It can be quite frustrating to run an ISP and comply with the often
arbitrary, strange, and I suspect contradictory demands of the likes
of SORBS and Trend Micro. An ISP Abuse handler vents in this article.
SORBS would only put you in their DUL listing for anything resembling
hosts that are dynamic, those who block based on spam only would never
see this as an issue (had many a dealing with SORBS, for the most part they
were understanding and co-operative - I say "were" because we have been
lucky enough not to have had any need to interact with them in a good few
years now, but Matthew knows I have a zero spam tolerance and effective
policies)
Can't comment on trend micro never used them, dont intend to, but
to demand you must use mail/smtp is laughable, who the hell do they think
they are to dictate that, the only losers there are trend micro users,
and unless they change their policy, ultimately, it will be trend micro
who lose.
