Hi list,

I wonder why so many spam_IP list should be kept, rather than probably 
less legit_IP.

If each postmaster could share its legitimate lists, we might have 
reduced database, attacks to servers who "don't exclude" would not 
occur, and to apply hard rules would be easier.

This doesn't mean to desert blacklist, but rather to start with a 
alternatives lists.

Moreover, I'm thinking about IPV6 coming. It will allow to introduce 
more controls, but, on the other hand, the IP to be taken into 
consideration will not be handled any longer (I'm thinking about the 
traffic produced to keep huge databases). On the contrary, legitimates 
will be able to increase, but at a pace similar to demographic increase.

On more remark: if 'legitimates' know they belong to the "big white 
list", will do their best not to be excluded, and the postmaster will 
not be forced to became a sort of policeman.

Thanks for any answer.

Paolo
