153522 - [RFE] Add support for CloudMark's SpamNet service

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 493309

(MailNews Core :: Filters, enhancement)

Description

[George Mitchell]

I would like to see MozMail support for P2P SpamNet.  This is a really neat spam
filtering system based on an intellegent networking strategy.  When one user
identifies and blocks a peice of spam, it is automatically blocked to all other
users and has built in processes to counteract abuse.  It appears to be a very
impressive, unique, and well thought out way to get a jump on spam.  It operates
on a Napster model and one of the developers is in fact a Napster partner.  The
other is a free software spam fighter who is knowlegable about the culture of
free software.  They are currently offering a free product for Outlook (Outlook
Express version on the way) and plan on adding a pay for premium upgrade.
