Folks, I would like to announce the availability of a new IP4R database that includes a blacklist, whitelist, suspicious list, and a neutral list (IP address that have not been classified). Here is the breakdown on the list usage:
Service hostname: pub.senderdb.net 127.0.0.2 Black List 127.0.0.3 White List 127.0.0.4 Suspicious List 127.0.0.5 Neutral List They will be updating their web site today with some documentation and contact info, but you can access it now at www.senderdb.com. A little history about the company providing these new list: The parent company is Solid Oak Software, the developers of the popular Cybersitter parent filtering software. About a year ago they came out with a new spam-filtering gateway product call Alligate (www.alligate.com) that was largely developed around their Cybersitter technology. Throughout that year they realized that with over 500,000 mailboxes being filter by Alligate gateways, they had a very large pool of data to work with in putting together some large and very accurate IP4R databases, which spanned the database lists above. So, in an effort to give something back to the spam-fighting community, they decided to make these lists freely available. I personally have no affiliation with the company, other than I have worked with then to test several of their products over the past two years. I have been using their new IP4R lists for about two weeks now, and have found them to be very good (high hit counts) and extremely accurate. And in case you're wondering, yes, I did ask if I could announce the availability of these new databases on these various lists and was given approval, so have at it... Bill
