Please be aware that my understanding is of the general principles employed by the various Spamhaus block lists. I have no role in compiling the block lists — that is the remit of a completely different team. I can talk to the generalities but not to specifics as I have no more insight into specifics than anyone else with access to the Spamhaus Projects' Blocklist Removal Centre at <https://www.spamhaus.org/lookup/ <https://www.spamhaus.org/lookup/>>. And I’ll decline to post the rest of my reply following the abuse up thread.
Okay, never mind Spamhaus, you have a mind yourself? This thread is not about Spamhaus or any specific DNSBL, it is about the timing of auto de-listing, specialist DNSBL and general society (you & me & all of us - even the assehole idiots (I am an asshole idiot myself) as well as those with strong POV. like Prince Olaf) - whether we agree or disagree with something or a pov - is not relevant but understanding of the different opinions, is actually of great value Also, MOST DNSBL are reactive. I do agree that many DNSBL are pro active - but there are just over 200 DNSBL (that I know of) and by far the majority are reactive. So, Simon, with that in mind, what do you think about my original posting / thread, instead of getting stuck on where the various DNSBL sources data from, can we maybe talk about the other questions?
