March 1, 2004 -- E-mail Notice

Spam Filter Changes

Affected accounts: sohmc{AT}cs.umd.edu, sohmc{AT}wam.umd.edu, sohmc{AT}umd.edu

Due to the increase of spam in my inbox, I will be tightening the rules for my spam filter spamassassin. The following changes have been made:

Please refer to the spamassassin tests to find out how these changes might affect you.

Also, the CS department has added additional spam and virus messures to curb the amount of spam and viruses the department gets.

In short, make sure that do not send an executable attachment, mail from a relay, or make your entire message an image.

If your message gets caught by the spam filter, please note that it will take me additional time to reply to your e-mail. You may want to IM or call me.

These changes will be in effect until further notice.
