' B*gger off if it bothers you sarel Don't take it personally, sarel. I got the same response from him when I drew attention to the "WMDH' spam (pressf1.co.nz) coming through lately. I just thought that since I administer email accounts for about 300 users, it might have been useful to know that WDMH can be safely added to the spam filter & to advise any users that do get this crap, to just delete it. Yes, we know it's all the same old scam; we're not that stupid. But many of our users are. Someone needs a hug.... :D	Peterj116 (6762)

If you spam filter based on static criteria like that you are bound to kill legitimate mail, and have a terribly crufty filtering setup. :groan:	ninja (1671)

Then add the ppl u want into its whitelist, and the spams/isps in the blacklist . Then you'll never seen spam again . You'll then get email from ppl u know, and nothing else .	Speedy Gonzales (78)
