[Asrg] New proposal for spam blocking: Greylisting

2003-06-20 08:30:32

Over the past few months, I've been working on a new method of blocking spam
that I've termed "Greylisting".  From my testing it appears to be over 97%
effective.

It requires no changes to the infrastructure, is resistant to spammer
adaptation, and is very effective, yet very lightweight.

The paper outlining the method is at
http://projects.puremagic.com/greylisting/ and I have also posted an example
implementation for a Sendmail Milter written in perl.

Please look it over and try to poke holes in it, but I've worked pretty hard
to make it as bulletproof as possible.

Evan
