Hi, you dont even receive direct mail from fellow spam assassins outside the US? Well, countries.blackholes.us is a dns based service, so if you want to look up 1.2.3.4, you would query 4.3.2.1.countries.blackholes.us It returns a 3 digit iso country code encoded as the ip, and a two letter country code as a TXT record. So if the server is in china, <ou would get 127.1.5.6 (for 156) or "cn" Wolfgang Hamann
