Documentation on writing SA 3.0 plugin

[Lucas Albers <ad...@cs.montana.edu>]

Is their some documentation for how to write a 3.0 plugin?
Examine the source code...
I did not see any readme files in the source package about this.

See also http://www.ripe.net/ris/riswhois.html and
http://bgphints.ruud.org/articles/cymru-whois.html for two ways to find
the ASN for an IP address.

Thanks.
I was interested in writing this as a plugin for SA 3.1:

http://twiki.iwethey.org/Main/SpamByASN

This should be relativelly simple, as it is just a network test.

I haven't looked into the plugin thing too much yet, but it looks like
'perldoc Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin' will get you going in the right
direction.
