Does anyone have any potential solutions? We could use spamhaus but we
would have to be very careful because of the international nature of the

Right now, we are relying on spamassasin + greylisting ... way back when (I don't know how far back), we *had*:

#            reject_rbl_client dnsbl.sorbs.net,
#            reject_rbl_client relays.ordb.org,
#            reject_rbl_client opm.blitzed.org,
#            reject_rbl_client sbl.spamhaus.org,
#            reject_rbl_client list.dsbl.org,

Not sure when we removed, nor why, but someone at some point must have complained ...

I can re-add all of them, if ppl would like ... just say the word ...
