Oh my....


It seems that Tomasz ISP (or TOmasz system itself) began using some
shitty RBLs which probably blacklist entire address blocks, which
include those from Proxad/Free which I use at home.


Please please please, if you have some power to make that stop, please
please tell these people that RBL are pure bloody crappy shit which
most of the time prevent people to send legitimate mails rather than
blocking spam.

Spam control should be done with appropriate software, not by randomly
blocking addresses, which goes againt one of the very first goal of
the Internet=C2=A0: free and easy communication.

Please repeat after me : RBL SUCK AND ARE USELESS. The only blacklists
I personnally approve are blacklists of open relays only such as my
friends from will-spam-for-food.eu.org


In the meantime, I will be force to setup an alternate route for mails
sent to Tomasz domain and that sucks.


And, to answer the question some people may have=C2=A0: no, I don't want =
to
use my ISP SMTP server except when forced to do so=C2=A0: why would I rel=
y
on them while I can rely just on myself to send mails?

I work that way for 15 years now and I see no reason to change
anything, dammit.

/me, angry.

Tomasz, the attached patch is a Debian patch to ./configure.in

Do you have an advice about integrating it upstream=C2=A0?

I indeed have no idea of the real purpose, but you people developers
will certainly know..:-)
