literally take days.
Yes, days if you have never updated the system at all or if you count

If you're responsible for any of the IPs on the list, better
permanently remove them from your DHCP pools, IP assignments,
dial-up pools, or anything else that assigns IP addresses,
because these will be filtered and forgotten for the next

But in the telco world, how often do you have people's home phones

Who cares? It's not like one of you got ripped off by 419. Load up
SpamAssassin and forget about it. Kinda sad how a thread that
started about finding networkers in Africa turns into derogatory

Shut up and move along.
