I find it rejects *loads* of spam.
Yep. Rejecting all-nonexistant addresses at the RCPT stage is probably
the most effective single measure for reducing unwanted email traffic
(But I consider that "best practice" anyway, and not specifically as an
anti-spam measure).

Yep, there are only plugins from Hanno and me in the contrib directory,
which I find sad.
I offer to be the "human proxy" to the contrib directory. If you want to
contribute any plugins, just send them to me and I will check them in.
I'm a bit swamped in real work right now, and that situation probably
won't get any better in the next few months, but I should be able to
respond within a week or so.
