Ricochet is an automated agent for tracing and reporting internet junk
|
|
mail (a.k.a Spam). Ricochet analyses the headers of a spam to identity
|
|
the machines used for its injection, looks up the email addresses of the
|
|
machine owners and mails out a complaint to them. Ricochet uses various
|
|
network information resources like nameserver records, MX records and
|
|
Whois databases worldwide to collect and verify this information.
