Just to clarify myself, mx2.freebsd.org is listed in dnsbl.sorbs.net and spam.dnsbl.sorbs.net but NOT in smtp.dnsbl.sorbs.net

I just checked sorbs spamdb faq, they require a fine of $50 per spam mail donated to charity!? - is FreeBSD ok as charity? - to delist a server, with the exception if it happens due to blocking a whole netblock.

If you're using sendmail: cd /etc/mail edit access and add:

# FreeBSD mailers
216.136.204.119                 OK
216.136.204.125                 OK

Save and 'make maps'.

Time to block sorbs I guess...

Unless SORBS is trying to send you email, what would that accomplish?

If you use SORBS and don't like their policies, just stop using them. Or explicitly allow mail from the IP addresses you want, as above.

What I'm more curiuos about is *how* the FreeBSD mail servers go onto the list in the first place ... did someone submit them because they couldn't figure out how to unsubscribe, and got tired of receiving freebsd-* mail?
