We did start using spamcop for a while but there was way to much
collateral damage inflicted on innocent parties.  For example we missed
several offers of free hosting for the samba.org main server.

At the moment we have tridge's trusty home-grown spam stopper script
which is reasonably effective.  Martin is currently trialling bogofilter
