    Not a firewall issue per se, but we all use mail, don't we?

    If you use dorkslayers.com RBLs: STOP NOW.

    The dorkslayers RBLs have been down for quite some time, which
    is nondestructive in and of itself. But with VeriSign's latest
    stunt - returning 64.94.110.11 for all unknown domains - RBL
    lookups will return hits for anything under dorkslayers.com

    And, yes, I do recognize the irony in trying to get the
    warning out this way.
