Apologies for the late reply on this one!
I've now implimented 127.0.0.2 blocking on my mail server using
dsbl.org, abuseat.org, spamhaus.org and spamcop.net. In addition I'm
also using an old spews list which I downloaded before it went tits-up
which I've run through sort and uniq and then converted to dbm format
and am doing dbm lookups against it.
I've also started an "internal" list, which at the moment is just a flat
text file against which exim is doing linear searches, where I'm
entering IP addresses or IP subnets of spam that is still slipping
through this net.
Oh, I'm also running spamassassin!
ANd its amazing what is still slipping through! By far 95% of spam that
is still getting through is coming from cable/dsl/dialup related blocks
of IP addresses.
So what I was wondering was whether anyone know of any more
comprehensive list of dynamic IP address ranges: I'd like to impliment a
simple rule which just blocks all connections from dynamic IP address
subnets?
I know its a controversial move, and a lot of people disagree with it,
but its me that is getting the spam!
Thanks
Konrad
