I came up with a set of rules which appear to catch the new strain of spam with a meaningless jumble of words in the body, while hope- fully not catching any legitimate mail. See below; comments welcome, and (naturally) everyone is free to use these rules if you want to.
Regarding my body rule (__MPOP_HTML1): The first line of text in the message body, before the graphic and the nonsense text, is broken up by meaningless HTML end tags. For example, a line in a recent spam that showed up as "Free Cable_ TV" looked like this in the raw HTML: <p>Fr</sickroom>ee Ca</runic>ble_ TV</p> Rich Wales [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.richw.org ======================================================================== header __MPOP_MAILER X-Mailer =~ /mPOP Web-Mail 2\.19/ header __MPOP_SUBJ1 Subject =~ /Re: [A-Z]+, \S+ \S+ \S+/ header __MPOP_SUBJ2 Subject =~ /Re: \%RND_UC_CHAR\[2-8\], \S+ \S+ \S+/ rawbody __MPOP_HTML1 /<p>\w+<\/\w+>\w+/ meta MPOP_SPAM (__MPOP_MAILER && (__MPOP_SUBJ1 || __MPOP_SUBJ2) && __MPOP_HTML1) describe MPOP_SPAM Spam from mPOP Web-Mail score MPOP_SPAM 10.0 ======================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
