We've already had a discussion about how rabid some blacklisters are. If even one person at an ISP forgets that they signed up for a newsletter and complains to the ISP, the ISP may shut down delivery from that source to everyone. I'm not talking about large DNS-based blacklists here, I'm talking about locally-installed ISP filtering rules. > Personally I would just ignore it unless you start getting complaints > from your customers. How will they know to complain? They can't tell the difference between a newsletter blocked by the ISP and a newsletter that simply was never sent. If they complain to anyone, they're likely to complain to the site where they signed up for the newsletter -- a site that may not even be able to respond to their complaint, because of the blacklist! ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek No, I will not fix your computer. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
