So basically, if they sign up to use the RBL, then you won't blackhole them? But doesn't NetSol use the RBL? Why should they be threatened with Blackholing then? --Dean ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Plain Aviation, Inc dean@av8.com LAN/WAN/UNIX/NT/TCPIP http://www.av8.com ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Dean, you're perilously close to landing in _my_ procmailrc, too. _READ_. "several of AOL's mail relays were blackholed..." Nowhere does Paul say that AOL _has signed up to *use* the RBL_. He says they ended up _on_ it, found out, cleaned up their act, and got themselves back off. I begin to think you're being _wilfully perverse_ in your misunderstandings of things people state clearly. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
