For the group owner regarding the yohoo marketing spam email.

April 4, 2009

I communicated with someone who owns several

groups and asked him if he had the marketing response email

problem.

This is his response, and hopefully this might help to solve it. I am

still getting them.

Hanneke

Okay, then the next thing is to determine whether it is legitimately

coming from -- or the more probable scenario, wherein a group

r who's on Individual Mail, is the culprit (whether deliberate,

or otherwise). I've had many of those type of attempts on my own

group over the years (but since it's fully moderated, I can deal with it

and the group flow is never disrupted).

They often involve redirection of posts to a

(corporate) email address which generates an auto-response (and in fact,

often that is the way the culprit actually manages to that

third-party address to the group in the first place.. because

asks for a confirmation of the subscription request, and the

auto-response will of course satisfy that request).

The group owner should immediately search the

membership list for

mailserver (or

any address with the overture.com domain), and if found, then Ban the

thing asap.

If that fails, then feel free to forward one of them

to me *as an attachment*, and I'll figure out the actual source.

Thanks for the info--I checked my groups and it doesn't appear in either of them. I think the source would be Health_and_healing as it showed up after posts to and from there. This info should be brought to the attention of the owner and or moderators of Health_and_healing. I am Cc'ing it to the group owner.

Cheers

Bea

PS--Hanneke--did you block the search marketing address mailserver ? If not you should do so. That should end getting mail from them.--- On Fri, 4/3/09, Hanneke <blosshan wrote:

Bea, I can't figure out how to block it from coming through. Apart from

that, even if I put a filter in, I might not see it coming in but

it doesn't stop it from being sent by who ever is doing it. . It

should not be send in the first place. Hope that the health and

healing owners are going to look through the member list if the

problem originates there.

I haven't used my email box for the last 5 years. The spam in there

is absolutely shocking. The only mail coming in IS spam mail. That

was from before they started providing spam blockers etc. Around

800 emails per month. If and when I think of it I empty it. Last clean up

was 1020 spam emails. Even the automatic delete after so many days

(30?) doesn't seem to be effective on the account.

I receive all my mail to my main email address. This spam email is

the only one is receive but only as a direct result of posting to the

H & H group.

No--I meant there should be a way for you to block it in the email server you use. There should be a 'spam' section that gives you the option to block emails--no matter where they come from.
