info about spam messages

[Tayfun ASKER]

hi david,

i have gone through the bogofilter.cf. unfortunately, bogofilter does 
not produce the necessary information.

to reject a spam message at MTA level, i need to know its From: address 
or source ip address. it would be very usefull if bogofilter also logged 
these values of the spam tagged messages. since bogofilter can catch 
most of the spam traffic, we can build our own black list using the logs 
of bogofilter.

thank you.

Tayfun
