[VoIP] Spam Filter

[Ben Jackson]

The simpler solution, IMHO, would be having the list "moderator" disallow posting from non-subscribed addresses, I don't thinkthis list does and I've never noticed that we've had much, if any, problems with spam. 

Blacklists are handy, however, I am of the opinion that they should never be used as a end-all solution. I use them, but they do not "make the call" as it were. I use the blacklist, along with other methods to "score" each message to determine whether it is probably spam or not.

Just my $0.02USD...

Okay, guys.  Get ready to send me angry email; I have been pursuaded to
try the email blacklist zen.spamhaus.org by one of my list
administrators who is sick of getting spam.
 
He swears by it -- says that it blocks all the spam, and he hasn't had a
single complaint from people being unable to post to the lists he
administers elsewhere.  (Speaking of "administers," does it grate on
anyone else's nerves but mine when people use the word "administrate"?)
 
So, **if** something you posted does NOT show up, contact me on my yahoo
email address:
