Did you know that China alone accounts for more than a fifth of the world's population? And that the population of Korea and China together is nearly five times as large as that of the US? If you want to blackhole all of them on your server, your are of course free to do so, but please do not advocate that all the world should do so via gratitious default spamassassin rules, sir. It's bad enough that they are all taught in school to be polite and begin their letters with "Dear Sir" and get rewarded with a 3.something SA score. (Yes, I changed that already, thankyouverymuch. There is obviously not enough chinese mail in the GA ham corpus.) SBL & co are there to dynamically nail ISPs that can't be bothered to get rid of spammers. It works very well when applied to web server IPs, as has already been demonstrated. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
