Hi, Philip, What's life like in the near future? Does everyone have a flying car yet? That's my (not so) subtle way of saying your date/time stamp is way off. Just thought you should know.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Discrepancies in New GLOBAL.CFG
Given that OSSRC and OSSOFT are no longer effective, besides EASYNET-DNSBL and SPAMCOP, what are others giving good Weight to, thanks for the info. Keith -Original Message- From: R.

[Declude.JunkMail] Discrepancies in New GLOBAL.CFG
Hello, All, I've been reviewing the current v1.75 GLOBAL.CFG versus my current GLOBAL.CFG and I had some questions about 3 tests... OSSOFT OSSRC WIREHUB-DNSBL The WIREHUB-DNSBL looks like it has been replaced by EASYNET-DNSBL. Is that correct? OSSOFT is no longer in the v1.75 GLOBAL.CFG. Is this test no longer any good? Because it still seems to be helping out in my current weight-based system. OSSRC is still in GLOBAL.CFG but it has been commented out and moved to the Not Commonly Used section. Does anyone know why this was changed? It also still seems to be a valid test and it's not a pay service so I don't understand the move.
