Chuck,

Yes, you can make a version of SPAMDOMAINS that lists your own domains figuring that your own customers will be whitelisted for AUTH or IP and therefore not hit by that filter.

IMO, even though they are forging addresses and their content may be spammy, those two things don't necessarily represent the best way to tag such guys. Gateways that tarpit or greylist like ORF and Alligate will block virtually zombie spammers with minimal effort, and if configured properly, without false positives. I only currently know of one zombie spammer that defeats greylisting, and a good number of them fail when tarpitted.

I am starting to see a lot of spam email that uses the recipient domain in
the from address.  So if the mail is going to [EMAIL PROTECTED] the
from address may be something like [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Is there any
declude test to see if the sender is valid for local domains???  I thought I
remembered something about the spammers using a wildcard to just fill in the
recipient domain for the from address - seems like there should be a method
to block this.
