It would have the limited use of IDing specific domains that get repeatedly "spamvertised" to the point where we (1) notice them and (2) the spams don't score enough through the other heuristics. Both of these are getting common enough now that I (at least) feel that some very fast mechanism is warranted to catch them. > I suspect doing this with a DB lookup may not be such a win, compared > to using a local eval test that parses a config file and creates an > in-memory hash table. Putting the list of domain names in a DB file has the important side-effect of being dynamically-updatable and probably a bit more memory-friendly than keeping thhe whole hash-table in core. If a restart were required for each domain addition the performance would truly suffer in a spamc/spamd environment.
