In case it makes you feel better: my *own* address was on the 510sg list for awhile last month. But I still use the list ;-). Nothing to stop you from using some less-aggressive list though; see http://relays.osirusoft.com/ for links to a dozen or more possibilities. In practice, any DNSBL list can cause denial-of-service problems. (The original and still most conservatively run one, MAPS RBL, had a memorable episode where someone put 127.0.0.1 into the blacklist for a few hours...) I deal with this by installing local whitelist exceptions for people I talk to regularly. Otherwise, there's always the mailing lists. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
