I forgot to mention: It doesn't check for abuse@, only postmaster@ and the email address used in the error message is hard coded.

Maybe it helps, I have attached the source which we use for about a year. I cannot create a standard patch because my last workspace is based on the now non-existent cvs repository.

The code must be inserted before these lines into the SMTPHandler.java file:
           if (authRequired) {
               // Make sure the mail is being sent locally if not
               // authenticated else reject.

Do to the incredibly high volume generated by Microsoft Windows spambots, I
feel that we need to allow somewhat more aggressive measures in the near
term, as in *NOW*.

I propose an interm measure to add support for a DNSRBL in the SMTP handler,
which will set a flag such that RCPT TO will fail except for postmaster
(RFC2821) and abuse (RFC2142). Once a single message to has been accepted
for that connection, we might even terminate the connection.

This would not be a permanent measure, and would be replaced when we add
more flexible fast-fail, but it would provide relief today from the
spambots.

Thoughts?
