Subject: [9fans] yahoo calendar spam
Date: Sun, 15 Feb 2009 12:25:23 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <fc8212df041ea25eefd8a3f61e41e2a0@quanstro.net> (raw)

i'm getting 100-200 connections per hour from
yahoo calendar with nigerian spam stuff.  here's
the least aggressive patch fix i could think of
without modifying smtpd to also get the reply-to
address.  unfortunately, this means that all mail
from yahoo calendar is blocked.  but it's better
than blocking all of yahoo.

this change is in /n/sources/contrib/quanstro/src/nupas.

the funky eval is to allow regular expressions in the list.
