Filter on HTML content? (most of this spam will have image tags and font formatting tags in them, perhaps you can filter on any message that contains an image tag and a font formatting tag? You can't filter on standard HTML headers because most email readers that understand HTML don't need those) >Also, there has been mention on another mailing list I subscribe to, of >a change of policy at yahoo.com such that they now sell e-mail addresses >to third parties (ie spammers).

Heh thats why you give each place a different email address (my raybotlst address is only for this list for instance). >Does the 'news.admin.net-abuse.email' group have a mailing list feed?
