I was under the impression that Spamcop didn't regard listing earthlink/gmail/hotmail/foo as a problem. They're smart enough to have their own internal whitelists that they can handle as they see fit - those servers don't exactly get listed at the first sign of trouble so it seems somewhat deliberate to me. You may find a personal whitelist more suited to your needs. Either use it as a guide to not bother doing RBL checks for a message but still process other rules or use it as a meta to 0 out any RBL hit you find. Kevin
