Rather than :blacklist at the TCH level at this time, I am going to filter my incoming e-mail at the client level instead, so that I can monitor the other harmless mail that comes in with misspelled names, etc. I'll filter out what I am certain is MyDoom-related and allow the rest through. I may activate :blacklist later if the volume does not decrease soon. Thanks for all the feedback and suggestions. - Brent

Rick, First, sorry about the Panthers loss. Great game though; best SB I have seen in a while. I was rooting for the Panther's all the way! Re: your comments about :fail versus :blackhole... I have been inundated by these virus e-mails; about 100 a day for the last 4 or 5 days. I have not yet enabled :blackhole because it is often important that I am able to receive errant mail sent to unknown_names@mydomains.com. Right now, however, I'm sick of receiving all those virus e-mails and want to do something about it. Would you suggest that I turn on :blackhole for a while, until the viruses stop coming, or am I doomed to receiving those suckers forever? Are there any other better alternatives that would allow me to continue to monitor the errant, but "legitimate" e-mails which are accidently sent to the wrong address, and at the same time avoid the virus e-mails? Thanks for your suggestions. - Brent brent@twinmail.com brent@verlworkman.com
