[vlc] Re: Nazi Propaganda

[Pierre Baillet]

Hi Jens,

These mails comes from infected machines that uses their address book to
fake the From: of the mail they send. If you look at the header, you'll
notice that all these mail are not related to the .via.ecp.fr domain.

As the From: is the real from of users actually subscribed to the ml, the
ml manager lets this messages go. The only way to block these mails
would be either to detect they are 'spams' or to detect these are non
english mails. None of the solution are straightforward.

Cheers,
Pierre.

Among the maxims on Lord Naoshige's wall, there was this one: "Matters of great
concern should be treated lightly." Master Ittei commented, "Matters of small
concern should be treated seriously."
