spams

["Steven M. Belknap" <sbelknap@UIC.EDU>]

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 <X-Sender:> 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 <X-Sender:> header line. A big razzberry to karen.
