} Hotmail says:
} "2. We do not allow numeric characters at the beginning of an email
} address. Any Hotmail Login Name beginning with a NUMERIC character is
} a forgery."
} Does anyone have an existing regex that does this ?
Well for our config, where we have:-
SPAM_BLOCK_DB = EXICONF_DIR/spam_block_regex.cdb
EXICONF_DIR = /var/exim
sender_reject = "@@partial0-cdb;SPAM_BLOCK_DB"
sender_reject_recipients = "@@partial0-cdb;SPAM_BLOCK_DB"
The hotmail entry currently looks like:-
*.hotmail.com ^\d:maxx_*:colleen_*:gamma9:kzinspace:carnuts:\
car_crazy65:>_basic_numeric_
[that last section passes the check on to our generic rules.]
The other specific names in there are from earlier spam attempts and are
probably outdated.
