Using the Spamcop BL *solely* as the basis for rejecting mail is a sure way to lose wanted email. From Spamcop's website: "... SpamCop encourages use of the SCBL in concert with an actively maintained whitelist of wanted email senders. SpamCop encourages SCBL users to tag and divert email, rather than block it outright." "The SCBL is aggressive and often errs on the side of blocking mail... Many mailservers operate with blacklists in a "tag only" mode, which is preferable in many situations." IMO, the best use of the SCBL is as a scoring metric with Spam Assassin. Additional discussion should be directed to SPAM-L. -- Bob Poortinga K9SQL <http://www.linkedin.com/in/bobpoortinga> Bloomington, Indiana US
