[OT] Re: how do you protect from spammers in Debian lists?

I get bounces from clueless mail admins all the time.  If they'd spend
two seconds scanning the original's Received: headers, they'd know I
had nothing to do with it.  Blast it back to those fools and tell them
to read email headers, and turn off their idiotic mail-bot until they
do (if at all).

Spammers are forging From: addresses, have been for at least a year,
and anyone who looks at mail headers can see whether it's been done.
Spamcop isn't fooled by moronic tricks like this.  It drills down and
finds the real culprit.
