Can this be done in procmail?

am 09.05.2006 02:34:38 von Sam the Sham

I have a domain with multiple email accounts I get the same spam crap
emails to at least 4 accounts at a time, the sender changes on each email
but the subject and body are the same.

Is there any way to detect via counter or something if the clown sends it
to 2 or more people , /dev/null it so it won't go to the rest of the email
accounts. Only the first account will get the email.

Probably. But I don't help effing trolls.

[Note: I don't read the articles of "Sam" or his numerous
sockpuppets or his 'friends', nor any responses to them, and
haven't for years. He follows me all over the Usenet, and I
still don't read his articles. This _really_ pisses him off.

Alan,

I have no idea what warrented that response. I was just asking for
help. The only post that's mine in that list is the comp.mail.misc. I'm
not "following" you.
I still am looking for help with this issue. If you can't help
that's ok, but it sure did not warrent that type of response.

FAQ: Canonical list of questions Beavis refuses to answer (V1.50)

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://www.pearlgates.net/nanae/kooks/ac/

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 your Challenge-Response spam filter works so well, why are you munging
your address, when posting to Usenet?

2) 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?

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

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

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

6) 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?

7) 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?

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

9) 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?

10) 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?

11) You regularly post alleged logs of your procmail recipe autodeleting a
bunch of irrelevant mail that you've received. Why, and who exactly do you
believe is interested in your mail logs?

12) How exactly do you "enforce" an "order" to stay out of your mailbox,
supposedly (http://tinyurl.com/cs8jt)? Since you issue this "order" about
every week, or so, apparently nobody wants to follow it. What are you going
to do about it?

13) What's with your fascination with shit? (also http://tinyurl.com/cs8jt,
and http://tinyurl.com/qv296)?

14) You complain about some arch-nemesis of yours always posting forged
messages in your name. Can you come up with even a single URL, as an example
of what you're talking about?

15) You always complain about some mythical spammers that pretend to be
spamfighters (http://tinyurl.com/br4td). Who exactly are those people, and
can you post a copy of a spam that you supposedly received from them, that
proves that they're really spammers, and not spamfighters?

Yes it can be done, you would need to determine whether the recipients
are in To, CC. You essentially need to determin what the pattern is.

Are you running your own mail server? Which mail server are you using?
What anti-spam schemes are you using besides procmail? Do you have
procmail configured with suid and is globally configured?

There are different variations that come into play.

AK
P.S. Pay no attention to the knuckle head Alan Connor (bait to confirm
that counter to his statements, he reads/retrieves messages).

So "Sam" is trying to get a cartoon character to answer his

Must be off his meds.

Why don't you ask Bigfoot to answer your questions, "Sam"?

You know. The next time he sneaks into the city and taps
on your window to give you an "Update".

A.C is paranoiac. He believes that most posters are either a troll or
Sam.The fact that he has no proof to substantiate such accusations
is of little consequence to him.

So, Beavis is having another kookfart.

He doesn't know, Beavis. He defers to you as the ultimate authority on your
own kookfarts.

Funny that you mentioned it. I just got a message from Bigfoot asking me to
pass along to you a message -- you need to head down to your local clinic
and get a full blood work-up done.

Not sure what that's all about.

You could use bogofilter bogofilter.sf.net. But bogofilter needs to be
trained before it start working effectively. Spamassasin is another
anti-spam.

Have you considered enabling dnsbl? www.openrbl.org has some lists that
you could use to prevent known spammers from connecting to your server.

The below is availble on the net:
# Use a 10Kb cache of Message IDs received to avoid duplicate messages
:0 Whc: .msgid.lock
| formail -D 10240 .msgid.cache

# Save probable duplicates for inspection
:0 a:
dups


note though, that this recipe can not distinguish between good and bad
duplicates.

Have a look at http://www.sendmail.com/opensource/welcome// for
additional options.

I like the SpamBouncer, which is a set of procmail recipes written by
Catherine A. Hampton:

The SpamBouncer is GPL'd, and my only affiliation is that of a
satisfied end user.
