spews has been dead for a while. this is why with

recent releases of openbsd, we don't include it in the example

files anymore - spews started taking a tack of basically

including every ISP on the planet, since only big companies

should be able to send mail. which, of course, is bullshit.
	I use uatraps and nixspam.
	China and korea are still relatively accurate, but

for my mind, of dubious value - I do not use them myself,

perfering to rely on *actual* spam sources rather than just

countries that are unresponsive to spam complaints. That

may have been valid 5 years ago, but IMO, now most of the

world is numb to them, not just China and Korea.
