More Hotmail Spam


Apparently the amount of spam pouring out of leaky sieve Hotmail has increased by 2200% since people started exercising this ‘sploit. If your mailer gives you the option (or you want to add a SpamAssassin rule), the words to key on are “hotmail.com with DAV” in the “Received:” field. Or you could crapcan everything not explicitly whitelisted coming out of Hotmail, Yahoo, et. al., which is what a lot of folks do, and I doubt you’ll miss anything important.
