spam blocker uninstall thoughts for 12.31.1969

  • Blacklisting is pretty ineffective at catching spam since it depends upon the from-address given by the spammer.
  • The spammers seldom re-use these forged or stolen addresses, so adding them to a blacklist could be a big waste of time.
  • A reverse web proxy takes requests from website visitors and relays them to the protected spam website, returning any data it receives from the protected site back to the visitor.
  • To the visitor, the proxy itself appears to be the spam website, and there is no good way to tell that it is actually only a proxy.
  • These logs are not only a useful tool for web site statistics and maintenance, but in tracking spambots as well.
  • Although floods can be annoying, they are not considered spam if each post contains unique and relavent material.
  • Aups generally include some provisions barring spam; some go as far as to forbid the customer using spam to promote services (like websites) offered using their facilities, even if the spam itself does not pass through their facilities.
  • Some ignorebots send a message indicating that the spammer is not abusing the isp's rules, or that the isp has no rules against spam, or in some other way indicates that no action will be taken.
  • Not responding to spam offers is the most obvious way to deal with the problem, becasue if there isn't a market then no one will bother to send spam.
