Until the spammers, who are the world's foremost experts in the
SA type of spamfilter, find a way to beat you again.

DUH.

Only weeks of messing it with it this time?

You neglected to mention how much time you had to spend looking
through that spam for legitimate mail that SA might have
classified wrongly.

If you have to look at the headers, then the spammers have won,
because it is a given that you will look more closely at some of
it and will probably go to one or more of the websites given in
the spam, and maybe even buy something.

FAQ: Canonical list of questions Beavis refuses to answer (V1.00) (was Re: SpamAssassin (3.0.

This is a MIME GnuPG-signed message. If you see this text, it means that
your E-mail or Usenet software does not support MIME signed messages.

This is a canonical list of questions that Beavis never answers. This FAQ is
posted on a semi-regular schedule, as circumstances warrant.

For more information on Beavis, see:

http://angel.1jh.com/nanae/kooks/alanconnor.shtml

Although Beavis has been posting for a long time, he always remains silent
on the subjects enumerated below. His response, if any, usually consists of
replying to the parent post with a loud proclamation that his Usenet-reading
software runs a magical filter that automatically identifies anyone who's
making fun of him, and hides those offensive posts. For more information
see question #9 below.

============================================================ ================

1) If spammers avoid forging real E-mail addresses on spam, then where do
all these bounces everyone reports getting (for spam with their return
address was forged onto) come from?

2) If your Challenge-Response filter is so great, why do you still munge
when posting to Usenet?

3) Do you still believe that rsh is the best solution for remote access?
(http://tinyurl.com/5qqb6)

4) What is your evidence that everyone who disagrees with you, and thinks
that you're a moron, is a spammer?

5) How many different individuals do you believe really post to
comp.mail.misc? What is the evidence for your paranoid belief that everyone,
except you, who posts here is some unknown arch-nemesis of yours?

6) How many times, or how often, do you believe is necessary to announce
that you do not read someone's posts? What is your reason for making these
regularly-scheduled proclamations? Who do you believe is so interested in
keeping track of your Usenet-reading habits?

7) When was the last time you saw Bigfoot (http://tinyurl.com/23r3f)?

8) If your C-R system employs a spam filter so that it won't challenge spam,
then why does any of the mail that passes the filter, and is thusly presumed
not to be spam, need to be challenged?

9) You claim that the software you use to read Usenet magically identifies
any post that makes fun of you. In http://tinyurl.com/3swes you explain
that "What I get in my newsreader is a mock post with fake headers and no
body, except for the first parts of the Subject and From headers."

Since your headers indicate that you use slrn and, as far as anyone knows,
the stock slrn doesn't work that way, is this interesting patch to slrn
available for download anywhere?

Michael and Chris should not have to be told this.

Anyone using a common first name as their alias is probably
a troll. They do this to avoid being tracked through the

Please ignore any such posts: You are probably helping a troll be

If you using such an alias, then now you know why your posts

Pick a unique name (check to see if it has been used at the

It is a strange and very poorly-designed killfile that still tells you
someone is posting replies to your articles. Frankly, I think you're full
of shit. You read Sam's posts obsessively, in the vain hope that Sam will
invite you to the prom.

If your newsreader is so lame that it doesn't understand PGP-signed
messages, then you need to get a new one.

So, Michael gets killfiled because he responded to someone (me) that you've

My magic 8 balls say you are a troll and that I didn't read this poast. As a
crosscheck, I talked with Xena and Bigfoot. They both agree. :)
