I want to delay some of these suspicios calls instead of rejecting them completly as rejecting a call is really hard.
Further I expect automatically initiated calls to have a timeout. If the "spitting" party won't get an answer fast enough it might walk on and try another IP.
The idea is indeed adapted from the "e-mail world".
This is called "gray-lists" in SMTP world and it works really well (I've worker with it some years ago). :)
