Has anyone had any dealings with this guy. I take my mail server very seriously. Further I take spamming very seriously in general.
Even when I detect one of my customers sending spam I disable there internet until the problem is resolved The guy that runs the blarsbl list wants to charge my company 1500$ to remove our mail server from his list. When it was listed there for no good reason. I checked my mail logs going back 6 months there wasn't a single email sent nor received from this guys domain and or ip block. It would seem to me he's nothing more then a petty extortionist. Anyone else had to deal with this? This is the guy's www site http://www.blars.org/errors/block.html Here is a quote from his www site If you would like a site be added or removed from BlarsBL, you may hire Blars at his normal consulting rates (currently $250/hour, 2 hour minimum, $1000 deposit due in advance for non-established customers) to investigate your evidence about the site. If it is found that the entry was a mistake, no charge will be made and the entire deposit will be refunded. Send Blars email from a non-listed account to verify current rates and arrange payment.
