Belknap" Sender: Lojban list From: "Steven M. Belknap" Subject: spams To: Veijo Vilva Content-Length: 931 Lines: 19 For those annoyed by karen@uni.masey.ac.nz (Unverified) and her ilk, I have found a filter which appears to be useful, although not perfect. In honor of Karen, I am now implementing my filter on the lojban list as well. I am using the commercial version of Eudora. This e-mail program has an easy-to-use filtering capability; the problem has been what to use as a flag. The best flag I've found appears to be the header line. I have Eudora check the contents of this line to see if the (Unverified) appears. Spammers generally generate an (Unverified) on my e-mail. Over the 8 months, no non-spam posters to the lojban list have generated an (Unverified) tag in the header line. A big razzberry to karen. Steven M.
