Another anti-spam idea



Hi all,

I don't know if this has been suggested before, but how about bouncing 
messages that don't have the mailing list's address explicitly stated in 
one of the To: or CC: fields? I know that would bounce messages that are 
BCC'd to the list, but it seems like that wouldn't be a very frequent 
technique for legitimate posts to the list. Based on the spams I've seen 
over the last few weeks, this kind of filter would reject all of them.
