People who know me by now know that one of my major spam problems is backscatter (and yes, I do consider it spam; it's unsolicited e-mail).

A common one that gets past SA is one with a subject like:

'Your message to Gatewayav-discuss awaits moderator approval'

Any tips for filtering these out? Trouble is there might occasionally be a mailing list I want to post to where I do get such a message, but I get a phenomenal number of such messages where it's obviously a spammer who has sent a msg to the list and joe-jobbed me. Worse still, the mail matches this, rule:

-4.0 RCVD_IN_DNSWL_MED RBL: Sender listed at http://www.dnswl.org/, medium trust

... meaning the mail probably won't get blocked by other factors. What can I do?

Best regards,
Jeremy Morton (Jez)
