I installed Apache::CodeRed a few days ago. Looks like things have tapered off. Anyway, I really like the handling. The only thing I would suggest as an addition is the ability to CC abuse@<whatever.domain> so they can bug those whose mail bounces (like the many Win2k/cable modem systems that have no associated postmaster or admin address). Possibly it does get thru to someone anyway, but just to be sure . . . Anyway, thanks for the suggestion! And thanks to the Author and contributors!
