Sadly, until SMTP is rewritten and we're not using protocols on the

SA offers an arsenal of tools but we shouldn't take it for granted that
volunteers to do the job for us.
"we could", "one should", "SA should" are pipe dreams as long as admins
are not willing to contribute.
This is one of the reasons why projetcs like SARE died (wave @Chris

It seems to be sign of the times that ppl have a hard time with
commitment, spamfighters are getting closer to retirement age and
apparently, the "next generation" doesn't find spam fighting sexy.
So what can be done? raise your hand if you're willing to contribute, is
a starting point...
