David thank ou for the link. Gary, The all_list.dat file is a database of net-blocks (IP-ranges) that are assigned to certain countries. Declude looks at the delivery chain of messages in the mail header and can construct the country-chain by comparing the IP-Adresses in the mail-header with the data in the all_list.dat file. It's similar to the geolocation tecnology used by some websites (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geolocation_software)
As ARIN, RIPE & Co. continuosly does assign remove and move net-blocks we have to update the all_list.dat file from time to time.
