the RBL is entirely an IP address thing. no domain names are harmed in the operation of the RBL.
Sigh. There used to be a list of spammers' domain names, such as cyberpromo.com. There were some companies (PGP) that were considering mail reader products which would do filtering on domain names. But after the new copyright law was passed, they dropped their plans for this scheme.
of course, the specific point of discussion was that you suggested that there were potential trademark/copyright issues associated with rbl operation. clearly there are not. the rest of your posting appears to be an attempt to change the subject to evade admitting that you are talking through your hat. <plonk> richard -- Richard Welty NeWorks Networking, Inc. 518-244-9675 rwelty@neworks.net http://www.neworks.net/
