When the rejectlog contains stuff like:
1998-03-16 04:34:06 0yERaw-0002T5-00 rejected from lakelnd1-228.southeast.net
(207.98.200.228) [207.98.200.228]: temporarily unable to verify sender address
(try again later) <YourInternetFriend@???>

It'd be really nice if there was a simple program which would find this and
automagically report spamming attempts to the owner... perhaps it would
be semi-interactive and offer you a default. e.g. in the above case, it would
offer to report the relay blocking to abuse@??? and postmaster@s~t

anybody ever tried this?

else it'd be a chance to practise my Perl hackery again (BTW, anybody try my
single-line-exim-queue printing program - unless Phil is thinking of adding
options for -bp to do it for us?).
