Despite attempts to contact DNSRBL / Namesystems I'm not receiving any response at all - has anyone on the list any useful contacts? (www.dnsrbl.com) - please reply off list.
I know a lot of DNSBLs, and I've never heard of this one before, nor do I know anyone who uses it.
I've heard of it...can't remember why. Perhaps just that they popped up in http://www.sdsc.edu/~jeff/spam/cbc.html which I check from time to time. I haven't had the opportunity to look at their site much since it does "Evil $hit"(TM) that doesn't render in Netscape for Linux and locks up Opera for Linux. I had to use Konqueror just now to see their site.
If someone's using to block mail and you care about sending mail to that recieipient, I'd be more inclined to call the receipient and suggest he or she use some more competently run DNSBLs.
Or just ask them to whitelist you, but it is kind of annoying that dnsrbl would list your server as a spam source, without making any evidence available on their site suggesting what caused them to form that opinion. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Lewis *jlewis@lewis.org*| I route System Administrator | therefore you are Atlantic Net | _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________
