Subject: RE: Turning Razor into a censorship tool

I was just saying that if they are using SA and Razor and all that jazz
to filter spam, and still had 1500 message of which 90% was spam, they
might as well give up on that address and get a new and turn it into a
honeypot.

Hold on there -- that's exactly one source of all this noise.

If a honeypot account reports all mail to Razor (or another blacklisting
service), and the admin does not bother reading it and unsubscribing the
legit mails, it's useless. It'll do nothing but add noise.
