My mailserver had to change IP numbers on Monday evening here (due to a spammer on the same C-block of numbers), and it took about 36hours for those changes to spread in the DNS system on the net.
During this period, it seems that I have been unsubscribed from all Apache mailing lists. Isn't this "unsubscription period" a bit short?? Many ISPs are cut off from the rest of the Internet for periods longer than that (recently happened to TMnet users here in Malaysia).
Anyone knows?

ezmlm does send probes to check for defunct mailboxes, and IIRC, there are some IP-address-based measures as well - but you really should ask these question on [EMAIL PROTECTED]
