Re: [cobalt-users] Getting Mail Bombed!



On Sun, 22 Jul 2001 16:24:56 -0700, SteelHead mumbled something like:
>>Just think of the possibilities

I'm trying to.
Would turning off email services for an hour or so do it?
Or taking www.astrology-online.com out of the email settings, so that 
it doesn't receive mail? That way the messages would bounce - but 
hell, you'd have to leave it off for 4 days before the mailing server 
would give up attempting. Ne'er mind.

Arrgh. Hope we can get this figured out, because if it's bombing him, 
it's gonna be spreading quickly and we'll all have to deal with it 
shortly.

Is there something "under the hood" - like procmail - that we could 
use to filter and deny based on the subject line? (i know nothing 
about procmail but have this idea that it's the end-all be-all of 
what you want to do with email...)

Thanks for your quotes!
I'm now trying to find a way to randomize them automagically so I can 
use them all...
