Oh, it's file name agnostic...Ah of course, a great solution,
thanks. What's the name of that freeware utility that will let me do
mass file renames? I'd hate to have to ftp all the logs to a unix
server and back just to run a .csh script for renaming.

Thanks, I had just read that a few days earlier. It's
possible I'll have similar luck...

...but I hope my experience may be different. A few of the spammers
to be called to task are corporations, a few are even multinationals.
If the others do go to ground and hide, well we could all use less
beeper/satellite, search engine placement, product announcement and
mortgage spams.

Thanks. That'll be a good backup. Would someone have a list
of what SMTP banner SIMS's SMTP module recognizes. I presume it
understands many (all) of the reply codes, but say ESMTP seems to be
an announcement given as a string in the banner, not a reply code.
Does SIMS pay attention and change its behavior when it encounters an
ESMTP notice or any other? What about a full featured program like
CommuniGate Pro; does it have additional behaviors? Any chance it
recognizes NO UCE warnings and acts accordingly based on what type of
message it wants to send?

Thanks, I've been using that. One of the limitations with
rokso is that it seems to have a stated policy of aging off entries
older than 6 months. It'd be handy if it had older information as
well, to correlate and track long term behavior or name migrations.
Thanks all for the input.
