The Spamtrak system tracks sources of email spam. It maintains a database of identified spam sources. Sources are identified by host address and by (/24) net­ work address. It provides two metrics: a total count of the spam messages originating from the source, and a score that represents a 90-day rolling average. System requirements are: - not a Microsoft O.S. - GNU make - Perl 5.6 - The perl Date::Parse module The installation procedure assumes your email system uses: - spamassassin - procmail If you don't, then you are on your own as to integrating the package into your mail system. Please see the INSTALL for installation instructions. Every *.pl, *.pm and *.pod file has embedded documentation in POD format. For instance, to see the "spamtrak-mssg" man page, run: perldoc spamtrak-mssg.pl At this time, manpages are not being installed. If people ask, I'll change that. This is a preliminary release of Spamtrak, made available for testing. I welcome feedback and suggestions.
