No they don't...

Not possible. Joe has not listed iAdvantage as an open relay, nor anything
that you can get off. Hence there is no resolution method... you can visit
the militany NANAE newsgroup for resolution, but if you take a look at the
messages there.... ugh... swearing at each other, threats, etc. Take a
look for yourself.

Well, I don't think many people are really go and use xbl.selwerd.cx.
There are plenty of super militany groups like selwerd like blars.org (i
think?) and others.

Sure they are. relays.osirusoft.com is a combination of other RBLS like
spews, and also Joe Jared's own personal list. It is Joe Jared's own
personal list that is the problem... NOT Spews, NOT the other RBLs.

Yes... this one is.

I beg you to differ. Alternatively, go there, and enter, just for example,
mailserv.iadvantage.net. Try and find another list that has
mailserv.iadvantage.net and see for yourself.
