What fraction is actually spam? What fraction is useful? What happened to ARF? Was it useful? Does anybody use it? (When I looked at it, many years ago, it didn't seem to fit what I was trying to report.) How much would it help if there was a machine readable format for spam reports? What would you want in such a report? Are comments like "sent to a spamtrap" or "harvested from usenet" or "repurposed from xxx" helpful? How often do you need more than just a copy of of the spam? For example, if the spammer rotates his server address, it may have moved between when I looked it up and when you look it up. Would it help to split spam reporting/processing/thinking/discussions into good and bad? Good being marketers trying too hard (or pick your excuse) and bad being crooks: 419, phishing, pills, ... -- These are my opinions. I hate spam. _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
