Hey folks. I have a quick question:
How long have those stupid spammers been inserting html comments into
HTML spam to sneak by filters meant to keep them out?
And more importantly, is there a relatively easy way to filter every
HTML message thru a dump to eliminate any HTML tags? Seems if I could
do that, those messages with stuff like this wouldn't get thru
anymore:
<center><font face="Arial,Helvetica">VP-RX PE<!--19341-->NIS <b><FONT
size=4>ENL<!--3353-->ARGEMENT</FONT></b> PI<!--21525-->LLS</font>
<br><font face="Arial,Helvetica">WI<!--10816-->LL EXPAND
LENG<!--22376-->THEN AND ENLA<!--9966-->RGE YO<!--25470-->UR
PENIS</font>
<br><font face="Arial,Helvetica"><b><FONT
size=4>10<!--7722-->0%</FONT></b> GUARA<!--7781-->NTEED!!</font><font
face="Arial,Helvetica"></font>
I'm just disgusted by this blatent effort to shove this crap down my
throat in spite of all my efforts to throw it out.
Personally, I wouldn't mind simply filtering ALL email with HTML tags
to be dumped to plain text in the mailbox. That would save me a lot
of disk space when people send me these enormous messages with 12
different fonts and email wallpaper, gifs out the wazoo, etc.. I use
Mutt because I just want the info in the message. Artistry is for web
pages for crying out loud!
Sorry if you disagree, but that's my $0.02.
Thanks all.
Lou
