Fast forward 15 years and it still seems to happening!

AS54801 is assigned to "Zillion Network Inc." with connectivity in Hong Kong. Their website (http://zillionnetwork.com/) does not say anything about who they are, where they are, what their prices are... it doesn't even expose HTTPS.

I use multiple RBLs on my private mail server, one of which was https://www.spamhaus.org/ (specifically the "zen" blocklist), but they suddenly became way too aggressive and started blocking a bunch of legitimate email, so they are out now.

Are you missing a bunch of email in the last few days and are you using Spamhaus? Might want to check your logs.

We have blocked against Level 3 - Level 5 threat levels for fediverse spam. Still monitoring the situation at hand: github.com/Mastodon-DE/blocklists/blob/main/spam/2024-02-15/2024-02-15-spam-mute-list.md

🚨 UPDATE 🚨 Attention abuse desks, Trust & Safety teams, and senders!

We've started the process of relocating Spamhaus Blocklist (SBL) listings. From now on, SBL email notifications will point to the Spamhaus IP and Domain Reputation Checker 👉 https://check.spamhaus.org

Further changes will be implemented in the coming weeks, and the SBL listings will be moved entirely to the Checker.
