I tried to stay away from this thread - but I can't really.
Instead of accusing monkeys, MS or anybody else, can you even imagine
what efforts it takes to run such a BL or a site like spamhaus ?
It's not only technical, spammers ddosing you any minute, it's also about
lawsuits, spammers threatening you (maybe even your family) on the phone
and what not.
Instead of COMPLAINING about something YOU screwed up you should praise
these guys, give them a donation and - honestly - STFU.
