introduction

yaspi is a POP3 mail scanner specifically done to combat mailbox floods caused by virus like Swen.

It connects to the POP3 server, looks at the headers of the new messages and deletes those that seem to be virus generated without ever downloading them.

yaspi most interesting feature is that it can automatically send abuse reports to the ISPs where the mails were originated. This way, most infected machines will be either disinfected or disconnected from the Internet (and so, sending infected mails!).
