Spam Idea: Outsmarting Spam

I’ve got an idea how to automate moving spam from the inbox to the delete folder: I operate a publishing company with multiple email addresses.  Every day, spam messages flood in with the same spam message going to multiple email addresses.

This means, this is a way of identifying spam which is an issue for spam software; correctly identifying a spam message.

A genuine message would not be emailed to 3+ email addresses.

Logic says: migrate the details of each message to a database, then enable rules to delete messages that match the details in the db.

  • S1: Sender name
  • S2: Sender email address
  • E1: Email subject

Process

  1. Identify spam = message arrives 3+ times
  2. Copy details (s1s2e1) to table: spam######
  3. Enable send and receive
  4. Run clean-up (after receive complete)
  5. Delete messages match (s1s2e1)

It WILL work

Then, lightning struck on this old head.

My logic is how the software SPAMfighter already works.

I suppose I am frustrated that even though SPAMfighter claims to remove 95% of spam, I still receive 100+ spam messages a day in my inbox.  Having said that, thousands are moved to the SPAMfighter and Junk E-mail folders.

What I was doing was ‘deleting” spam messages when I should be ‘blocking’ them which subsequently sends the details to SPAMfighter and future messages are dealt with.
