help on recipe

2009-05-18 20:03:25
Hello:

 

A while ago I implemented a simple rule to flag those messages which their
destination matched their supposed sender; just a simple but effective
recipe to take care of those spam messages pretending to be sent from the
user that it is receiving it.

 

Snippet of each user's .procmailrc file

 

 

######################################

#Send message from "myself" to /dev/null

:0:

* ^From:.*<email-address-here>$

/dev/null

 

# Accept all the rest to your default mailbox

:0:

${DEFAULT}

######################################

 

But now the bastards stopped putting the receiver's email address in the
"From" field, now it is in the "Reply-To" field.

 

Is this a valid updated recipe?

 

:0:

* ^(From|Reply-To):.*<email-address-here>$

/dev/null

 

 

 

Thank You,

Alex Rodriguez
