It was my first impression too that they were a bit 'big brotherish' about things and the method they list domains could potentialy just be used to attack/block a competitior or just some upset person wanting to settle a personal vendeta. I suppose judicious use of procmail as well as FEATURE(realyxxx) rules would do a fair job of things on their own. I've alread got a rather large black_list setup for sendmail, would just have to tear into procmail. Scary as I hear it's quite a rough going doing procmail.
