    摘要: There is provided a method, in a data processing system comprising a processor and a memory, for maintaining a database for identifying communicators as wanted or unwanted based on messages from such communicators. The method comprises recording, by the data processing system, communications from a plurality of communicators; generating, by the data processing system, fingerprints of message content from the recordings of the communications; determining, by the data processing system, whether given ones of the fingerprints are associated with one or more unwanted communicators; and storing, by the data processing system, given ones of the fingerprints determined to be associated with one or more unwanted communicators in one or more fingerprint databases, the one or more fingerprint databases being useable by the data processing system to determine an identity of an unknown communicator as being likely unwanted based on a match with fingerprints stored in the one or more fingerprint databases.
