One of our clients have this problem with Korean SPAMs that he has been receiving. It was very little in the beginning but now it has reach a stage whereby it is beyond tolerance. He is receiving 30-40 SPAM mails a day all in Korean language, which he do not know. Aside from this, there are porn mails from US. Worse still he is now even receiving SPAM from Singapore different sources wanting to sell him email list of email addresses in Singapore. Obviously, his email addresses are those included in the list. He wanted me to stop these mails from reaching him at his mail server as he can imagine the amount of new SPAM mails that he will get if these CDs get popular in Singapore. Checking the SPAM mails at the mail server, all says something about my client opting in to receive their "special mailings" but the only thing he opt in was to put his email addresses on his website. The 30-40 SPAM mails from Korea are the worst because out of it, every one third of it came from the same source, means to say there is only three to four sources where the SPAMs came from. How will an angry recipient of their email buy anything from them? The SPAMs are all in HTML thus when you preview it, it will hit back to the spammers' website to collect colour pictures of seemingly happy clients of their mortgage loan plan, pornography, creams and potions, what not. One even advise you if you have cancer and how smoking "grass" purchased from them will relieve your suffering. I have often advise clients not to view their emails in HTML but it seems to them like losing a great deal of functionality in their mail clients, most will ignore. "What will happen to my incredimail".Fortunately, controlling SPAMs on this client's mail server is easy as there are built-in options for SPAM control. It would not have been so easy on customers that use legacy mail server that were implemented before the Internet turns bad. We were also able to block SPAMs based on connecting IPs using a rDNS method resolving it against bl.spamcop.net for blacklisted IP addresses that are known source of SPAMs. I found Spamcop's list to be the most accurate as compared to a number of similar alternatives. 90% of the SPAMs are being blocked this way, the stray ones that got through are mainly from Singapore's ignorant spammers who probably didn't realize that spamming is bad and connects to our mail server without doing any cloaking through open proxies.
