The answer to spam here in Norway is incredibly simple. It seems that
all spam originates in the US or South Korea. The following filter can
thus be applied:

1. Create a white-list of all valid contacts in the US.
(There is no need to create a white list for Korea, as it will be empty
anyway.)

2. Do a reverse nslookup of the sender on zz.countries.nerd.dk. If the
return value is 127.0.3.72 or 127.0.1.154, and the sender is not in the
whitelist, flag the mail as spam.

3. Accept all other mail.

Do you think spambayes can beat this filter?
