In a perfect BOFH world, I would just block 211.0.0.0/8 :D But, I'd say the best way to filter out that subject line would be just by using the the Imail filters. It's very unlikely that a legit message would ever use that *exact* subject, so I think you'd be okay.

Hello, All, I have a question concerning the best way to go about filtering out a specific e-mail message. For an overview of the current state of our spam filtering setup please see an e-mail I just sent to the list with the subject "Where I'm At Now and Where Should I Be Going?".
OK, below I have included the headers for an e-mail that one of my users forwarded to me. I have removed the username...

The current "hold weight" for PAGEROVER.COM is WEIGHT12. Obviously the weight of this message is substantially lower than that.
I could use my SENDERBLOCK list to block this individual sender ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) but that seems to specific a solution, i.e. a waste of a perfectly good entry which could so so much more. And I can't go too general and use the domain (comcast.net) because I'm sure there's much legitimate e-mail emanating from the domain name. I know there has to be a test built into Declude for situations like this but I'm not quite sure where to look. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how they would handle this situation?
All feedback is appreciated.
Thanks, Much! Dan Geiser [EMAIL PROTECTED]
