Jon, We used to have filters set up to block out individuals who sent excessive amounts of mail which threatened to fill up the hard drives on our mail server. However, since the termination of our larger bulk emailers, we have less anti-spam coming in and fewer complaints overall concerning our remaining bulk emailers. (Plus, we do still get complaints about some ex-customers who use dialup accounts through other providers and other bulk emailers not on the AGIS backbone.) We have removed all filters except for one or two die-hard "forward all spam to AGIS with 10 copies to each employee and internal mailing list" sites.

I don't know if they still do, but AGIS used to just setup sendmail.cf filters to block mail from sites or individuals complaining about spam houses hooked up to AGIS.
