My ip is listed in SORBS for the simple reason that it is in a dynamic block of addresses administered by my ISP. SORBS just states that I should use my ISP mail server which I already do. Since SORBS only adds 0.10 to the spamassassin total I'm not concerned. DynaBlock was adding 4.00 and if I remember correctly spamassassin had a problem where it was ignoring the fact that I was using my ISP's server. -- Gerry "The lyfe so short, the craft so long to learne" Chaucer ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
