	The FreeBSD lists are regularly targetted by spammers.  once,
hit we prevent that person/domain from ever spamming us again.
currently we filter nearly 2500 domains and ip address ranges locally,
 we also use MAPS and DUL.  once email has been accepted by the
server, it then must pass additional tests before it is resent to the
lists.

	should you have a problem or see recurrent spamming, please
contact me at either jmb@freebsd.org or postmaster@freebsd.org.
