Last question,
Should the need arise, what is the removal command for spamdyke.
Thanks

With spamdyke, you probably won't need to block specific IPs. These
addresses most likely will have something else about them (missing or
unresolvable rDNS for example) that will cause them to be blocked.
You shouldn't need to tweak the spamdyke configuration much at all.
That being said, to answer your question, in the "stock"
configuration (generated by qtp-install-spamdyke), there are several
configuration files in /etc/spamdyke/. One of these is a file named
blacklist-ip, which simply contains a list of IP addresses you want
to block. There are also blacklist_keywords, blacklist_rdns,
blacklist_recipients and blacklist_senders files. You should read
through the spamdyke documentation (at http://spamdyke.org) before
adjusting any of the configuration settings.

1.Can I block spammers using IP address
2. Do I need to install sopamdyke to accomplish this
Thanks

You can use iptables if you like, but spamdyke can do this as well,
in addition to so many other things.
Do you have a reason for not using spamdyke? It's trivial to
install, using the qtp-install-spamdyke script.
I strongly recommend using spamdyke. It's really "the bomb".
