What makes you think that spammers won't discover you're blackholing their spam as soon as you start to make some impact on their business? They will just skip your proxypots and move to real open proxies. I think you'll make bigger impact if you implement proxy checking software <http://dsbl.org/programs> in Python, so it can run on windows too. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
