Especially, those who # have experience of administration of mail servers # (qmail,james,sendmail etc.). As Brian told us, it was based on the script what i suggested in various ways -- it appears. This "pattern" rejects all the e-mails written in japanese/russian/korean/taiwanese/chinese -- in "Subject:" header line. (Please refer to RFP for "MIME") Most of spam mails in japanese/russian/korean/taiwanese/chinese have MIME encoded subject header line. So, I thought it that it would be nice to *spamwatch* mails in such pattern -- in order to reduce the *burden*s of *.apache.org mailing list moderators and perhaps most of the committers who are normally using "latinized" languages --. What I *suggested* was ... perl script for individual committers not for *default settings in mail server* -- but ... it turned out that it could have choked my neck. apache.org server have come to REJECT my private mails ... since 28th May, 2004. "Sinsetu kokoro no GYAKU kouka" -- Of course, I can tell you that I would not complain if there were some nice notifications and "how-to" documents there. [EMAIL PROTECTED] list is very nice list for *notification*s and *communication*s for such. I do not think it that (Brian's) spamwatch perl script is not nice. Rather, really nice it has been. -- I do believe it that apache.org is tackling spamming issues in TOP Level (By the way, congratulations spamassassin guys! -- TLP now!) and it deserves praise. Please let me know if you have troubles in multi-byte issues. I want to *communicate* more -- if i could enough *right* (karma?) to do.
