dollar sign in subject
Every time any of you place a dollar sign ($) in the subject line, it gets tossed into the deleted file here. This is due to the vast amount of spam being sent over the Internet. I dare say there are many more who have such a filter. It means that a number of your emails will not be seen by a number of us out here. Suggest that you avoid such things in the subject line.

Every time any of you place a dollar sign ($) in the subject line, it gets tossed into the deleted file here. Those are pretty draconian filters you have. I can see filtering $$$ subject lines (as I do locally), but subject lines that contain $ should be further analyzed for common spam language (money, free, order, etc.). I set up the procmail filters at my local ISP, so we run through various scoring rules to see how much a $ subject line should really be considered spam.

How about a dollar sign followed by numeric digit(s) as a spam rule? -Original Message- From: Morbus Iff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 18, 2001 3:14 PM To: Wayne; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: dollar sign in subject Every time any of you place a dollar sign ($) in the subject line, it gets tossed into the deleted file here.

Re: dollar sign in subject
Just for the record, I have changed that filter, and set up one as per the suggestion to use number and dollar sign. Trying to learn what to filter and what not to filter.
