Does anyone know of a spam filter that will work with Asterisk?

Doesn't have to be Voip-originated...... One guy out of his apartment
in Texas constantly orders phone lines, disconnects them after a few
days of continuous dialing. http://customcampaigns.net/political.html
He is not calling with a political message but instead simply
harvesting phone numbers. What purpose Mr. Maxi does this for is
irrelevant, it's still illegal.

Point is SpamAssassin analyzes certain values in an email before its
delivered to determine if its spam or not. I am looking for something
that works in the same fashion but for phonecalls be they transmitted
via the PSTN, PRI, ISDN, SIP or IAX (etc)

If the telemarketers followed the laws this would not even be a concern.

What does spam have to do with Asterisk? Or do you mean "spit" perhaps?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VoIP_spam ? Probably the same techniques
such as whilelisting, blacklisting and greylisting are going to have to
be applied. It will be much more difficult however as there is no
"digital form" of SPIT that can be analysed before delivery and reported
to clearinghouses.

Then again, isn't SPIT just telemarketing and regulated by the same
(albeit jurisdictionally "local") rules such as Do Not Call lists and so
on?
