Yes this does work, but it consumes some of the space available in the blacklist. I am not sure of the size, but the web interface can't seem to handle really long lists - so leaving comments out gives you more room for IPs. I actually save all the spam that makes me blacklist IPs into text files named with the IP number. I have them web-accessible so that spammers can see why they were hit. http://spam.eton.ca/ (look for the link on that page). >Second, in the release notes for version 1.8b8, it says: > "Custom messages can be sent to addresses blocked by black lists." >Ifound one entry in the archive that seemed to be making reference to >this by editing strings via ResEdit.

So, for example, here is one of my RBL Server List entries: bl.spamcop.net "Spam blocked see: http://spam.eton.ca/"; -- Neil Neil Herber, RGD Corporate info at http://www.eton.ca/ Eton Systems, 15 Pinepoint Drive, Nepean, ON, Canada K2H 6B1 Tel: (613) 829-4668 ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
