Re: SPAM

Robert:

Using exim with RBL enabled to just quietly drop inbound SPAM pretty well
eliminated SPAM here. The RBL is at:

http://maps.vix.com/rbl/

The Internet Junkbuster http://junkbuster.com/ is also a source of much info.

SPAM control is addressed on both these sites.

I still see the occasional "this is not spam because ...." mail, though.
New and improved non-spam spam. Heh.
