Potential use for custom SPAM action ?

[UxBoD]

Some good ideas coming out, and I do like DAve's idea about the URL for checking.  MailWatch DB has all the details, but was thinking about storing the message ID aswell in the RBL DB.  That would make it easier to then cross reference against the MailWatch DB, both from a end-user and admin perspective. Also, When deciding which IPs should be entered into the RBL set a watermark, and work out the average score from 'n' messages and compare that. Rationale for that is the potential for a FP which could skew the figures.  At least taking a average for flatten the score out a little.

Hello,

I've a CustomFunction that checks if $message->{ishigh} is "1" and saves 
the IP of that spam message in an archive with a timestamp. Then, in a 
cronjob, I check those archives and the IP that appears X times in X 
time, is added to a blacklist.
Easy :)
