ROFLMAO! The very same folks who listed the entire '.de' <tld> for two years 'coz *they* (the rfc-ignorami, not the Deutsche) didn't know how to make a proper 'whois' query? And - last time I looked, *still* list other entire <.tld>s? That crowd could better change their <domain>.<tld> to 'generally-ignorant.org' ..for all they know about RFC's, use of 'whois', or the ability to read and understand any of the more common Western European languages. Not even a bad joke. No one with potential correspondents in the 'wide world' leaves that spamcheck ruleset active. Nor cooperates with their misguided mis-direction. That said, it is relatively trivial to set Exim to accept 'proper' traffic for postmaster@, webmaster@, abuse@, hostmaster@, w/o also taking spam on-board. And we should do. There ARE still helpful folks out there from whom a 'heads up' benefits all hands.
