Automatic abuse mail sending
Would it be possible to add a hook that can detect the abuse mail for that IP (with whois in the first time, and maybe some better tool afterwards) and send an automatic email to the abuse adresse with portion of the log incriminated ?
It can be useful for 2 case :
- an hoster can know someone use badly its service. And if not, some server is hacked and must be reinstalled.
- the user of a server can receive an abuse mail without knowing his box is hacked, so he can take the action to get his box clean.
I think it's a virtuous circle IF the abuse mail is treated as it should do ;)
