I recently (~26 Feb 2007) submitted two RBL blocks to SORBS (85.93.37.128-85.93.37.191 and 86.212.217.0-86.212.217.255). My emails created 2 tickets on rt.sorbs.net, but the tickets remain "new", even though the autoreply said they should be handled in 24-48 hours. The tickets did get moved from the "DUHL" queue to the "DUHL Nominations" queue, but that's about it. Is this normal speed for SORBS?
One of the blocks had this in its WHOIS info: descr: ADSL pool Darovskoy so I was pretty confident it was a pool of ADSL/dynamic addresses. The other just had this: netname: IP2000-ADSL-BAS In other words, the netname just had "ADSL" in it. Is that a pretty good indication that this is an ADSL pool? I'm worried that, somewhere in the netblock, there's a legit SMTP server that shouldn't be blocked? Is there any sort of naming convention here that ISPs follow? Like "if there's an ADSL in the netname, it's all dynamic IPs, no legit SMTP servers"? -- We're just a Bunch Of Regular Guys, a collective group that's trying to understand and assimilate technology.
