In the /spider/msg directory you will find a file called badmsg.pl.issue. Rename -this to badmsg.pl and edit the file. The original looks something like this ....

-# the list of regexes for messages that we won't store having
-# received them (bear in mind that we must receive them fully before
-# we can bin them)
-
-
-# The format of each line is as follows
-
-# type source pattern
-# P/B/F T/F/O/S regex
-
-# type: P - private, B - bulletin (msg), F - file (ak1a bull)
-# source: T - to field, F - from field, O - origin, S - subject
-# pattern: a perl regex on the field requested
-
-# Currently only type B and P msgs are affected by this code.
-#
-# The list is read from the top down, the first pattern that matches
-# causes the action to be taken.
-
-# The pattern can be undef or 0 in which case it will always be selected
-# for the action specified

-I think this is fairly self explanatory. It is simply a list of subject -headers that we do not want to pass on to either the users of the cluster or -the other cluster nodes that we are linked to. This is usually because of -rules and regulations pertaining to items for sale etc in a particular country.
- - -From version 1.48 onwards the interface to this has changed. You can now -use the commands set/badword to add words that you are not prepared -to see on the cluster, unset/badword to allow that word again and -show/badword to list the words that you have set.
- -If you have a previous /spider/data/badwords, the first time you start -the node, it will read and convert this file to the new commands. The old style -file will then be removed.
- --There are a number of commands that control whether a spot progresses -any further by regarding it as "bad" in some way.
- -A DX Spot has a number of fields which can be checked to see whether they -contain "bad" values, they are: the DX callsign itself, the Spotter and -the Originating Node.
- -There are a set of commands which allow the sysop to control whether a -spot continues:-
--
-
-set/baddx
-set/badspotter
-set/badnode
-
-These work in the same as the set/badword command, you can add -any words or callsigns or whatever to the appropriate database. For -example, to stop a spot from a particular node you do:
--
-
-set/badnode gb7djk gb7dxc
-
-a bad spotter:
--
-
-set/badspotter b0mb p1rat nocall
-
-and some bad dx:
--
-
-set/baddx video wsjt
-
-You can remove a word using the appropriate unset command -(unset/baddx, unset/badspotter, unset/badnode) or list them -using one of show/baddx, show/badspotter and -show/badnode.
