Re: [Declude.JunkMail] SPAMDOMAINS - Netscape.com

[Matt]

Oops, sorry.  I'm not sure about netscape.com, but E-mail from that domain has been quite rare in the past since they don't have hardly any employees, and even if you had their primary reverse DNS entries, it's quite possible that they send out as netscape.com from third-parties just like symantec.com does (which is quite boneheaded for an AV/Anti-Spam provider).  This is what I'm using for netscape.com: @netscape.com       .aol. This might be a good example of a domain though that really needs benefit of two columns, i.e.: netscape.com         .aol. I have no idea what they are doing for their new ISP service as far as E-mail goes, but I would expect for them to channel everything through aol.com just as they have with netscape.net.  I don't see why they would seek to establish a new network exclusively for this new service. FYI, I never found a reason for the following entry: aol.com      netscape.net Omitting it hasn't caused any problems that I am aware of.  I did of course though use Bill's original list as the starting point for mine and for the most part it remains intact except that I got anal about the @ thing :) Matt Colbeck, Andrew wrote: Well, Matt, that's a great example for Netscape.net, but Jeff was asking about Netscape.com So I guess to round out the conversation, here's the two entries in spamdomains that everybody seems to have, to cover Netscape.net: aol.com netscape.net netscape.net aol.com I'm pretty sure that we have Bill Landry to thank for the seminal work on sd.txt from which everyone has benefitted (hey, credit where credit is due!)

I sometimes search my known good E-mail for outgoing servers, or Google for it by looking for header code along with the address and keeping in mind that a lot of that stuff is forged especially in newsgroups.

If they have an SPF record, that's the easiest way to research them, but you can also try the website at http://www.SenderBase.org to see what they've noticed. They've noticed one more host: dust.netscape.com The problem with checking the MX record is that it is only for recording inbound mail to Netscape.com, it doesn't necessarily say anything about outbound mail from them, which is what you're after. I suspect that your suggestion will work fine, as I think that they keep their corporate domain for netscape.com separate from the customer business as netscape.net ...

There isn't a netscape entry in my SPAMDOMAINS.TXT file. I was just wondering what I would enter to make it so. I did a NSLOOKUP on netscape.com and the MX record points to mail.nescape.everyone.net. So the entry I would enter would be: netscape.com netscape.everyone.net Is this correct? Just want to make sure if there are more later. I want to understand this so I don't keep asking.
