Now see, I run a spam filter (run on CentOS, by the way *smiles*) and I have 
several friends' domain emails running through it.  It has a pretty good filter 
rate, too for being all open source.

A suggestion: there should be a way to filter using *domain* AND mailhost; that 
is, if emails come from a domain, and through one mailhost, then block the 
domain. If many domains, and the same mailhost, only then block the mailhost.

I've been thinking about this since yesterday, when I got back from vacation, 
to hear from my manager that he had to screw with mailman, because we were 
getting a lot of emails from elsewhere, subscribing to one or more of our 
lists... and having the target be one of three gmail accounts - a DDoS against 
them (and we assume that they're doing it to a lot of other places).

Anyway, given the number of times I've been blocked by nixspam (which I found 
is run by IX, a German IT mag, and that they don't answer emails to *them*, 
either), I've been trying to think of a *reasonable* way to block that doesn't 
do collective punishment to the many domains of a huge hosting provider, and 
that's my best thought so far.
