Just a heads-up for everyone - just found a customer using a nasty little tool called spamstalker. Not only does it forge headers when the user bounces messages, it also attempts a sendmail HELO buffer overflow exploit. It's distributed out of the U.S. Needless to say, we'll be contacting the author...

Speaking of anti spam tools... Has anyone communicated with the mailwasher people? The google dir for windows based antispam tools can be found here: http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Software/Internet/Clients/Mail/Win... It lists Mailwasher right up top. There's been a recent Netguide anti spam thing that mentions it. (pointed out by Darrin cooke in this list back in may) So I'd guess that the number of users will go up.
