Hi!

When did you experience this last time, this is not what we see on
various antispam projects.
So if you have new information, please share, we didnt see bogons used a
lot at least the last 12 months.
Drop list is a completely different thing, and effective, but also
effective to loos legitimate mails, the blocks inside there are too wide.
I would not recommend people putting that inside iptables or something ;)
Bogon filtering is something that should be considered common practice. So
your borders or upstreams should take care of that ;)
Bye,
Raymond.
