FWIW, all the blacklists I use (and 510sg is only the first line of defense ;-)) have documentation available about the reasons for listing IP blocks. F'r instance, looking up Thomas' IP I get: xo.com.spam-support.blackholes.five-ten-sg.com. 23h32m50s IN TXT "added 2002-01-05; spam support - dns server at 64.1.121.57 supporting http://www.poxteam2001.com" xo.com.spam-support.blackholes.five-ten-sg.com. 23h32m50s IN TXT "added 2002-01-07; spam support - dns server at 64.1.121.57 supporting http://compower.numberop.com" xo.com.spam-support.blackholes.five-ten-sg.com. 23h32m50s IN TXT "added 2002-03-07; spam support - hosting http://207.88.179.193 - terminated" xo.com.spam-support.blackholes.five-ten-sg.com. 23h32m50s IN TXT "added 2002-03-10; spam support - hosting http://thecottagemonitor.com" xo.com.spam-support.blackholes.five-ten-sg.com. 23h32m50s IN TXT "added 2002-03-13; spam support - hosting http://shortcuts2learning.com" xo.com.spam-support.blackholes.five-ten-sg.com. 23h32m50s IN TXT "added 2002-03-24; spam support - hosting http://209.164.32.75/consumer_first_funding" But this is getting pretty far off-topic for the PG lists. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
