Correct, but if you read the "How can I help" page: So, how do I help? If you receive a spam email you can test the suspect servers the spam has travelled through and make them send an email to listme (at) dsbl (dot) org. If one or more of these servers is non-secure and actually sends the test mail on to DSBL, they will be added to the DSBL list and the rest of the world will be protected from spam sent by these servers. The messages to listme need to be in a certain format, which no spam will be. The idea is for random people on the net to test for open relays and have that specially formatted mail be sent to the listme address. -- Randomly Generated Tagline: "Those who do not archive the past are condemned to retype it!" - Garfinkel and Spafford _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
