Thanks for the feedback. If people have tried before it's unlikely I'll do much better :) > It would make much more sense to me to just apply well known form spam > specific checks into your code.

One of the main attractions is the Bayes Learning stuff, which seems to be nicely implemented (and non trivial) and the URI Blacklist lookup, plus bad word lists & the general scoring system which is really cool, plus the ability to tweak the setting and add rules via plugins, etc. It seems that SA is fairly mature and has a good user base, so it would seem a nice idea to hook into this rather than reinventing these components. Any suggestions how to achieve this either via SA or otherwise (existing CPAN modules?) would be much appreciated, if anyone here is knowledgeable in this area. Yes, there will be some captcha stuff too but I see that as separate to the actual 'identifying spam content' issue. cheers for any help. mike On 5 August 2010 15:38, Henrik K <h...@hege.li> wrote: > > > You can easily make SA-like network checks, just parse URIs from messages > and check few URIBLs.
