Re: yEnc-encoded articles in newsgroups

Thus spake Retro Guy <retroguy@novabbs.org>
 

Same here. After looking deeper, these seem mostly in groups that my
servers do not carry, and if they are carried, the articles are filtered by
cleanfeed (before spamassassin in my setup).

That is also the case here. I just added a check for binary articles to
filter_first (before all tests) to add the articles to the NoCem queue
and then continue with the normal cleanfeed processing. I have, however,
added a filter to eliminate the most obvious bogus group names like "a.b.something".

Seeing that Ray seems to carry these groups, and looks like he's doing a
great job identifying the articles, I'm going to delay diving into this
issue. Maybe take some time to work with Perl without tearing my hair out
first :)
