Thanks Jim. Apparently you think it's ok to make fun of the handicapped. Just because I have an eye in the middle of my forehead and one big fang. Sheesh.

Ok. Maybe there's another explanation. See, SA can be used by lots of different people. Trolls included. Not everyone uses SA by piping it through procmail. I know; the better people do it that way, but I prefer to reject all of my spam before reception is complete by using spamass-milter with sendmail and rejecting during reception, rather than using the Hansel and Gretel approach with procmail.

I agree wholeheartedly with Steven. We happen to use SA with sendmail & the spamass-milter as a front end to the corporate MS Exchange servers where we work. This lets us both flag potential spam for our employees (they bitch if they think even one legitimate e-mail can get lost) and also block obvious spam if the SA score is extremely high. It's a feature of the spamass-milter for sendmail.


I too would like to be able to have SA recognize these worms so that we can set the SA score high enough that sendmail will reject the e-mail rather than forward it on to our Exchange servers for delivery to our employees.
