I've done really good with blocking spam up until this one...
It looks like a "legitimate" e-mailer from both the system perspective and the system perspective. When I look at my logs, the servers are reporting their domains correctly so their mailserver looks ok when attacking to my server. Each email seems to be coming from numerous different servers so I can't block on server address... They say don't do "spamming" but the area in the email that contains the link to remove yourself/unsubscribe is an image so you can't click on it, instead you have to type it in by hand. I normally don't proceed down that path but I decided to try it anyway. When I put in the email address of the user that was being sent these survey offers for gift cards I got a message stating please allow 10 days for removal which makes me think they are not legit. The question is... Since everything is configured on their servers ok and the messages don't contain words I can really create a rule on.. It's not just home depot, it's KFC, Macy's and numerous other retailers. Anyone have any ideas on how to block these? The poor user is getting about 10 / day.
