>I'm always so afraid of false positives.
Ken, let's see what will be happen - I was running this feature for over
week before it was released and even without the current improvement (PBL
..10/11) I've got not a single false positive.
If you expect that PBL will match on a IP-range you know and you are still
get scared - put this range in to 'noRBL'.
But for now, I want you not to do this - because we will not know, if
there is a mistake in that feature, while such IP ranges are ignored with
'noRBL'.

Thanks again for MAKING the time to answer....
I don't know that I agree that most ISP's don't show the IP's of their
clients in received lines. Comcast (one of the largest ISP's in the US)
definitely does for SMTP emai. Here's an example:
Received: from omta17.emeryville.ca.mail.comcast.net ([76.96.30.73]) by
qmta06.emeryville.ca.mail.comcast.net with comcast id
BQ011h0041afHeLA6QABZE; Sat, 23 Jul 2011 12:19:11 +0000
Received: from mypc.local ([69.10.100.200]) by
omta17.emeryville.ca.mail.comcast.net with comcast id
BQBc4300F585Fth8dQBcnA; Sat, 23 Jul 2011 12:18:37 +0000
with 69.10.100.200 (genericized) being the ip handed out to my home
computer. I know that time warner does this as well, I I'm pretty sure
that verizon does too. Now, of couse when a home user is using a web
interface for email like gmail or something, their local ip doesn't show,
but for those people who use smtp to send the message from home they do in
every case that I've seen.
I >>wish<< that I were an ASSP expert, I'm just not. You answered in
detail, more detail than I expected in fact, my questions - you're the
expert. I hadn't realized that zen.spamhaus.org gives a 127.0.0.10 or 11
reply for pbl matches. That's great, and I'm thrilled if I'm
understanding
correctly that ASSP takes that into consideration and does NOT negatively
score a message based on an earlier received line that is a pbl match. I
suggest that you make it clear in the gui that PBL only matches do not
negatively score so that unknowing users don't get alarmed.
I still get scared that other providers might not be as clear as to
rejection reasons and could cause a ton of mail to be erroneously
rejected. I'm always so afraid of false positives.
