Hi!

This might be interesting for people here also, especially AT&T customers.
AT&T is blocking a couple of large RBLs on their forwarders currently.

Pretty dumb if you ask me.

"I finally talked to someone who knows what the problem is.  Your sbl
sites have been blocked by the standard DNS forwarders supplied by ATT.
This is due to the workload being generated on them from mailservers."

They blocked Spamhaus and Spamcop for example.

 :( :(

Bye,
Raymond.
