Actually there was when openlists.relays.osirusoft.com got added, luckily Joe realized quickly and removed it. There still is rather high collateral damage due to spews.relays.osirusoft.com but that appears to be getting more under control now. relays.osirusoft.com now has something like 20-25 million 'users' (SWBell, Prodigy and Outblaze account for at least 18 million users). Although I know Outblaze (6 million users) manually adjust the relays.osirusoft.com zone they use, removing some of the larger spews entries. I've been using relays.osirusoft.com and relays.ordb.org for a couple of months on all 3 mail servers here and so far my customers are happy. I know one of two of them have had an occasional mail bounce mainly due to some of BTinternet's mail relays on one of the lists, but I've had no complaints (I actually think customers are becoming more bounce-resistant, they seem to enjoy telling their friends whose mail bounced "you ISP is blackdusted for spinning or something, anyway its bad and our cool high-tech ISP uses anti-blackdusting stuff!"). -- Steve Linford Ultradesign Xtreme Network http://www.uxn.com ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
