I suppose everybody here knows what greytrapping is and why no spamd setup is really complete without at least Bob Beck's uatraps in its config. But then some of do our own local greytrapping, and I for one have been exporting the contents of my local-greytrap once per hour to a publicly accessible location for the benefit of anybody who wants to use the information.
I assume there are others out there who do their own greytrapping, and it might be a good thing for all of us if the data generated at those various locations was made available to others. The data would likely overlap quite a bit with established sources such as uatraps and nixspam, but more likely than not we would be catching a few that would otherwise slip through the cracks. So I'm considering setting up a consolidated greytrap list to supplement uatraps and others, if other greytrappers out there are willing to share their data. My list is available at [1], with a the list of trap addresses and some description at [2], with a policy statement of sorts at [3] (I imagine I would require a similar statement from any participants), and various field notes available at my blog (see the signature). Would something like this be useful? Any comments and feedback (including why this would be a monumentally stupid idea) welcome. - Peter [1] http://www.bsdly.net/~peter/bsdly.net.traplist [2] http://www.bsdly.net/~peter/traplist.shtml [3] http://www.bsdly.net/~peter/traplist_ethics.html -- Peter N.
