Nope, you need to choose the RIGHT blackhole lists. SPEWS is notoriously bad for not unlisting IP addresses which is why I don't use them. Most blackhole lists I use I am sure provide automated tools for retesting and unlisting IP addresses, and/or expire entries after a set time period. -- Regards, +-----------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Peter Kiem .^. | E-Mail : <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | | Zordah IT /V\ | Mobile : +61 0414 724 766 | | IT Consultancy & /( )\ | WWW : www.zordah.net | | Internet Services ^^-^^ | ICQ : "Zordah" 866661 | +-----------------------------+---------------------------------+ My current spamtrap address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
