be careful with spam comming from gib providers (yahoo, hotmail, gmail,
etc ..)

we do something similar, listing the ip addresses only if they are from
dialup zones by logging special lines to the rejectlog (as it's faster
to process than the mainlog). Then a script adds those ip's to a cdb
database which is used by exim to reject on connect.
