Yah know, that does suggest there should be a "whitelist_to" option for
those who setup honeypot accounts.
(That way, Theo, spam COULD be sent to this list.
I'm pretty sure SpamAssassin already has a similar feature. I think
it's called whitelist_to. :)
man Mail::Spamassassin::Conf
Doesn't show it unless I scanned too fast. Which I did. So consider it
a wry comment about the spam scanning at Apache.org. One would THINK they
would be consuming their own coffee and using SpamAssassin, wouldn't one?
So there is no THEORETICAL reason they cannot allow spam to the SA list
or simply spammy message portions for "whyinelldidthisgetthrough?"
Sure there is. Any spam that is accepted gets sent to the list
moderators, who I would assume (theoretically) would rather not have it.
THAT begs for a whole host of smart<oops> replies and observations I
think I will leave for others to make or assume.
In any case, paste bot, etc., works fine, if not better.
20 seconds out of the way - it ain't worth it. Data lost until someone
else complains. I just build a rule and go on my way. Sometimes the rule
works well, sometimes not. By the time I know which it is the SARE crew
has rules for it.
But if I catch a problem in SpamAssassin I do like to let folks know,
such as that bug in the special code for QMAIL headers that came up a
little bit ago. Broach it here first to see if others have experience
with the bug then BZ it, if I can survive the GUI from Hades itself.
