Well 3 people have ignored the last 2 sentences... so please tell me what is unclear in them? The only correct response was in 260573 when someone
The robot response, like much of the SORBS web site is rather longwinded, and I suspect many people, by the time they process Not all the IP space you requested can be delisted at this time. Please review carefully our FAQ, located at the following URI are so fuming mad that they either don't read all the way down to the final paragraph or aren't thinking clearly by the time they get there. I know from personal experience, that my reaction was to get to this point, read/re-read the above mentioned FAQ, make changes to the in-addr.arpa, and resubmit the request. This was clearly the wrong way to proceed, but even if you read as far as: I'm now marking this request as 'answered' as I think there's nothing more for me to do. If you feel otherwise, please reply to this message to re-open your ticket. In particular, if you change your rDNS information. This really doesn't make it clear that a reply to this response will reopen the ticket in a human processed queue...so "what's the difference between massaging my rDNS and resubmitting vs massaging my rDNS and replying?" The assumption might well be "no difference" so we keep tweaking the rDNS and banging our heads against R2D2. Now, if that final paragraph was replaced with I'm now marking this request as 'answered' as I think there's nothing more for me to do. If you feel otherwise, please reply to this message. Your reply will re-open this ticket in a queue handled by our human support staff. If you make changes to your rDNS and submit a new request, that request will open a new ticket which will be handled by this robot. Since SORBS caches all rDNS for [some TTL] which may be longer than your TTL, we may not even recognize that your rDNS has changed. some of the SORBS DUL hate mail might be avoided. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Lewis | I route Senior Network Engineer | therefore you are Atlantic Net | _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________
