There is a user that is currenlty using some softare to flood a news group.

The problem is whith each post there is a different user name and email
address listed. Simply blockign by user name or email would be pointless.

How can you add a score or rule using say and IP adress or a abuse address?

To match any header, use "Header" in the scorefile entry.

Examples:

=-9999 Header "NNTP-Posting-Host: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
=-9999 Header "X-Complaints-To: abuse@xxxxxxxxxxx"

You can also use regular expressions:

=-9999 Header {^NNTP-Posting-Host:.*xxx\.xxx\.xxx\.xxx}
=-9999 Header {^X-Complaints-To:.*abuse@example\.com}

Only problem with this approach is that the bodies must be downloaded to
use the Header?
