Hi guys! I've been working on the POP3 Spam Filter Proxy for a while but so far couldn't get Sourceforge to work nicely. Until I do you'll have to stick to the project homepage for more details and to the feature list I'll give you now. Features so far: - written in java as a console application, therefore (propably) portable to all platforms with a Java VM; - works as a proxy for pop3 servers; - every pop3 server is usable as a remote server by using a username like "username@proxyserver#realserver"; - useable as a local proxy for personal use or as a network-wide proxy for companies and small service providers; - option to accept local connects only (also for personal use); - configurable listen port; - pluggable mail filter architecture; - preinstalled filter: based on multiple regular expressions on header fields, configured by an XML file; - preinstalled filter: filter for hosts blocked by an RBL in "Received:" fields, choose any RBL you like; - 3 different actions to deal with unwanted mail: ignore, rename or delete; - template based stats mail sent to client after a session with filter actions; - optional swing admin client to configure and remotely shut down the proxy; Features that I'm currently considering or that I've already started implementing are: - "TOP m n" where n!=0 doesn't work yet but ought to; - add a filter that checks for an existing MX record for the sender's domain; - add another action: add custom header field to mail which is considered spam; - categorize mails: 0=no spam ... 3=maybe spam ... 5=spam (this could be very complicated with the architecure...); - add custom headers according to result (as Spambouncer does); - set a threshold value for filter actions; - complete JavaDoc documentation; - write readme; - figure out the shitty sourceforge and put a proper page up; I hope I'll soon have a binary release ready as well as some more or less nice source code. The code I have so far is still quite buggy and unreadable. So please be patient with me.
