Legitimate proven RBLs do have a place, in a weighting system. We use RBLs
very effectively in our spam software but the entire spam filtering is built
around weights. Every element is assigned a weight, and actions are taken on
weight levels. That means it would take at least 2 major RBLs to hold a
message, and at least 3 major RBLs to delete a message. I and others using
this software have proven over time that there are no false positives when
using this method. In this discussion, saying no false positives means there
was a legitimate reason that the server was listed, even if temporarily.

I don't know about the scams part, but I agree. Don't use them. I'm not
placing control of my email in the hands of vigilantes. There are much
better technologies available that give you control over what mail you
receive.

Hey Bruce,

 

Fact is that all RBLs are scams. Don't use them. There is much better
technology out there to help you in your war against spam.

Thanks for the info.  I have checked for open relay and my mail server does
not allow relay.  I found a internal fax server that was infected with
backdoor and hacktools and clean it up it may have been relaying via being
on the inside of the network.  I do not think I am spamming now, I have
turned on message tracking to manually check.  After looking up info on
Blars it looks like this guy is not reliable and does not work and play well
with others in other words he might even be a scam I'm am not sure yet.  He
is the only one to blacklist my server.  I am still in the process of
learning the nuts and bolts of spaming; I will report back to the list the
knowledge I acquire on this problem.  I am also installing MS IMF.

 

 

Thanks Bruce Rose

My Exchange got blacklisted by Blars, anyone know a way to check an exchange
server to see if it is a spam machine.
