Combined list tailored to the needs of the operator.

Probably too aggressive for blocking on shared servers, but may be used on scoring systems like SpamAssassin with good reults.


"too aggressive" is putting it mildly. If even one server sends out spam they blacklist all servers at the ISP. In my case the ISP which hosts my server also hosts about 100000 other servers. My server is not even on the same network block as the one that they are blacklisting, but because I am at the same company, that is enough for them to list my server. I have contacted Five-Ten multiple times on this issue and they come across with a very arrogant attitude and are completely unwilling to reconsider their ridicules stance. even when I showed them that on the list they gave me of spammers at my ISP, I showed them that most of those "spammers" had already been shutdown by the ISP, which does have an anti-spam policy. But that was not good enough for them. As long as there is one person in this world who has sent spam, they feel they have the right to block the entire world. It's a joke. avoid them, they are not a legitimate source of information. You can contact me at abuse@possummail.com and I can provide emails documenting my conversations with these people.
