I will rise to the bait and beg to differ. While I know that others on this list disagree, I'd be more inclined to say that the use of RBLs is universally misguided at best.
You don't have to agree with me, you don't even have to acknowledge that some mail admins think they cause to much collateral damage to be worth using. I happen to think that these services are not the universal necessity that you're suggesting. However, I suggest that the same skepticism properly used to evaluate the claims of tobacco scientists be applied to those who say 'we're going to block mail for you, but it's only going to be mail you don't want'. You might find that that position isn't such a great troll after all. ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
