Incidentally, although it may still be the conventional wisdom in the IETF that DNSBLs don't work and aren't useful, in the outside world where 95% or more of mail is spam, they're essential tools to run a mail server. Although there are indeed lots of stupid DNSBLs, those aren't the

Under no circumstances should any kind of Blacklists or Whitelists be accepted by IETF as standards-track documents. These lists are responsible for huge numbers of illegitimate delivery failures. We should no more be standardizing such lists than to be standardizing spam. Keith
