I don't know who counts as "regular", but that would've rejected quite a few useful messages in the past month. For example, top-level domains .uk, .se, .fi and .ws are listed, as indeed about half of Europe. My present address would thus also be blocked, even though "jyu.fi" has always had perfect whois info in RIPE, but rfc-ignorant.org doesn't accept that because it's not maintained by .fi registrar. The postmaster, abuse and DSN lists would be more useful, but even they are problematic - I gave up using them here a while back because of increasing number of false positives (sites whose problems had been fixed ages ago but still listed at rfc-ignorant.org). I would recommend against using rfc-ignorant.org on the list. -- Tapani Tarvainen -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
