You may want to concider a "spam filter". I decided to use one and it
was a good decision. I get around 200-300 spam a day. Yet I need to
field messages from my online users. My spam filter scans messages
from the To, From, Subject, and Body. It also has a "pass through" with
domains I don't want to filter. As I got spam I would added a phrase in
my spam filter body scan to catch them. Took me about a month to
build up my word list (use phrases as short words my get a legit e-mail,
"our customers, free viagra, xxx sluts, etc". You will "almost" never get
these in a legit e-mail). Now dispite all the spam my regular e-mails
come through and a spam may slip through once a week (getting
promptly added to the filter).
I have been on the Xitami list a few years now I believe. I don't recall
any spam from them (their address is unfiltered for me).
