153.35.0.0/16, 153.36.0.0/16, 153.37.0.0/16 *all* belong to UU.NET and are
used for multiple nationwide ISP dialups.  Send mail to abuse () uu net, and
consider blocking these prefixes from connecting to your SMTP servers.

Can anyone confirm that the entirety of these /16 networks (i.e.
NET-UUNETCUSTB35, NET-UUNETCUSTB36, and NET-UUNETCUSTB37) are all used
for dial-up by UUNET?  Are there any more?  I'd love to add them to my
TCP Wrappers config, but since I publish that list I'd like to know with
a bit more certainty than just "I heard it on NANOG"....

I wish all dial-up providers would use an easily recognizable (by TCP
Wrappers) subdomain for their dial-up port PTRs, and that they'd all
co-operatively publish these domain names in some common place.....

My current list of such subdomains is available down at the end of:
