Checking against ISP customer IP pools is pretty rare. My ISP's mailserver is blocked by three RBLs I check against at last check, I'd rather not route outbound through servers with known stupid admins. > Personally, though, I don't use a smarthost as these sites are few > and far between these days, provided that you have a static IP > address. Yup. Mostly because assuming a particular ISP is a spammer based entirely on the fact it's on the other side of a dialup, cable modem, or DSL bridge fromt he rest of the net is draconian and considered stupid by most admins. - -- Baloo -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE85bvqNtWkM9Ny9xURAvZaAJ9LrreeKKsX47lPK+0JgxlMyM2lPgCfbpF6 vhlmQbehHr37ieRayK/9AgY= =jzy7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
