its complete freaking crap. They don't really check they simply email
your server with something that should bounce and if it doesn't you're
an open relay. For awhile with another client i was testing our smtp
server so i disabled bounces for a bit and within 2 days we were a open
relay. I emailed and emailed and emailed but never managed to get a hold
of a person so i eventually just turned off the bounce disable. I was
tempted to use my ediets contacts i have with aol but i decided not to.
My thinking was that if i couldn't get a hold of a human through the
channels they provide in there owe so vague email then everyone else has
that problem too. grr

Subject: Re: return of the king game...
Last week an email from another list member was blocked by someone
because of a
blacklist. Personally, for all the good they supposable do, I will never
trust
them. I've gotten warnings from a RBL for a site I was doing and the
only reason
was that the link for the site was listed in an email they got. I get
spam from
RBLs all the time testing me out. I check out pure spam addresses
against RBLs
and in many specific cases they have no clue that its spam (012.net.il,
rima-tde.net, etc.)
I appreciate the job they're trying to do but....
As an aside, besides not using RBLs for my spam catching, none of the
HoF lists
or resources are on any.
