http://spamblock.outblaze.com/, which is apparently in use by whatever mail server Ben S. is behind, is referring to http://www.us.sorbs.net/ in order to list IP addresses to block e-mail from.
Sorbs (http://www.us.sorbs.net/) states: Dynamic IP users, please note, SORBS is not identifying you as a spammer. SORBS is identifying you as a Dynamic IP address user, nothing more nothing less. <rant level="HIGHLY FSCKING ANNOYED"> Well, that's just peachy, fscking keen! So, though I'm *NOT* a spammer, am not even *SUSPECTED* of being a spammer, and am not necessarilly even thought to have been cracked to provide a haven for a spammer, I'm being discriminated against because my IP address falls into some range marked as "dynamic" and therefore, could, someday, possibly be used by a spammer! Why is SORBS a good thing? Oh, right, because though I've had the same IP address for over a year, I *might* not have it tomorrow, and preventing the majority of well-intentioned folks from legitimately sending mail from one MX to another will drastically cut down on the amount of spam being sent, since this reduces the number of IP addresses a malicious spammer could use. Boy, am I glad there are smart people out there looking out for me! </rant> -- Seeya, Paul _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
