FWIW I nowadays record the last IP so that I can see patterns, and at

Finally, this has paid off. After a couple of years of collecting stats,
I've identified some patterns, which I'm happy to share - but maybe not
here.
About a week ago I tentatively setup a spamd.conf blacklist based on
those IP addresses which originated most of the spam I see on the (two,
entirely separate) systems I admin. The results have been HUGELY
satisfying - these senders now get tarpitted and I've wasted so much of
their servers' time, it's lovely (sob).
Mwahaha.
