I was looking at IP::Country and trying to figure out how it works
and how it's packaged...

Noticed that the code and data are both part of the same tarball or
RPM...  That's unfortunate.  I suspect the data changes more often
than the code.  In fact, it would be nice if the data were cached on
a mirror and the client checked periodically for a copy of the two
data files and pulled them down when necessary to update them.

I emailed such a suggestion to Nigel, but didn't hear back.

Anyone have better insight as to why this wouldn't be viable, or
have his ear?

I was thinking that since IP::Country is already present, and since
many sites running SA also install MimeDefang, then there might
be a way to leverage IP::Country...  For instance, having filter_helo()
balk at email from countries that aren't well-behaved...

Thanks,

-Philip
