Hello List Members,

As I can see most of the spam messages are in Chinese / Japanese. Since
this is an English-only mailing list I would like to suggest blocking all
messages containing such Chinese / Japanese characters in body, or at least
marking all of them with the word [SPAM] in subject (so mail clients will be
able to deliver it to the Spam folder). AFAIK PHP lists use some home-grown
moderator so doing this should be an easy task.

course that may affect some legal users that have such characters in
their signatures, but in this case it sounds reasonable just to reply with
an email explaining blocking policy so any legal user will know what to do
to get his message go through the moderator.

What do you think?

I think you should quit whining like a spoilt brat *lol*. I get
something like 3 a day. Big fricking whoop.

Cheers,
Rob.

This doesn't work for spam.

just wait till we have spambots with AI and emotion subroutines ;-)

Having that said, feel free to set up procmail or something like that, to
block message with chinese/japanese characters.

Every spam I receive via this list, I report to spamcop (provided that it's less than 3 hours old).

I don't know if that does anything, but at least I "feel" like I'm doing something.

Dear Denis and List members,

I am very tired of deleting spam messages received from PHP mailing lists

uuI was tired more than you are,Denis,undoubtedly.
Because I am a Japanese.I think that the person who can not read
Japanese spam is fortunate.

As I can see most of the spam messages are in Chinese / Japanese.

The Japanese spammer is sending spam to us from "pair.com".
So I added in a header_checks file of my postfix:

/message-ID:.*pair.com/ DISCARD

Since I added that,the japanse spam doesnt't reach.

The list may lock mails of contents(body) written in japanese,I think.
The PHP mailing list for the people who read and write Japanese exists
in Japan.I don't join in that my-home-ground's list,because I can buy
books related with PHP which was written in Japanese.There is good
introducers of PHP in Japan(there is not only spammer but also good
programmer in Japan!).The reason why I join to this English version is
that I wants to get advices earlier than publishing new books related
with PHP in Japan.

Unfortunately I am not familiar with English to the extent that I can
send advice to my dear list in each time,but I always appreciate
members.

Wishing not to dislike Japanese because of Japanese spammer.

Thank you for reading.

With Love,

Madoca

Hmm I do not know, what you are talking about, but in the last 2 month
I have received no singel SPAM

Are you using Windows?
Is your E-Mail hit by a spamer directly?

I was wondering about

I use Debian Sarge/3.1, fetchmail, procmail, maildrop, courier, php5

I fixed them.

is what stopped the idiots.
