You can tell an outblaze IP address since they have correct DNS entries for them -- be sure to match the forward with the reverse to avoid forgeries of DNS. my bet is that you will find very few, if any, of those spam messages originated at outlazed.com. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Vivek Khera, Ph.D.Khera Communications, Inc.

If you are blacklisting email just for yourself, then I don't see a real problem with it...sitewide it could be a problem though. -matt --- This SF.Net email sponsored by: ApacheCon 2003, 16-19 November in Las Vegas.
