The one website that showed howto install spamassassim and-or these blacklist sites (with sendmail) seemed to suggest not to use too many sites. I dropped in two sites and noticed the misc spam fall off just since noon, Seattle time. I just installed the new dspam (2.10.6) and got the mysql link going. When I have this working too I'll write up a cheat-sheet tutorial and put it up at bsd.thought.org. gary PS: Warren, while I was poking around this morning I found spamhaus's list. These guys get 5 gold stars... . -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
