Hello everyone,

I've been receiving several pieces of spam from different senders and
the only similarity in the messages that I've found so far is that their
>From email address domains all start with the letter "i".
A few are:

@ifallover.com
@iexcelleration.com
@idetermination.com

As I said there are tons of other words used after the "i" and I was
wondering how to go about combating these pieces of spam.

One thing that did jump out at me was the X-Mailer:  PowerMail
v9020190.  PowerMail can "deliver messages with thousands of recipients
instantly" as stated on it's Freshmeat.net page.  Seems some over open
source developers are helping to boost spam instead of defend against
it.

I can't rule out all X-Mailer: PowerMail emails as I think MacOS X has
an email client that is called PowerMail.

I'm attaching one of these pieces of spam to see if anyone has any
suggestions.

Note: When this message was received in Nov I was running SA 2.55.  I've
now upgraded to 2.61.

Thanks,
Kevin
