What is the Burnt-Tech DNSBL?

Burnt-Tech's Block List takes it's source data from numerous spamtraps.  Spam trap addresss are virus scanned in an attempt to avoid listing infected machines.

The Block List runs entirely automated and designed to avoid listings of spamtrap hits due to bounces of forged spam, virus bounces, and "real" mail servers emitting the occasional spam. It tries very hard to avoid listing legitimate mail sources. It does not attempt to list every possible spam source.

This list is based on information believed to be reliable. No warranty is made that it is accurate or complete....
Use entirely at your own risk. We do! : )

How to use it!

The Burnt-Tech BL can be queried in the usual way for DNS-based blocking lists, under the name dnsbl.burnt-tech.com.

Entries in the DNSBL are returned with an IP address (always 127.0.0.2) and a TXT record containing a link to the lookup page.
