Re: Need web server recommendation



Ease up chief, as I understand it, these days lots of folks are getting
black listed even though they are not spammers.  As far as I can tell SPEWS
is the worst about it.  They have not problem blocking legitimate businesses
who have never sent a bit of spam in their lifetime simply because the
netblock they were allocated comes close to a spammer.  They expand their
black hold to consume and hurt the upstream provider, even though the
upstream provider may not be directly spamming either.  I'm not willing to
get into an ethical or philosophical discussion about this practice, just
recognize that because some says 'I can't through the spam filter' can no
longer legitimately be translated into 'hey, I'm a spammer.'
