Oh dear.  I can see why many sites that once used MAPS now don't :-(

It isn't just idiocy like this thread. They never expire entries from the
RBL, even when IP address space changes hands. The most stupid thing is
that they will not accept bug reports from their customers, insisting that
they come from the sender (not recipient). WTF?!

MODERATE OR GOOD.


Very true.  At my old place of employment a DUHL listed an ip since
before my previous company existed.  For some reason, when we obtained
it, they still listed it. Sounds like a bug in the DUHL bot to me.
Also the standard makes a lot of sense.  You may be on Trend Micros
DUHL by following the rules on SORBS DUHL and vica versa.  Makes life
a pain.
