen

We're seeing the same type of messages being received with SA in school
districts. Not much fun explaining why we can't block these messages.

Hate to spend $50,000 for a commercial pacakge that claims to block images.

Regards,

Damian

Subject: [SAtalk] New breed of SPAM?


Hi all,

First of all, SA has been setup and working extremely well in our
environment for some time now.  A problem recently started emerging where I
noticed SPAM messages getting through at even the lowest threshold scoring
and discovered the SPAM itself was comprised "mostly" of an image.  The
actual text of the message wasn't enough to trip SA into tagging it as
SPAM.  Has anyone seen similar and, if so, have you come up with a "best
solution" that you could share?

Thanks much,

Roger Johnsen
