5 anti-spam - ID: 751784

Last Update: Comment added ( rfreytag )

Details:

A suggestion is to add an anti-spam tracker on every
message sent, with an id number for the sender IP,
which is stored in a database, so that if someone is
spamming thru your computer, people can easily track it
back to your system, and you can easily track it back
to the offending IP

In the "real world" a scheme that requires unauthenticated trust will immediately be spoofed by spammers pretending to blame someone else. As it is spammers are faking the "FROM:" email line and pointing the "finger" at someone's Mailer is just as simple and obvious. But if I missed your point do let me know.
