We just got hammered by something called trustedopinion.com with
invitations to visit their website. Nearly 100 of these invitations
sailed right through SpamAssassin with the help of two extraordinarily
favorable rules:
-8.0 HABEAS_ACCREDITED_COI RBL: Habeas Accredited Confirmed Opt-In or
Better
[209.237.227.62 listed in sa-accredit.habeas.com]
-4.3 RCVD_IN_BSP_TRUSTED RBL: Sender is in Sender Score Certified (trusted
relay)
[Return Path SenderScore Certified (formerly]
[Bonded Sender) - <http://www.senderscorecertified.com>]
Surely such trust in them is misplaced? At a minimum, I can guarantee
they are *not* "Opt-In or Better".

... and also costing the sending company money, since they hit BSP.

So register complaints with Habeas and SenderScore and get their
accreditations/certifications pulled.

False is the idea of utility that sacrifices a thousand real
advantages for one imaginary or trifling inconvenience; that would
take fire from men because it burns, and water because one may drown
in it; that has no remedy for evils except destruction. The laws
that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They
disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit
crime. -- Cesare Beccaria, quoted by Thomas Jefferson

Thank you, Eloise. I greatly appreciate Habeas' responsiveness,

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to report and share this information. We
have initiated an investigative process on this report and during the
investigative period we have downgraded the sender's accreditation
level. The original message was launched on 4/3 with the subject line
"Hey ;)" and a subsequent follow up message was sent today 4/9 with
the subject line "Reminder – Hey ;)". An update will be provided when
this investigation comes to an end.
Please feel free to send your spam report to complaints@habeas.com, we
will be happy to investigate the report and take appropriate action.
Kind regards,
Eloise Carlton
