SpamAssassin Russian P Spam

Hello,
Last few days I got A LOT (20 mails an hour) of spam coming in from LuckyDating.ru. They are using random e-mail adresses. Typically the sender is called Anna, Katya or Alena.
The subject is about 'Look at my naked pictures', 'Look at my Russian p***y' and such.
These mails are not seen as spam by SpamAssassim. How to tell the server this is actually spam? Any quick fix?
Thanks,
Dennis

Look at the full mail headers and see which IPs are sending the messages to your mail server.
You can drop the domain at your border or use Bayesian filters to train SA for a more long-term solution.
In fact I'm curious what the OP is getting from LuckyDating.ru that would cause him to not filter them out.
@ole_juul Was thinking the same thing!

Post full e-mail headers here (you don't need to protect the spammers "anonymity" anyway) and you might get some ideas on how to block.
Russian spam has been tough for me, admittedly.
Yes, that's the tough one. They're not necessary Russian, there are people from around the world who have Russian server that can do spam.
Bride.ru is still there offering mail order brides. They've been around forever. Some of them must be getting pretty old by now.
All the mails contain 'pussy' or 'luckydating'. So I decided to write a rule;
The server is configured to smash everything with a score higher than 10 in the trashcan.
You will no longer receive updates from yoiur favorite cat forum and appointments on your lucky calendar.
It took 12-15 "feeding" of that wave samples to Dspam to make it recognize and mark that spam with approx. 99.99% precision.
A better tool, compared to SA. Strictly MNSHO.
