I'm aware of this. But they don't have information in their benefit, such as the person's full real name, or the simple fact of somebody looking out for it. It'd be exactly the same thing as sending an image from person to person, and we don't see any trouble with that. If you take the time to research how to send a good e-mail, it won't get caught by spam filters.
For example, when sending an HTML e-mail through the PHP mail() function, it'll usually be caught by filters. But start including headers such as "message-id", add a from address whose domain matches the message-id, and so on, and I can get a SpamAssasin score of 3.5 down to 0. So yes, Spam makes it more difficult to deliver these kinds of licenses but honest e-mails still work. If they didn't, we'd all be in big trouble. -- Thom McGrath, <http://www.thezaz.com/> "Only those who have the patience to do simple things perfectly will acquire the skill to do difficult things easily." - Johann Freidreich Von Schiller On Apr 8, 2007, at 2:21 AM, Andy Dent wrote: > On 08/04/2007, at 11:17 AM, Thom McGrath wrote: > >> The images were >> generated as an inline attachment. > > Most of the stock spam and some of the other categories are doing > exactly this now to avoid content-based detection. _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
