And just _HOW_ would one even know they HAD a paid service or what their thresholds are? Nothing on their web site, nothing on the pbl.spamhaus.org web site. I am paying for a commercial DCC service, so I understand about commercial use. (pardon the did at last weeks conversations) nothing saying this (use of spamhaus) is a 'introductory' free offer. SA removed (commented out) DCC plugin since it is a dual use (free for non-commercial use) paid subscription for commercial use. Why not warn people about the 'temporary' RBLS? And how would ANYONE using it EVER know they were blocked except that their email would start slowing down as pbl/zen... Etc starting taking 5 mins each to fail? Its not like each and every one of our ip addresses doesn't resolve, our whois record is correct, even include working phone numbers. -- Michael Scheidell, CTO >|SECNAP Network Security Winner 2008 Network Products Guide Hot Companies FreeBsd SpamAssassin Ports maintainer Charter member, ICSA labs anti-spam consortium _________________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned and certified safe by SpammerTrap(tm).
