Spam slipping by filters


edrach

Recommended Posts

I recently received spam email which slipped past your filters so I submitted it by forwarding to the address for doing same. The autoreply did not recognize it as spam and returned an error message. This spam is unique in that both the to: and from: address are entered as my address; also the spam is either in Spanish or Portugeuse neither of which I speak. I've gotten a 2nd spam of the same nature (i.e. identical to: and from:) and would like to know how to submit it so that it gets reported and that similar spam doesn't make it past your filters and into my mailbox. Thanks otherwise for an excellent service.

Copy of received spam below:

Hi Ed!

Typically posting spam examples is discouraged except in the spamcop.spam newsgroup.

However, as best I can tell, you haven't posted the actual headers of the original message. The headers you have provided look to be the headers you have generated forwarding the message to Spamcop for filtering.

If anyone is going to be able to assist you I think you will need to provide the headers from the original message.

I can't tell for sure but it also looks like you might have forwarded the message without including the full message headers.

Perhaps a slip in choosing the forwarding options within your mail program. I don't use Outlook Express but if you get any more of this spam try re-submitting. Sadly this current example is out of time.

Andrew, thanks for the reply. Sorry, I wasn't aware of the "ettiquette" of not posting spam examples but wasn't sure of how to get my point across. Also, I'm not sure about having not sent the headers; I did forward the entire message from OE to the address given so I'm not sure how to address that problem. I'll ask my kid who's much more adept at this than I am (generally, I only know enough to keep myself out of trouble). What I did notice, and I suspect that this is how the spammer got through the filters, is that he put my email address in as the return address. I thought that was pertinent. I appreciate the clarification and will try to work out the details later. I did get one more piece of spam with my return address, but I held off on submitting it until I find how to properly forward it. ---Ed---

Hi, edrach,

...Another bit of netiquette that would be good to bear in mind is that it is considered good practice to look through FAQs and use "Search" capabilities. Performing a Search (there's a link so labeled at the top of almost all screens in these fora) on "Express" for "SpamCop Discussions" I see several hits, including Miss Betsy's reply in thread "spam, new member".
