(can we come up with an RBL for domains registered with jokers?)

There are some legit domains hosted on joker :p


Ok, so out of thousands, there are 'some'.

You sleep with dogs, you get flees.

Bleh. As much as I loathe spammers, I loathe even more the RBLs which take this "collateral damage is not just ok, it's preferred" point of view.

If someone does make a Registrar RBL and a Name Server RBL (both of which are good ideas), _PLEASE_ do something like this:

a) have two lists for each RBL, one which has the above "kill the bystanders" point of view, and one which is much more conservative in its listing policies.

b) have an RBL which returns different values for different confidence levels. Something like a percentage of known spammers are on that specific provider. So, if a registrar is 60% spammers and 40% bystanders, it will return "60"... and I can choose to only block those who have a 99% or higher rating, or something. This would also, hopefully, allow SA to give different score values to different ratings.
