What I was saying is that they had already set up some type of blackhole system that I was lead to believe they were doing at the router level (not mail system level). When they had us blackhole, we couldn't get past their core routers. I know your next thougt is that they just threw us into their route filter, but my understanding is that they offered a service that you subscribed to and the updated the filter on the fly.

I don't know if this what you were observing, but the MAPS RBL can be used in this capacity. See also: http://www.mail-abuse.org/rbl/usage.html#BGP Of course, you'd want a different database for blocking script kiddies. -- David
