The fact that I check spamhaus last in my list may have something to do with why it still works for me considering someone's comment that only "high volume" servers were being blocked, whatever "high volume" means. I have found that the following list of RBL's works extremely well and use them all in this order on both of those machines: bl.spamcop.net spamsources.fabel.dk list.dsbl.org cbl.abuseat.org sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org Adam

Re: [vchkpw] [OT] spamhaus down?
I use Matt Simerson's toaster-watcher.pl script to keep my rbl server list 'live', and I still have sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org in my active list.
