MRGRIM Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 (edited) Hi Guys, something that has always tickled me since I got online all those years ago is SPAM. We all get it and we all probably use some method of preventing and removing it. I noticed a user of these forums had a very interesting link in their signature http://officeofstrategicinfluence.com/spam/ After browsing over to this site I was rather impressed, but I then quickly realised how actually duff this website may be. Surely once a spammer picks up or learns about the anti spam methods being used against them then they will simply blacklist this domain from their bot? Another though I had, couldn’t this bot perform a MX lookup on each domain to verify it exists? I don’t really know how process intensive an MX lookup for every domain it’s spamming would be? Perhaps x number of rouge domains is acceptable to a spammer? Edited July 19, 2010 by MRGRIM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
