Jalapeño bean dip under the car door handle always works.
There's a thing: I'm currently growing two kinds of chilli: Jalapeno
(3,500–10,000 on the Scoville scale) and Apache F1 (70,000-80,000). Want
some?
Another thing I forgot to mention with regards to selecting black lists.
If possible, immediately take the IP address of any spam delivery that
makes it past your greylisting and blacklisting setup, and plug the
address into the search box at https://mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx to
see what blacklists it pops up on.
This will help you select which blacklists are actually identifying
problem IPs in a timely enough manner so that you can "cut 'em off at
the pass" with your firewall and spamd.
Totally understood, but about half of the IP addresses I'm seeing are
proxies or relays (identified in maillog as something altogether
different)...
FWIW I nowadays record the last IP so that I can see patterns, and at
the very least identify spammers which otherwise I would have missed.
