The listing is at http://www.spamcop.net/w3m?action=checkblock&ip=70.103.162.31 (expires in nine hours). It appears the machine sent mail to a spamtrap. It has been listed five times in the last six months. I think that's worth looking into. If it did indeed send mail to a spamtrap, the listing is justified, even if it's rather inconvenient. If that machine has become a target for spammers who would like to make spamtraps useless (for example, taking any action that would send an automated confirmation message from a high-volume server to a spamtrap address), the answer is not to abandon SpamCop. Any DNSBL that uses spamtraps is susceptible to this ploy. I'm willing to look into a solution if nobody else is interested. -- Seth Goodman -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
