Spamhaus does some good work, but being used as a pawn in

If it's connected to the 'Net and listening on port 25, it's rather
obvious in the SMTP banner. As far as I know, only Barracudas use the
parenthized 32-char hex in their banners.

220 ham.globalstar.com ESMTP (025830353ddfaf0a57c33778b8725ad9)
