Hi MDean, cc ctm-users@freebsd.org The header of the 2nd spam shows mx1.freebsd.org received spam Not from att.net but from que11.charter.net so "Lawrence Auster" <lawrence.auster@att.net> is likely an innocent who had his address masqueraded by a spammer. Not much use writing to whole list anyway, we don't have power to block persistent spammers from freebsd.org lists, if some other time you have a similar request send it to postmaster@freebsd.org ( There's also another similar address goes to a team @freebsd.org, I can't remember whatever@ off hand, you can look on http://freebsd.org but postmaster@ is an RFC requirement, & works ) Even better is to examine header, & report spammer to the domain owner, if you think domain owner might not also be a spammer. (use a web browser on domains in header to decide that), and ensure you forward whole spam including whole header, in this case to postmaster@charter.net Cheers, Julian -- Julian Stacey: BSDUnixLinux C Prog Admin SysEng Consult Munich www.berklix.com Mail plain ASCII text.
