Problems with sorbs and this list Fwd: Re: What blacklists are you using at your MTA?

2011-04-03 Thread darxus
Figured I'd forward this along, since he can't post to the list due
apparently to this list's use of sorbs.  The IP address I got it from was
67.210.225.171.  

Interestingly, sorbs' website says it's not actively listed, but their DNS
zone says otherwise.

And their website conveys a general state of brokenness.  And requires
too damn much personal information to be able to do anything.

(I did end up disabling sorbs and enabling psbl at my MTA.)

And I don't know anything about this guy or this IP other than what was
just emailed to me here.  Other than it has a DNSWL rank of low, which
could easily mean we know nothing bad about it, but just haven't had
enough info to increase its rank.  And it has no DNSWL abuse reports.

 I'm curious what blacklists other people are currently using at their MTA,

 For a while I've been using zen.spamhaus.org and dnsbl.sorbs.net.  Based on
 recent stats ( http://ruleqa.spamassassin.org/?daterev=20110319 )
 I think I'm dropping sorbs and adding psbl.surriel.com.


At the MTA? None at the moment, and I have no idea if this will reach you since 
SORBS still has my entire netblock incorrectly listed as dynamic and they 
absolutely refuse to communicate about it - or address the issue. 

The irony. I cannot write to the Spamassassin list because Apache.org is using 
SORBS - which is broken and is incorrectly flagging clean IPs still. Thus 
limiting my ability to communicate with peers and help address the spam problem 
I have going on.. one that SORBS sure hasn't helped. The IPs that are spamming 
me? Listed clean in SORBS.

:/
