Possible FP @ WS
by Bitz 03 Oct '04

phonehog . com 0 in SBL. Few sightings in NANAS, possibly due to their referral program. Domain was created on: 15-Dec-99 and does offer free long distance calls to their subscribers (i don't know what is the catch). The site looks legit and should be whitelisted, I think ;-) Jeff, I'm sending you a copy of the message off-list. Regards, -b.

I don't get his one at all!!! WTH??? I'm CC'ing to SURBL because look at the MX for this domain! uniprepacademy.com dns_mx: neti-outblaze-com.mr.outblaze.com neti-outblaze-com-bk.mr.outblaze.com I know it didn't come form that domain, but the advertised part of this email points to that domain. I'm guessing this is just an email to try to harvest addresses from people who reply? ____________________________________________________________ Received: from hotmail.com (bay19-f20.bay19.hotmail.com [64.4.53.70]) by moglobal.com (8.12.5/8.12.5) with ESMTP id i91FRj7K002969 for <csanterre(a)MERCHANTSOVERSEAS.COM>; Fri, 1 Oct 2004 11:27:49 -0400 Received: from mail pickup service by hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC; Fri, 1 Oct 2004 07:50:06 -0700 Received: from 216.139.176.61 by by19fd.bay19.hotmail.msn.com with HTTP; Fri, 01 Oct 2004 14:49:01 GMT X-Originating-IP: [216.139.176.61] X-Originating-Email: [estherekii17(a)hotmail.com] X-Sender: estherekii17(a)hotmail.com Reply-To: esthereki17(a)indiatimes.com From: "Esther Eki" <estherekii17(a)hotmail.com> Bcc: Subject: Greeting to you Date: Fri, 01 Oct 2004 09:49:01 -0500 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed Message-ID: <BAY19-F20hqiTPuUMMA00032335(a)hotmail.com> X-OriginalArrivalTime: 01 Oct 2004 14:50:06.0052 (UTC) FILETIME=[F09E5240:01C4A7C5] X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.0.0 (2004-09-13) on mail X-Spam-Level: **** X-Spam-Status: No, score=4.3 required=5.0 tests=FROM_ENDS_IN_NUMS, RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET,RCVD_IN_SBL,SARE_TOCC_NONE,SARE_TOWRITE autolearn=disabled version=3.0.0 Hello, I am happy to write you this letter, to me it took a lot of time before I decided to write you, I am just 17 years old and I lost both parents in a ghastly motor accident last year and since then, I have been staying with my Aunty, but of recent she has been persuading me to go into prostitution rather than going to school to further my education. But I dissappointed her by refusing not to go into prostitution and that made her not to assist me in obtain my school's scholarship , I begged her for her assistance so I can resume school, but she refused and said that would be the punishment for me to disobey her, now I am in a situation for me to obey her but I don't want to, the only way for me to free my self from this situation, is for me to be able to pay my school fees so that I will leave her house, and I am also applying for a scholarship that would help me with my tuition, accomodation and all the expenses that I would need to pay while in school. Because by the time I my school fees, I will move away from her house and resume school and start staying in the school's dormitory and that would keep her away from me, and I won't have to be persuaded to go into such bad thing, presently I am in my final year at University Preparatory Academy, Jos, Plateau State and all fees goes directly to the school. But the problem I am having now is how do I get my school fees paid, and thats the reason I decided to write you for your assistance, someone that would take me as a sister and give me good advise and support in prayers and I am also praying to God to bless me, and thats while I decided to write you, to know if you can contact the school on my behalf and also help me beg them for the scholarship which I applied for, so I can resume school as soon as possible, God bless you and your humble family. Please if you want to contact the school, this is the address The Principal University Preparatory Academy Jos Pleateau State principal(a)uniprepacademy.com I hope to hear from you soon. Yours Esther Eki

Postfix pre-queue filter
by Yves Junqueira 01 Oct '04

01 Oct '04

Hi, I've just uploaded to sourceforge the first version of a spamvertised URIs pre-queue filter for Postfix. It's simple and effective. It will analyse the message before it enters the queue and, in case of a listed url, it will REJECT the message and the sending client will take the proper actions. http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/pf-aux/suriproxy-0.8.tar.gz?download See the readme file for instructions. I can't assure how stable it is at the momment, that's why I am asking some feedback. What do you think? -- Yves Junqueira http://www.lynx.com.br

Help classify quickinspirations.com
by Chris Santerre 01 Oct '04

01 Oct '04

quickinspirations.com Thoughts on this guy? 48 NANAS hits. Listed in dnsbl.njabl.org Didn't we already classify this? I wonder if we can get a crossref lookup of the global whitelist, so we can see what has already been whitelisted. I belive this is a spammer in sheeps clothing. But it fools people into signing up for a stupid inspiration newsletter. But the subjects of the newsletter are stuff like: Subject: Get a Credit Report Instantly! Then a inspiration quote, then a big ad. I think we may see more of this in the future. I think it is a UC candidate. Do we have enough listed in UC for testing yet?
