I see we have been hit by another flood of spam. Who lowered the floodgates?
;-)
I've seen a slight increase in spam sent to me directly slipping through
my spamassassin filters, but nothing like the flood coming from
debian-user. I also recently started using greylisting on my mail
server and suspect that it's helping immensely with the direct spam, but
it can't do anything for stuff that's forwarded by a list.
Does anyone happen to know whether the d-u list server uses greylisting
(and, if not, why not)?
I have no idea but I wish they could block this stuff. I have just
marked up 103 spam messages and, as a relatively new subscriber, am
wondering whether the cost is worth the benefit.
