Beware: there is also massive collateral damage in the other lists rolled into the top-level zone. Despite the name, the 'relays' zone is far more than just relays and Joe has recently added the 'Openlists' list to it, causing *huge* collateral damage. If you use that zone, it is ESSENTIAL that you use a current SIMS which can differentiate between return values and choose your blocking that way. Joe could well add other new lists into the zone without notice and if you have 127.* in your blacklist you would automatically use those. -- Bill Cole [EMAIL PROTECTED] ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
