Description:

An antispam module can block registration from a known-to-be-bad IP.

However, in most cases, we can only identify the IPs used by spambots after the spam has started, by which time it is often too late to block registration.

In such cases, when the sender is local, it would be useful to be able to block a message, etc. based on the current IPs of the sender.
