Do you not also have to blacklist the IPs that these return on finding a positive match? (127.0.0.2 being a common one)


Oops. You're right of course. Sorry I forgot that important detail.


I actually blacklist more than necessary:

127.0.0.2-127.0.0.255
127.1.0.1-127.1.0.31

The first line is probably overkill, but I don't know of any reason not to blacklist the whole bunch. I know that at least one of the RBLs I use commonly uses 127.0.0.10. I don't remember the others off the top of my head.

And I honestly don't remember why I had the second line in there (it's been there for years - probably before I figured out how to add comments to the blacklist). But I figure it's not going to hurt anything either.
