I received this, and Reason: Service unavailable; Client host [205.152.59.64] blocked using bl.spamcop.net; Blocked - see http://www.spamcop.net/bl.shtml?205.152.59.64 this is the bellsouth.net mail server. I respect the rdnsbl's, but please use spamcop as a filter, use cbl.abuseat.org if you want accurate results. Anyone can place an IP on a blacklist with a couple of reports to spamcop, and as I remember, it takes 24 hours before the block is in place. I've run a few mail servers before, and I do use the rdnsbl's, but spamcop is only used as a filter. Please reconsider using this as an absolute block. -- B Briggs
