Hello,

I receive many SPAMS everyday.
Most of them are from IP based dynamic FQDN.
Therefore detecting SPAM from FQDN is effective.
Almost all mails from IP based dynamic FQDN are SPAM.
However there are few important exceptions:
we have needs to send mails to users of our smtp host from somewhere  
using DHCP.

Plan 9 smtp server supports SMTP-AUTH so that legitimate users are  
allowed to transfer their mails to other smtp server.

We can also send mails to users of our smtp host using SMTP-AUTH.
However the information(the fact the mail is authenticated) is  
discarded in delivering mails to mbox. Therefore these mails are  
confused with SPAM.

I think it is worthwhile to put a tag something like:
X-Authenticated-User: alice
following "Received: from ..."
in case that the mail is authenticated by alice.
