The RBL is for spammers, that is, UCE (Unsolicited Commercial Email), UBE (Unsolicited Bulk Email), also, fraud (mailbombing etc) is sometimes considered spam.
It is *not* intended for misconfigured/-programmed mailers, nor a list of open relays (ORBS http://www.orbs.org/ is doing that). Read http://maps.vix.com/rbl/candidacy.html . So, the RBL is simply the wrong place for something like that. Also the RBL is used throughout the internet for *blackholing* all IP-connectivity from spammers. If you misconfigured your MTA (or simply chose a, say, "broken", one), what would you say if you were cut off from ~ 40 % of the internet, as would be the effect if you were RBLed? I sent a (friendly) message to the postmaster at my.netvigator.com already, informing them of the problem and pointing out directions to fix it. You may want to do the same. cheers, &rw >On 20-Sep-2000 Osamu Aoki wrote: >> I hate stupid MTA causing this problem.
