Hi August!

09 Apr 2020 10:31, from August Abolins -> Richard Menedetter:

 AA>>> I have toyed with the idea of replying to the ones that request
 AA>>> payment,  and just send back a message..
 RM>> And what should that do??
 AA> Maybe start to annoy THEM?

Nope :)

 RM>> This is much better, and funnier:

 AA> I remember seeing that several years ago.  It was fun to see it again.

This one has nothing to do with spam, but I think it is quit funny:

 AA> How long would you tolerate someone pricking you with a pin at the
 AA> back of  your neck after you've told them to stop coming near you?

Just use greylisting and/or a baysian spam filter

 RM>> The other/additional method is to set up SpamAssassin.
 RM>> It scores the mail and if the score is too high it does not accept
 RM>> it. But it is much more complicated to set up and maintain.
 AA> That one sounds very familiar.  Good to know that there are solutions
 AA> that  ISPs can implement. But whatever is being done, is not good
 AA> enough.

Change your mail provider :)

CU, Ricsi
