sugarplum-0.9.8.tar.gz

Sugarplum is an automated spam-poisoner which feeds large quantities of realistic and enticing but otherwise utterly useless data to wandering spam-bots such as EmailSiphon, Cherry Picker, etc. The intention is to so contaminate spammers' databases as to require culling out large portions, including any real data, and/or to require that spambots be instructed to avoid your site. Sugarplum detects so-called "stealth" spambots, and can be used to activate firewalling or more aggressive countermeasures at the administrator's option. It includes Apache mod_rewrite rules for known spambots.
