Multi (split) image spam

[Andrew MacLachlan]

Nope, but I've seen some quite cool wobbly lines just today - didn't fool Fuzzy though - an instant 6 points for that effort plus incidental scores giving it a total of 16 or so.

Some of the spammers are doing resends though to get around greylisting - this is a worrying trend, however it also means that they can only send half as many from each bot...

Maybe time to re-tune the greylisting software so it does a second 450 before it finally accepts a sender?

Is anyone else seeing drug image spam with the .gif images  split into 4 
vertical strip files?

Nice new tactic by the spammers.... any new methods to handle this yet?

Thanks,

Steve
