Three points: 1) It is known this list is read by spammers to learn what we are doing. I've verified this with "challenge/response" tactics including taunting more than once.
Shhhhh! They'll hear you! :)
2) On several occasions now Richard has tried to torpedo valid attempts to scuttle spam. (I've STILL not seen a spam get through that has the HABEAS tag. I am lower volume than you guys. So that's simply my own verification of other people's data sets indicating HABEAS has a very low but not zero false alarm rate.)
I've seen them. And also some occasional hits on DNSWL. Was enough to make me ask my question about 'targeting'..... But not enough to change scores.
I am making no conclusion here. I'm presenting facts. Call me out on the facts not the "taunt" lest you damage your argument.
Actually, you *make* my argument. When presented with facts, you respond with facts. Not taunts or conspiracy theories. You haven't called me a name or attempted to demean my character or motives. Nor have you belittled my capabilities (except in the ordinary way of letting your facts speak for themselves, which is valuable constructive criticism).
Thanks for the response. - C
