The documentation isn't all that complicated... please could people RTFM
because so many people on the list are saying things about DSBL that just
are not accurate or are asking questions that are answered on the 1 page
that gives all the information.

-Josh

In order to avoid false positives DSBL email needs to be formatted in a
special way, indicating the reason the mail is listed (so the admin can fix
the problem) and the email address the sender uses:
DSBL LISTME: <transport>
<details>
DSBL END

<transport> should be 'smtp', 'formmail', 'socks', etc. (without the
quotes).
<details> should be the details for the transport, i.e. the SMTP envelope
for smtp, or the URL for formmail.

In order to prevent malicious users from getting email list servers onto
DSBL these headers have to occur on the beginning of the line and need to
start within the first 6 lines of the message.
