barracusa says spam, jmf whitelist is obvious.
I agree. In fact I removed that host from my white list. I am very
interested in the idea of someone cross checking lists to see if my
JEF list disagrees with other lists because as a list owner I know
that my list has room for improvement. I would welcome anyone who can
send me an automated feed of suspected errors.
...why should you rely on someone else to do that for you? You have
the list, can't you proactively run the IPs in it against
JMF/Barracuda/etc. to detect disagreements?
I do. But sometimes something happen after I whitelist an IP than
casuses it to go black or mixed. And if I don't get spammed it doesn't
come to my attention something has changed. So other perspective helps.
We don't all get the same spam. And I've seen a number of false
positives on Barracuda so a disagreement doesn't indicate who is right.
Sometime I can even look at the message and I still can't tell.
