I am trying to block spammers with iptables but I am also wanting to log
each dropped connection
my syntax is
iptables -I INPUT -s 222.251.0.0/17 <http://222.251.0.0/17> -j DROP
How could I change this syntax so that it sent me some sort of
information to the /var/log/messages or some other log
file so that I could make sure it was working?
Thanks

Maybe try adding this:
-j LOG --log-level alert --log-prefix "SPAM deny: " --log-ip-options
Use man to give further details.
