Back in April, Tony Meyer posted that he was receiving a lot of image-based
spam.
I too am having nothing but trouble with embedded images:
- Daily adds for fake Rolex watches
- Daily stock tips
- TONS of drugs for sale.
This style of Spam contains an image at the top, followed by a bunch of
totally unrelated text that has been copied from some kind of random
composition. I have very large Spam & Ham folders, that I've successfully
trained SpamBayes with. It's only these image-based adverts that sneak by
EVERY DAY. Something really needs to be done about this type of Spam within
SpamBayes. Are any other Spam engines able to handle this stuff, by
scanning the image for text, or something?
