reasons already stated.

Anyone an expert of v6? I've been digging a bit, but am still very low on the
"know-how" scale. Of particular interest at the moment:
* IPv6 networks talking to IPv4 networks
* above, reversed
* DHCP and IPv6, and selecting ranges for internal site addresses
* NAT and IP Mobility..
* Obviously,
Good point... but I'd need more specific real-world details in order to
respond since I've not found too many instances where RBL's have blocked an
ISP's email servers. Those that I am aware of, the situation has been
resolved quickly by the ISP and generally a Spammer gets ousted.

I am also not afraid of RBL's since I AM in control of my email servers.
The only thing that scares me about RBL's is people using them without
understanding what's important. It's kinda like choosing an Email server.
Those who are clueless choose Exchange and plug it into the Internet... and
pay
Correction... Users DO care WHY they were blocked, but they aren't going to
let you know that since they are using you as a vent-sink.
Those who are clueless are also calling their IT guy (yes, even SMB's have
those, contract or on-staff)
As for blocking, that's all well and good unless you actua
