If you would like, I can send you what I have. I made a script I that given a message on stdin will append the address in the From: header to a file. I also have a mutt macro that invokes this script (and flags the message for deletion) with a single key press. This part is just to reduce the effort required to blacklist someone. I have exim setup to check that file against sender addresses and return a failure notice (instead of delivering) any address that is blacklisted. It is really a simple setup (just several components). When I see some spam that hits my inbox, I press F12 and it goes away forever :-). -D -- Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. Psalms 119:105
