Pretty sure not. The way to use that RBL is as an RBL. Don't accept
the backscatter in the first place.
If you use the lists as an RBL to reject at SMTP, you will end up
rejecting legitimate email. Here, I have the zones rsync to rbldnsd
locally and have SA rules test the last external IP.
If you do it right, you are very unlikly to lose legitimate bounces.
I wasn't referring to legitimate bounces. I was referring to
legitimate messages (non bounce). If I started using the
backscatterer.org RBL's at STMP time, guarantee I will get calls and
several email messages asking why a message was rejected.
Backscatter.org is the worst RBL on the planet. If you use it you will
get a lot of false positives.
