I've butted heads with SORBS a few times in the past (something about running Tor on a mail server...) and have come up with this: * Block outgoing IRC traffic. This sucks, but allowing it will get you listed time and time again. My blocking rules for that are below. * If you get listed, use the webpage unblock form. Then go onto the IRC server and talk to someone. Don't wait for them to do it, they might not. Preferably, keep talking to people until you get someone who can unlist you. * When you get unlisted, immediately send notes to anyone who blocked your email telling them to fix their shit. Seriously. postmaster@(each domain) gets a form letter from me. IRC blocking rules: ExitPolicy reject *:6660-6670 # IRC ExitPolicy reject *:7000-7001 # IRC ExitPolicy reject *:7026 # IRC ExitPolicy reject *:7777 # IRC ExitPolicy reject *:8000 # IRC ExitPolicy reject *:9999 # IRC I'm sure that this doesn't cover everything, and that there is collateral damage from this block, but it seems to work for me.
