The article in the link below seems quite interesting and shows the
relationship between stock tips and spam. That got me thinking - if stocks
always tend to go down after the spam levels hit the peak, can't one simply
devise a formula behind that to short-sell the stock if you can pin-point
the peak?

Spam always concerns me though, I have lots of problems with bank accounts
being suspended that I didn't even know I had!

But by filtering the evil bit you are assuming that all spam is bad. I like
the spam that I get. Today alone I won two lotteries that I didn't even
enter. On top of that I'm waiting on $4,000,000 from some oil executive that
died in Nigeria to hit my bank account any day now ;-)

Because we all know that true spam messages have lots of recipients
contained in the MAILTO field. :)
I was thinking that we should simply filter based on the evil bit set forth
by RFC 3514. MQC should allow this I'm sure.
But yes, that's the only reference to spam that I've seen in the IOS
devices. The ASA will bring in a whole slew of other options if you are
working on your security track next year!

Look into the IOS Firewall Intrusion Detection System:

Many Thanks in advance
