[Assp-user] RBL Timing

2007-02-02 Thread brougham Baker
Are the RBL requests sent before the TCP ACK is sent back to the connecting
mail server?

I was thinking that this would slow spammers down due to the 10 half open
connection limit on XP. I'm assuming that most spam senders are trojan'ed
here. This would open ASSP up to causing a denial of service attack on the
RBL servers though due to the handshake not completing.

I'm sick and tired of hearing that 'health and safety' is stopping people
doing worthwhile and enjoyable things. If you're using health and safety to
stop everyday activities, get a life and let others get on with theirs.
