Failure of fgrep?

1997-05-31 12:13:00
Just had a spam get through my filters today.  

This is the filter that failed:

:0fwh
* ? fgrep $SENDER $FOLKS
| $FORMAIL -I"X-good: yes"

If the header is present, the mail does not get "despammed".

I get the variable $SENDER, this way.  FOLKS is just the file where I keep
my list of people I want to hear from.  

FROM=`$FORMAIL -zrx To:`
SENDER=`echo $FROM | sed -e 's/@.*//'`

The headers of the offending message are:

Return-Path: <NWS(_at_)juno(_dot_)com>

I do not have any form of nws in my FOLKS listing, and juno is on my watch
site list.  Nor do I have a verbose log for this, since I wasn't expecting
it.

Q:  What is "SMOORPLAY"?
A:  It's what SMURFS do before they SMUCK, of course!
