Well, there are a few reasons:
(1) it makes it turn-key so that neophytes can use it more easily;
(2) you can run the same config on a cluster of servers unmodified;
(3) mobile users with dynDNS can use it.
I'm not sure, actually... I never checked. Let's see:
$ whois 206.191.13.82
OrgName: Magma Communications Ltd.
[...]
NetRange: 206.191.0.0 - 206.191.63.255
CIDR: 206.191.0.0/18
Nope; I guess not.
Hmmm. I was hoping to be able to blacklist certain countries, etc.
like Romania, China, Thailand, etc. that aren't identifiable by rDNS.
I suppose a way to manually reset a blacklisting could be done.
Or do apply it per a criteria.
BTW: my SpamAssassin pukes at "use_terse_report 1". What version
does that apply to?
