I also don't like the name spamd. But others suggested that spamd is more
than just for "pf". As far as I know, it can be used via inetd too. And
also another suggested tarpitd as the name.
What about tarpitd?
mail-tarpitd? mailtarpitd?
spamdeferrald?
smtp-deferall-daemon?
smtp-tarpitd?
Just trying to brainstorm for a good name ...
