I posted a link to mine quite some time back. Just now I updated it: http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/access Beware, it's draconic. But everything in there is a place from which I've received spam. Oh, and this is *in addition to* using the relays.osirusoft.com DNSBL combination list, which includes SPEWS and many others. Please do not use this file without studying it and probably modifying it first. PS: thanks for giving me credit on that little Perl CIDR script on daemonnews--but could you fix the text which says that 255.255.0.0 is /8 (should be /16)? I tried to send you email, but it bounced. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
