So do I, Peter.  I have Postfix + Procmail + SpamAssassin + Vipul's Razor set
and I *still* get SPAM from tlug.  I think you're all unfairly attacking Ralph
for bringing up this issue.

Furthermore, I think your suggestion to tune your SPAM filters is ridiculous:
it just deals with the symptoms and leaves the real problem untackled.  Don't
you think we should secure the server or do you really think we should just
all implement individual filtering schemes?
