It seems my FreeBSD box is getting more that its share of spam mail. If one wants to totally re-id the machine and move it to another IP address, how should that be done so that a cold boot will bring it up on the new address? I would like to put it on my spare IP address, where it should not get any incoming hits. What files would need to be changed to accomplish this? Also, are there easy ways to block certain IP address regions or send incoming mail from those addresses into the bit bucket? There seem to be several addresses from whence the spam emanates.
