ostaa,
ou could try adding the following keywords in your keyword list: Subject:koi8 koi8 We will soon (days) be releasing a new release of SpamFilter that will allow admins to block emails based on the email's charset. ------------- Roberto Franceschetti http://www.logsat.com" rel="nofollow - LogSat Software http://www.logsat.com/sfi-spam-filter.asp" rel="nofollow - Spam Filter ISP |

Is this still planned, or should we be using keywords?

Good question? This was originally reply posted on 19 March 2009 at 7:55pm and it now October 14th, 2009. Any thoughts?

Ouch, I see we did drop the ball for the March 19 post, as that feature never made it in that month. On October 11 we did pre-release SpamFilter v4.1.2.818 which allows the keywords to be used to scan for the email's charset. You can now specify keywords like: charset="koi8-r" to block specific charsets. ------------- Roberto Franceschetti http://www.logsat.com" rel="nofollow - LogSat Software http://www.logsat.com/sfi-spam-filter.asp" rel="nofollow - Spam Filter ISP |
