That's the first report I've had of the spamlist.org database bouncing mail from a legit source.Okay, hiebing.com rejected my mail. Given how much *crap* has been added to their SpamAssassin and MTA configuration, it's no wonder it ain't so fast.

Are you saying that spamlist.org and the add-in rulesets I'm using are crap? They seemed to be useful, legit tools to me, but I'm here to learn. If it's to be avoided, I'm all for it.
My understanding was that the spamlist.org list would cut my processing load at the MTA level... isn't it easier to not accept the mail, than to accept it and then process it for ham/spam?
