List-Post: NO

[LuKreme <kr...@kreme.com>]

I've been seeing a bit (not a lot, but a bit) of Spam coming in with  
mailing list headers that looks like these:

List-Help: <http://www.pakwater.com/m1/public/help.php>
List-Owner: <ma...@pakwater.com> (Water Solutions)
List-Unsubscribe: <http://www.pakwater.com/m1/public/unsubscribe.php?addr=kremels@kreme.com 
 >
List-Archive: <http://www.pakwater.com/m1/public/archive.php>
List-Post: NO

The consistent part is the List-Post header.

because of the way I sort my list messages, these all end up in a  
folder named "NO" which it is then very easy to rclick and delete, but  
I'm wondering if it would be worth making a rule

header NO_LISTPOST List-post = /No/i
Score NO_LISTPOST 3.0

would that be the right rule syntax?

I guess "List-Post: NO" is technically allowed.

Then you would want /^No$/i rather than /No/i

LuKreme,

you can override the default value of 0

yet, parse the docs carefully,
http://spamassassin.apache.org/full/3.2.x/doc/Mail_SpamAssassin_Conf.html

there is a security warning and other excellent information

Yep, I know it's valid, although on VALID lists I've only seen it as

List-Post: NO (explanatory text here)

I forget, can I put rulesets in my user_prefs file?

I hadn't seen this in the wild before, but it looks like "NO" is valid per 
RFC 2369 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2369.txt):

] 3.4. List-Post
]
]    The List-Post field describes the method for posting to the list.
]    This is typically the address of the list, but MAY be a moderator, or
]    potentially some other form of submission. For the special case of a
]    list that does not allow posting (e.g., an announcements list), the
]    List-Post field may contain the special value "NO".

So, it's possible (but I'd expect unlikely) that you'd catch some non-spam 
mail, too.
