[HLUG] spam

Spamassassin is not shown in the long list of plugins for my Evolution
but spamassassin is mentioned in the Help and I now see that I should be
able to blacklist ISPs as well as senders. As the sender keeps changing
his name I guess I could look at the header next time and identify the
ISP and then set up a filter for that.  I can't filter out a new,
unknown subject or address and that's why the spam has kept coming. 
I don't know how the sender manages to send messages from so many
different addresses unless he wasted a lot of time setting up many
e-mail accounts. 
Thanks
Graham
