There is an old p0f plugin on http://whatever.truls.org/spamassassin.text.shtml. p0f didn't seem maintained since 2006, but there is a new rewritten version on http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/p0f3/ (with a different API).

I have written a plugin to use this new version of p0f ( https://kvm.laussat.info/2014/07/04/p0f-v3-spamassassin-plugin-for-p0f-passive-os-detection/ ) and found in my own statistics that almost all mails comming from Windows are spam (probably botnet infected PCs). I don't want to judge an email sender on the OS he's using, but I think it's worth adding a few spam score points for Windows.

Do you think passive OS detection is still usefull today?
