Has anyone notice a huge amount of problems with spamd(8) and Comcast/ATT
Worldnet Service mail servers? Seems that things like 204.127.198.34, and
almost everything in 204.127 is in spews1.
If anyone has a way around this (to only greylist the poor souls

Yes.
This is something that should be fixed, no?
That seems unacceptable to me.
