If you would like, I can send you what I have.
I made a script I that given a message on stdin will append the
address in the From: header to a file. I also have a mutt macro that
invokes this script (and flags the message for deletion) with a single
key press. This part is just to reduce the effort required to
blacklist someone. I have exim setup to check that file against
sender addresses and return a failure notice (instead of delivering)
any address that is blacklisted. It is really a simple setup (just
several components).
When I see some spam that hits my inbox, I press F12 and it goes away
forever :-).
