  ale at ale.orgSubject: [ale] SpamHi: 
  I am being bombarded by SPAM. I'm sick of it. I'm a C programmer and I 
  don't do a lot of systems work I'm attempting to use webmin to set up some 
  spam filters. I understand how to do that; however, I am struggling with which 
  values should I choose to catch the &*$$%^(**&'s?  When looking 
  at the mail headers, I usually see several domains and possible ip addresses 
  in several "Received" sections of the header. Should I try to block the first 
  one listed, the last one listed, or all of the above? Should I try to block ip 
  addresses, networks, email addresses, or domains? 
  Please excuse my ignorance. Does anyone have any pointers? --
