Inquiring minds want to know: where did you dig around? :-) The IP Block List is populated by the IP Block List Providers that you specify one line down in the Anti-Spam configuration.

Shame on me, I guess; I never realized that happened. This morning I got a call from a sysadmin for an organization that was unable to send mail to one of my users, and in troubleshooting I found them on the block list along with a bunch of other addresses that I never added. I'm digging around, though, and am coming up short on info about how, exactly, this happens. Under what circumstances does an IP get automatically added to that list? I notice that the automatically-added addresses have expiration dates/times. How long is an address blocked for that's put on the list automatically? Is that configurable?
