Sambas folks: (sorry, if someone knows someone, please fwd this. I didn't see any 'technical' contacts on their web site and I don't want to 'spam' them. Technical contact via whois says: [EMAIL PROTECTED] lets try that.
Hey, google me. Go back to fdma.com days. I fought (hard) the usenet spam ways. Worked with chris lewis (tinc). Why have you firewalled my class c address from pbl.spamhaus.org lookups? (204.89.241.0/24). I don't do excessive lookups, if I did, you never told me. I hate spammers. I don't spam. I use SpamAssassin, (I am the official port maintainer for the freebsd SA port). I am a charter member of the ICSA labs anti-spam consortium. We are writing the specifications to certify anti-spam appliances. What gives? What did I do wrong? > From: "Daryl C. W.
