How can I get on these guys spam lists? I am part of a network that hashes spam into identifiers and matches it to others on the network to identify it as spam. The more spam we get the tighter the network. I have Herbivore so I don't worry about spam anymore.
According to a site that keeps stats live for their filter for all mail proccessed 50.7% are detected spam from bulk senders. The site is http://www.herbivore.us
I have found what I believe will be Alan Ralsky and his fellow spammers undoing. I was playing around with names at random, seeing what was there. My wife suggested herbivore and we typed in the tld's for them and then tried the.us extension. We were suprised to find an anti spam site. At first I laughed at the notion. After reading the overview I downloaded the trial and I have been amazed at the amount of crap it has caught. I have received 2 spam in the last week that got through the filter. The cool part about the system is, according to the site, that the bigger the network gets the better it can filter due to its automatic spam tracking on the network of users. The site is herbivore.usfor anyone else out there that would like to take a look.
