"tarbaby" has a very different connotation: that it is a TCP or SMTP
tarpit. This will make people nervous to use it.
It's not just a tarpit.
"It's not _just_ a tarpit"? Is it a tarpit _at all_? Do you understand
exactly what is meant by the term "tarpit"?
If it _is_ a tarpit, no sane admin would put it as _any_ of their MXs...
It builds the hostkarma blacklist.
I'm aware of that, but that is distinct from being a tarpit, which is what
I'm trying to clarify.
Karsten, is this OT enough to be squelched?
