There are an infinite variety of "solutions" to the "spam problem", and the problem is that what solves the problem 100% for some sites is not even a 5% solution for others, but the people who implemented that solution don't know or care that works well for them won't necessarily work well for others -- they think they have the FUSSP (see <http://www.rhyolite.com/anti-spam/you-might-be.html>), but they have not understood the true nature of the FUSSP. In my experience, SpamAssassin is one good tool in the kit, and there are a variety of ways to install and configure it, and if you haven't recently explored all of those ways then you might want to check out the latest versions. That said, SpamAssassin is most definitely not the FUSSP, and you will most likely need to also use other tools in your kit to help you fight this battle. -- Brad Knowles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> LinkedIn Profile: <http://tinyurl.com/y8kpxu> ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
