I've blocked over 40,000 spam messages since the beginning of the week, as you can see here. I'm thinking about re-enabling the DUL (dynamic users list) to block servers on dynamic IPs from sending e-mail to ServerForest — after looking into it, I know of exactly one person legitimately doing so in thousands of messages I looked through. This won't block users with dynamic IP's on their desktops, only those trying to send through a server on a dynamic IP (which in 99.9% of the cases means the PC has been hijacked). I also think I will remove some of the non-effective lists (no sense wasting resources querying servers that never block anything), and move some of the more-effective ones up in the order of the effectiveness… thereby reducing the amount of queries my server must make.

Tim, I have DSL which uses dynamic IP. Will this mean I could get blocked from sending mail to CS-FSLUG?

No, not unless you run your own SMTP server on your computer.
