Re: Check Mail ruleset

From having dealt with my share of spam
over these past few years I find that
user and domain level blocking are the
equivalent of trying to hold mercury in
your hands; simply can't be done effectively
for long.  Far better to do subject: 
based blocking.  This gets you around
the problem of forged email addresses.
I know how to do this with regular mail
but need to learn it for procmail myself.
Another block it's good to have is one
which blocks all messages with a blank
subject: line, and that's another recipe
I could use.  Our i.s.p. recently converted
over to linux and we have procmail 3.10
on this system now.  No idea when or if
it gets updated, but it has made life
much more liveable.
