That sounds fairly similar to an idea I've been thinking about for
the last few weeks, but you've beaten me to actually coding it up
;-) I was wondering about something like >99% spam = block
outright, >80% spam = add points in SpamAssassin. That should be
quite easy when creating DNS lists from the data.
I'm seeing a lot of "waves" in the spam/clamav graphs at the
moment, obviously trying to get around greylisting. If the same IP
comes back again and again (especially to different recipients)
and we keep rejecting them, then I guess it's a good indicator
they are sending junk.
Definitely interested in seeing any implementation details. Do you
connect from Exim for each incoming mail (at SMTP time), or just
parse logs later (probably faster IMO)?
Thanks,
Matthew
