1 Hello email admin's and fellow gentoonians,
2
3 I haven't seen a response yet to the suggestions on blocking certain types of malformed virii/spam email at the MTA itself yet. So I'd like to ask again if we can please turn on some of the DNS checking features of the MTA in order to block some of the cruft we receive on these lists. At the very least, can we please block some of the worst offenders? I'm forwarding a spam header containing the ip of what is consistently the worst trafficer of spam and virii to smtp.gentoo.org.

5 newton.random-chaos.org.uk sends us a ridiculous amount of spam and virii. In addition, as far as I can tell, there is nothing in the entire netblock of it's ip that does anything but spam.

7 Looking forward to a response.
