> Hey All,
>
> So, this has been a long time coming, but figured I'd make the announcement.
>
> I'm winding down the public DNSbl services of the AHBL.
>
> This means the dnsbl.ahbl.org, ircbl.ahbl.org, rhsbl.ahbl.org lists are all
> going away, as is the public lookup/removal tool.
>
> There's a few reasons why this is coming about - one of them being that I
> feel that I've accomplished what I set out to do with the AHBL.
>
> We had an 11 year run - quite good IMHO. We've been sued (and won), DDoS'd,
> Real Life(tm) stalked, had other people in this community turn their backs on
> us because we made some hard decisions they didn't agree with... List could
> go on for a while.

> I expect that over the next few days (Sat. at the latest) I'll be clearing
> out the three main zones of data, and removing their NS records shortly after.
>
> I'm planning Jan 1st, 2015 to wildcard the DNSbl zones for anyone that
> doesn't bother to maintain their mail services.
>
> The website isn't going anywhere, neither is any of our docs and things like
> the kook mail.
>
> We do have some private services that will keep running - and I'm likely
> going to be offering invitations to our private DNSbl list at some point in
> the near future.
>
> There is a good chance that I'll be reopening the RHSbl under a new name down
> the line as well.
>
>
> Anyways, hit me up on-list or off-list if you have any questions or comments.
