I think penalizing because of connection idling (or timeout) is possible (V1 is doing it), but not such a good idea. There are too many other possible (good in terms of the PB) reasons that could result in a idle connection (local workload, firewall, ISP, router, remote workload, too havy line traffic ....) but only one bad reason (remote spamming software). So it could happen, that assp will penalize good IP's in to 'extrem black' within some minutes, if there appears any external problem or a problem with your local components or lines over some minutes.

Since this behaviour is quite frequently related to spambots and/or to spamming servers, it may be a good idea using this "feature" to recognize such senders and penalize them; what I'm wondering is if the penaltybox also takes in account "idling" along with the other message scoring points ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Assp-test mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/assp-test DISCLAIMER: ******************************************************* This email and any files transmitted with it may be confidential, legally privileged and protected in law and are intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed.
