You can browse their database, but it wont tell you the actual -10 (overwhelmingly likely to be a spam sender) to +10 (pure innocent angels of email) rating unless you've got a license. You can set the IronPort box to whatever threshold you want for blocking sending hosts.

(I just posted a couple "rules" to the FC mailing list about them.
A spam was relayed through them to the list followed by two shills
who copied the entire message and complained at the bottom "pro
forma." This is not the first time this has happened.)
