controlling spam via mail interface?
|
|
| Nico Golde 2005-08-04, 8:10 am |
| Hi,
there is the possibility to mark mails via the list archive
web interface as spam. Is there a possibility to do this via
a mail gateway with the message id?
regards nico

| I do not know, wheter it is possibel for Debian, but I am using
fetchmail on my FileServer where I have courier-imap to read the
mesages.
I have made a mutt-macro and a little BASH script which send the
message back to my FileServer whose rescan the message automaticly
as SPAM.
I think, there is no problem to extract the Message-Id: and send
it back to the list server. The only problem is, that it works
only for mutt(-ng).
Greetings
Michelle

I know, I use local spam filters too, but thats not what I
meant.

It shouldn't be a problem for other mail clients too to read
the msgid out from the mail header.

I wonder, what does the web interface do at all? I have reported
lots of spam (I reviewed all of July) but the spam is still there
in the mailing list archives.
:-?

If I understood it correctly it reports the mail only as
possible spam. Maybe it requires manual review?

It would be cool if we could create a spam-reporting alias similar to what
Spamcop does that would make it easy to report through e-mail (in Mutt
I have a shortcut to do just that). To prevent abuse, and to make it work in
a more semi-automatic way, maybe it could allow only GPG signed mails from
developers and work only if more than two developers reported the same
Message-ID.
The problem with the web interface is that it lacks authentication, so you
cannot "trust me" more than you can trust average joe even though I've make
every effort to report only legitimate spam (something "average Joe" might
not do). If the spam reporting tool where to be developed through a mail
interface with GPG that would make automatic fixing of archives easier.
It could also allow reporting spam to the BTS easier too.
Just my few cents.

I seem to remember that we have (had?) one, back in the days when spam
was counted in single digits per day. I have no idea if it still
exists, or what it was called.
