Its a little outdated... For example: Invaluement DNSBL [Note: Commercial] ivmURI and ivmSIP are good solid and professionally operated lists. ivmURI is a URI (domain) DNSBL like SURBL or URIBL or DBL, with high effectiveness (comparable with DBL/URIBL/SURBL), extremely low false positives, and quick to list. ivmSIP is a IP-based DNSBL which is particularly good at catching "new" emitters. Its FP rate is quite low. Neither of which should be considered substitutes for Spamhaus Zen/Spamcop, but do complement them well. They no longer exist. SPEWS, TQMCube, ORDB, OSIRUS, MONKEYS, DSBL All of these lists have been decommissioned and should not be used. DO NOT USE. The spameatingmonkeys *does* exist. -- micah
