I have rules like this on my servers:

  ^\w{3} [ :[:digit:]]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ proftpd\[[[:digit:]]+\]:
  [._[:alnum:]-]+ \([._[:alnum:]-]+\[[[:digit:].]{7,15}\]\) (- )USER
  [-_.[:alnum:]]+: no such user found from [._[:alnum:]-]+
  \[[[:digit:].]{7,15}\]\ to [[:digit:].]{7,15}:21$

basically, I just don't care about logins as nonexistent users,
I get so many of those that I don't even think about contacting
the netblock operators.

However, is it okay to filter messages of that sort in
ignore.d.server? I say yes, because there's also paranoid. But
I want a second opinion on this...
