Hi all -
        I'm testing the use of some DNS blacklists to cut down on my spam
and there are a lot of servers to choose from.  I was wondering if there
is a list of popular servers.  I've seen comparison lists, but I'm hoping
for more of a survey of sysadmins and what they use (if anything).

relays.osirusoft.com -- has a feed from SPEWS, not everyone likes what that represents

dnsbl.njabl.org
  -- very good, although slow to remove sites that fix things up

relays.ordb.org
  -- pretty conservative, no false positives

list.dsbl.org
  -- extremely good, but I get a few false positives from time to time

multihop.dsbl.org
  -- a bit too severe for my tastes

blackholes.wirehub.net
-- seems ok, but as it's at the end of my list it doesn't have the chance to catch much, I suppose.


I've heard favourable reviews of opm.blitzed.org, blackholes.five-ten-sg.com and proxies.relays.monkeys.com

Before you start using remote blacklists, you should set up your own restrictions, blocking on garbage HELO, envelope forgeries and the like.
