No more junk email! Has Telkom done something?

[ldmelsa]

I use to get loads of junk email from many different companies.
I don't get any junk mail anymore.
Has Telkom done something, cause this is great!

We implemented a new SPAM filtering service a month back or so. Glad it is working for you

Spammers were capped.

You can't win... You do something good but some people are just always out to try and bring you down.

This problem has nothing to do with Telkom Internet. He is connected to SAIX's network and not even connecting to any Telkom Internet servers. He is using his own mail server connected in the States. If he relayed through SMTP.SIAX.NET then he would have no issues.

The force is strong with bonobo_slr but he has crossed over to the DARK-SIDE.

Well you have my sympathies mate. Not so much for the marriage, more for the job. Actually hopefully we can "recruit" enough guys on the inside to start making a positive change from within.

Good luck and may the force be with you.

i still get spam, but yes MUCH less. also thanks for getting rid of spamassasin, i'm sure you aggree it was silly to forward a report everytime. overseas that might work, but here with our bandwidth issues, oh well you know...

 

[bonobo_slr]

It is still being tweaked ... What we have noticed is that some people are saying that they still receive some spam, but not as much - but when we look at it, it looks like a legitimate mail that maybe the user has not realised that they may have signed up for it. \

Yes, I know about bandwidth issues
