Great idea Dave thanks. Question. If a user emails a recipient in what scenario would we not want to whitelist the recipients address ?

Every time someone sends an outbound SMTP email to someone, the add-on would add an entry to a filter giving the recipient's "to" address a weight of minus one. Therefore, giving the recipient a credit. Any time the recipient sends an email to my server, minus one gets subtracted from the total score of their email. If a user on my server sends a second email to the same recipient, another minus one credit is added to the filter. Now that recipient has a credit of minus two. The add-on would be configurable to limit the maximum credit a single address could reach. It would also have an exclusion ability where you could enter a list of email addresses that would never receive any credit. The idea being that the more frequently you email someone, the less likely that email from them would be spam. I know some will argue that "from" addresses can be forged and that perhaps its not a good idea to give credit based on a "from" address. But its not very often at all I ever receive a spam that came from a friend's forged "from" address. I think something along the lines of this type of system could be useful. --- [This E-mail was scanned by Declude] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
