The model can be extended to "if no rDNS, and if spamtrap hits or other spammish behavior noted from more than X IPs per /24, then block the /24".And why would blocking the /24 be appropriate instead of matching the registry? srs -- srs (postmaster|suresh)@outblaze.com // gpg : EDEDEFB9 manager, outblaze.com security and antispam operations
