[FC] SPAM blocking

[Bryan Blackwell]

Hi folks,

I have recently implemented some more aggressive SPAM blocking - 
specifically using the SORBS service (http://www.us.sorbs.net/) which 
uses a list of submitted hosts.  This has significantly cut down on 
SPAM - we were getting it at the rate of 2 to 1 (that's with other 
anti-spam measures in place that stopped about 1/3 of the messages).  
To make things worse, our club pass through addresses were generating 
complaints from AOL because of the amount of SPAM.

Unfortunately, this has caught a couple of legitimate hosts, most 
significantly Earthlink.  I have already sent them a note on the topic, 
if you get a bounce message it would be helpful if you forward it to 
your ISP's help address.  You can also let me know if you are having 
posting problems at bryanblackwell62 at yahoo.com.  Sorry for the 
inconvenience.
