Abstract
Geo-data spam filters are described. In one or more implementations, origin data and language data of a message are evaluated to establish a score for the message indicating a likelihood that the message is spam. The evaluation includes comparing the origin data and the language data to ranked lists indicating message origins and languages with which a respective message recipient interacts positively and ranked lists indicating message origins and languages with which the respective recipient interacts negatively. Interactions of the respective recipient with previously sent messages may be tracked to form these lists. Based on the score established by evaluating the origin data and the language data of the message, the message is filtered for delivery.
