These days, I don't blacklist on people who are on such lists, I delay mail based on that. I use it as a guide rather than an absolute. I agree with you on this, however. There was a time when it was a reasonably useful thing not to have to deal with this kind of rubbish yourself, but it's got to the stage where they're all run by [deleted], and therefore you can't trust them not to list things without having done some kind of sensible check first. Yes, I do remember when the MAPS RSS managed to list 127.0.0.1. I think that was the real eye-opener for me on how appalling these things can be. -- Lusercop.net - LARTing Lusers everywhere since 2002
