What he is saying is that if you generate an address list with expiration using a firewall rule, it is dynamic and the addresses do not show up in your weekly/nightly/hourly router backups. With these rules, none of the addresses expire are put in the backup file making the file larger.

Huh ? not sure what you are asking and why ?

The list/feature is supposed to be dynamic to begin with.
You can run a daily update.
If you want to stop the function, you can simply disable the firewall rule that 
is associated with this list
getting a copy of the ip's via backup export is not a big deal..

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] FREE Mikrotik Blacklist Service
For years I've provided a FREE blacklist service for MikroTik users. I have
recently upgraded my server environment for higher reliability and speed.
If you are interested in a dynamic IP blacklist for your routers are are not
already using my list then checkout my writeup:

http://joshaven.com/resources/tricks/mikrotik-automatically-updated-address-list/

If you are already use my list than don't worry, your service just got faster
and you don't need to do anything... unless you want to include the newly added
list from malc0de.
