Thanks for the suggestions, but it defeats the point of having a mailserver if you hide it behind the firewall
I don't want to stop anyone (or other mailservers) connecting to it. I need to receive the (genuine) mail they want to send me! But I do want to block those IPs who are trying to spam the server, and for that I need to be able to analyze the logs a bit better than I can at the moment.
(I'll be pointing it to the spamcop blacklist soon too - when I figure out how!!!)
