SeeYouLater script purpose is to fetch a list of IP of known spammers and to ban them by putting them in /etc/hosts.deny.

/etc/hosts.deny is usually read by xinetd of daemons using tcpwrapper.

The software is composed of:

- the feeder, that looks at SMTP daemon logs for the string ++BAN:IP++ and feeds the database accordindly
- the butcher, that looks at the database an updates /etc/hosts.deny

There are two packages instead of one because you may want to run the butcher on a system that have no access to the SMTP logfiles. But you can indeed install both packages on the same system.

Requirements:
Perl
MySQL
