SpamHaus DROP list

[Michael Mansour]

Hi Alex,

of the SpamHaus DROP list? I've been getting a lot of crap (spam and 
other assorted network nonsense) from places in the DROP list and I'd 
like to know if it's worth implementing at the firewall level. Any info 
on false positives would be good too, specially if there are any 
otherwise legit servers in that "rough network neighborhood".
I've been using the droplist for years and have never had any issues with it.

I have a script which runs which queries the site for new updates, then applies to the blocklist and runs a shorewall refresh automatically.

I've never had complaints from anyone from getting blocked from those IP's, since they are IP's which have been hijacked.

Regards,

Michael.
