[blocking email without a proper full name]
That being said it's still a bad idea.
Blocking can also mean: not letting it reach your
standard inbox. That isn't a bad idea.
Given the rule that was
sugested you would force any mail sent directly to you to have your
full (and correct) name attached to it, when having a descriptive name
acssociated with the email address is not a requirement.
That depends on how you interpret the question.
For some reason, Lennart included the From: header. Maybe he wants to
match both the From: and the To: against a regex-whitelist:
RE = '(\
^From:.*(Ed Lam|Lam, Eduard)?.*\<elam(_at_)fssp\(_dot_)com\>|\
^To:.*((L(\.|en(n?art))? )?Andersen(,
?L(\.|en(n?art))?))?)?.*\<lennart(_at_)rogers(_dot_)com\>\
)'
just to keep phony fullnames out.
So if someone slips up and leaves out the doubble 'n' or just uses
your first name. or doesn't include you name at all... just a bare
email, you would discard it.
That depends on the quality of your regexes.
As a scoring factor it might be usefull, but I wouldn't put too much
weight on it.
Yes, it is just another spam-factor.
