if you'd go read their info, we wouldn't be going in circles....

here... this is from their FAQ... and yes, they really do bounce them:

Have you tried masturbating?
It relieves stress when You don't have a companion to do it for You :1orglaugh

You are misreading this. The bounced bounce e-mail never touches your inbox...the original spam does.


BTW, mail sent to you and I haven't received it back. Of course, that is your spam addy, so you obviously didn't receive it. But had it been your real e-mail addy, you would have received it. Your program would block that e-mail addy in the future, but I would use another fake address next time. And it would get through.

We are going around in circles, because you don't understand the functionality of mailwasher completely or perhaps e-mail completely.

If the program blocked the originating computer's IP address and domain, that would work. If the program could tell if a return address was fake, that would work.

I'm pretty sure mailwasher doesn't do either, so I can't see how effective the program could be. It might stop like 2%, but that's pretty much useless.

because now that you've sent one, (yes, I saw it in mailwasher) you're on the blacklist / auto-bounce / auto-delete list.... I'll never see another mail from you. Whether it actually came back to you or not, doesn't much matter to me....

I have a program that will work for you..

Its called "hitting the delete key"

try it, hey - its free and you do not have to download anything..

all I can tell ya brock, is that I used to get several HUNDRED spams a day to my inbox..... now with mailwasher, I think maybe two or three actually make it to mailwasher, and they are added to the list as soon as I see them....

now if that's the definaition of "ineffective", I'll take it.

You are complaining about ONE spam that came to your box.... I personally would have simply deleted it and moved on with life, but since you were looking for a solution.... I think mailwasher can handle it quite easily.


I'm not a server guru or a spam professional or a programmer or anything else... but I know I have eliminated several hundred daily spams with this thing.


that's all I'm saying. If you don't feel it is adequate, then don't use it.... it's no skin off my ass.

hold on let me find al gores email... he will personally take care of it for you and send you and apology letter on behalf of the internet.

thanx Amp for the great link

plus, it's alot less taxing on the system than leaving Outlook open all day, and alot less taxing on my sanity than seeing spam flooding into my box all day and robbing my time to manually delete them. For a free program, I personally think it's the best thing since the invention of the CD burner.

Interesting read that is on topic.

Good read, thnx for the link.

SOMEBODY needs some anger management counseling.

brock, just download the fucking software and try it, instead of whining to recieve the same answers. gfy

Sorry to bump an old thread, but damn this was hilarious reading.....


and very enlightening re: broke landers.


:1orglaugh out loud.

Only one way to do it without taking Prozac...Have your local ISP change your email addy...And quit signing up for shit with it..Or putting it in chat rooms, bots are everywhere..LOL

Spamcop must be one of the the biggest piles of shit in existence. As a person who runs a rather large network I have blocked all the traffic from them, including mail for the following reasons:

- their automated system spams admins with spam reports that did not pass any real validation. The same issue gets reported over and over again.

- they tend to block addresses outside the scope of the spamming network (if spam originates from one IP address it does not mean that that whole freaking class C is spamming)

- they are impossible to deal with and tend to keep your block of IPs in the blacklist for days even after the issue is resolved

So my solution to the problem is, ignore the motherfuckers. There are better way to prevent spam like RBL and Vipul's Razor.

ok what was he spamming

:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup

How funny - Someone complaining about Spam on an adult board. Go figure.

I had the same email address for eight years. I pretty much kept it private, but that last year I was flooded with spam email. One rather offensive spam came about girls & farm animals came in at least four times every day. I contacted the site but got nothing. I contacted the bililng company in some former Soviet Block country and they replied that there was nothing they could do.

Bullshit.

So I created a new email address on my server for me to use, and forward everything at the old address to the customer support center email address. Fuck them.

AMP,

That program looks great. Thanks for da linkup!

read how a spammer thinks.. good luck with ANY revenge, bahahahhahaha

fuck with a spammer- and its just another game to them...

oh yeah, and guess how many isp ignore spamcop abuse letters.. you think they care after getting the same fucking form complaint day after day.. make a filter for spamcop, right to the trash


and you all keep forgeting, if it wasn't for spam, you'd all have a lot less traffic, and all the anti spammers would have to find something else to cry about.. maybe how much their pussies hurt. go back to playing D&D every night of the week too

Thanks scoreman. Interesting reading. There is a link in there that was very useful as well: Spam Laws

and one other small thing.. don't make a attack on the originating ip like you suggested... you'll just burn your own bandwidth and get yourself in trouble.

The chances are it's just a blind relay, or a proxy. And even if they were sending from their own server direct, I would suggest that their bandwidth would be savage, and regardless who won the battle, the only one to get their account canned would be yours.

I realise you said it in gest and disgust, I'm just hoping you didn't give any ideas to newbies with their first "entry level server"
The poor buggers will wish they never got a dedicated.

if you ask me the serious anti spammers are worser than spammer,, lol they get real personal
death threats stalkin

like amp suggested prevention is the best solution.
going after it is basically a waste of time, like someone said
bout spamcop is even worthless now


i personally like to read spam, it lets me know whats the biggest sellers online are

:thumbsup

You probably don't have the originating ip. You probably just have the ip of a patsy.

now I could have helped you.....but you don´t understand my
english....so the best advice I´ll give you now is this:

Read the Fucking Sendmail/Qmail or whatevery SMTP
software you use. It´s not that hard. Look under filtering
mail

Enjoy asshole :321GFY

Try control C

I'm opening a book on this guy. Two catagories.

One
How long will he last before he becomes bored being called a tosser. In months.

Two
He is really someone like Amp or Aaron just pissing with us.

Bet away.

call the fbi, cia and secret service, have them dispatch 5 navy seals to the guys home address and have him beaten and tortured


or delete it, add to junk senders list and move on with your life
