Not really difficult. You only have to query one of those "internet police
sites" that list such things, like sorbs. It is easy enough to activate in
postfix or spamassassin.

In fact, if you do a reverse dns search on a dynamic IP it is guessable
when they are dynamic; sometimes the info is obtainable from the wohis
database.
