    If we had a SBL/XBL module for POPFILE then we could get POPFILE to check if an email is comming from a know list of Spammer and Trojan/Worm servers.

    This is said to correctly identify 98% of Spam.

    Spamhuas is free and documents how to use it.

    The program would look through all the received headers and query them with the DNS server at sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org and if it returns a 127.0.0.2-6 address you've got a spam!

    POPFILE could then mark the email as Spam.

    What do you think?

      Well this idea seems to have gone down like a lead balloon.

      No one think its worth doing?
