Not to fuel the fire.. but I'm missing something.. when i check the link above it dumps to a page that just checks to see if yourdomain.com has certain valid email boxes iaw RFC 821, 2821, 2505, yada yada yada.. and I couldn't find anywhere that shows they have been blacklisted because they allow spamming - such as a lookup via SPEWS, XBL, etc. Why don't they get 'listed' as open spammer relays? ;) ~Rick ___________________________________________________________________ Virus Scanned and Filtered by http://www.FamHost.com E-Mail System.
