+Cleanfeed is an extremely powerful spam filter, probably the most widely
+used spam filter on Usenet currently.  It catches excessive multiposting
+and a host of other things, and is highly configurable.  It uses
+F<filter_innd.pl> exclusively and requires the MD5 Perl module.
+
+Cleanfeed was originally developed by Jeremy Nixon who maintained it
+until 1998.  Then Marco d'Itri until 2002.  Steve Crook has been
+maintaining it since 2007.

+Postfilter is an B<nnrpd> Perl filter (F<filter_nnrpd.pl>) which scans all 
+messages sent by local users in order to block abuses.  Postfilter can limit 
+the number of messages per user, IP or domain, provides a set of powerful 
+ban lists, supports RBLs and URIBLs, can handle connections that come from 
+TOR and is able to deeply modify the headers.  It's designed for large sites.
