[mailop] contact at google
Are there any Google folks here? We have a few rbldnsd mirrors, hosting a custom DNSBL for Enemieslist which is not your standard reverse-octet IP-based lookup (instead, you pre-pend a PTR record or HELO to the zones before you query, and get a reply that lets you know how we've classified that naming convention). An A query gets you the class and TXT gets you the "tech" (eg, "dsl", "dialup" "cable", etc.) And yet, for years, Google has been doing reverse-octet lookups against it. I'd rather they don't, but don't know who at Google is doing it. It's dumb, because they will never receive a useful response, and it's just adding to the load on our mirrors. And we actually have people who want to use it for the proper purpose. eg: 1586629389 172.253.12.1 198.211.246.23.g.enemieslist.com A IN: NOERROR/0/50 So, if anyone at Google can figure out who controls whatever experiment is epically failing and has been for a long time, I'd appreciate a hand in making it stop.

[mailop] Yahoo/AOL slower than normal delivery
Good morning email friends, I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe. We’ve noticed over the last 36 hours or so slower than normal delivery to Yahoo and AOL. There are no deferment errors (or any notable errors) and no unusual bounces, or complaints just much slower dissipation of the Yahoo and AOL queues where they normally flow pretty smoothly (especially @aol mail). Just wondering if others are seeing something similar. Not sure if the sheer volume of email from everyone being stuck at home is contributing to it either just wondering what others are seeing. I know that Verizon made their announcement about VTO a few days back so not sure if that has anything to do with it. Thanks and be well everyone, Michael Michael E.
