The RBL team has occasionally received and followed up on some spam, traced it back through multiple providers, only to discover that it was forged by a somebody's competitor. We blackholed the real source in those cases, not the forged source. The telephone is a marvelous tool for figuring out what really happened, and our use of the phone is one of the things that makes the RBL so difficult to maintain. -- Paul Vixie <[email protected]>
