Thank you Chris, I will definitely add these to my box!
I think the only one I won't add is address.com; since I do know a few folks
on there with valid email addies.

I've got a couple to add to your list; a lot of them are individual
addresses, but since I can't block yahoo.com or msn.com (for example) as a
whole I can certainly block these individuals.

I'm finding that *everything* I get from .jp - either coming through a .jp
server or an email addy ending in .jp - is pure spam. And for some reason,
the amount of spam I get has nearly quadrupled over the past two weeks - I'm
adding at least 5 new spammers every night to my block list.
And don't I just love seeing the rejection notes in my logs when they try it
again... *grin*

Thanks again!
