How are you catching these spam

Found it.
When I pasted the code into the cf, vi commented every line since I
started off with a comment. I missed one of the lines when I uncommented
it.


Thanks,
Carl

Is there a spamassassin plugin I need to enable for this to work? I
placed this in a file in /etc/mail/spamassassin and when I run
spamassassin -D --lint I see that it is loading the file but
'spamassassin -t < spammy_email_message' does not return a spam report
with MIME_PNG_IMAGE_ONLY.

I updated the score line to be "score MIME_PNG_IMAGE_ONLY	4.01"
but that did not get any hits either.

Thanks again!!!
Carl

I've had some success with a borrowed rule, modified to check for PNG
images only (as they all seem to be in this format at the moment):

header          __CTYPE_MULTIPART_MXD           Content-Type =~  
/multipart\/mixed/i
mimeheader      __ANY_TEXT_ATTACH               Content-Type =~  
/text\/\w+/i
mimeheader      __MIME_PNG_ATTACH               Content-Type =~  
/image\/png/i
meta            MIME_PNG_IMAGE_ONLY          (__CTYPE_MULTIPART_MXD &&  
__MIME_PNG_ATTACH && !__ANY_TEXT_ATTACH)
score           MIME_PNG_MAGE_ONLY          4.01
describe        MIME_PNG_IMAGE_ONLY          PNG format image body part

and no text body parts

HTH,
