The best thing is to upgrade to latest SA which does a terrific job using several URL black lists. This is a new feature in SA that looks for URLs in spam.

Re: Porn Spam
Hi! He's on 2.64 currently. You don't say what version of SA you are referring to. The best thing is to upgrade to latest SA which does a terrific job using several URL black lists. This is a new feature in SA that looks for URLs in spam. This will likely stop your problem without having to write special rules. You dont happen to have the SURBL plugin installed i guess? Would be wise to upgrade to SA 3.x or install the plugin for SURBL. See: http://sourceforge.net/projects/spamcopuri/ I am positive it will block most of the crap that you now see passing the filters. Bye, Raymond.
Re: Porn Spam
Any caveats to upgrading to 3.x? Any configs I need to check for overwrite? -- JAV -- Original Message --- From: Raymond Dijkxhoorn [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Joe Polk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: users@spamassassin.apache.org Sent: Mon, 21 Mar 2005 19:41:28 +0100 (CET) Subject: Re: Porn Spam Hi!

Re: Porn Spam
Hi! Any caveats to upgrading to 3.x? Any configs I need to check for overwrite? You should follow the docs, there is much mentioned there. Like upgrading your bayes databases. If you use those... You dont happen to have the SURBL plugin installed i guess? Would be wise to upgrade to SA 3.x or install the plugin for SURBL. See: http://sourceforge.net/projects/spamcopuri/ I am positive it will block most of the crap that you now see passing the filters. If you dont want or dont have the time to do it now, then at least install the plugin mentioned above. Works well also. Bye, Raymond.
Re: Porn Spam
IMHO, 3.x is by far the best and most efficient release to date. Just follow the doc. It's very easy. - Original Message - From: Joe Polk [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Raymond Dijkxhoorn [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: users@spamassassin.apache.org Sent: Monday, March 21, 2005 11:35 AM Subject: Re: Porn Spam | Any caveats to upgrading to 3.x?
