That may or may not be, but since you didn't show any bounce from uoregon, your claim of "abuse of DNSOP lists" in the subject line appears to be unsupported.


And I'd read the error message to suggest that perhaps Av8's net block had *been* hijacked (in someone's experience, not necessarily world-wide, which would be an interesting problem for globally distributed block lists), not that Av8 necessarily had done it.

Av8 Internet hereby demands that the IETF immediately end this behavior
and halt the defamation of Av8 Internet, Inc by IETF representatives.
IETF representatives must use email addresses that are not configured for
defamation of Av8 Internet, Inc.

Yes, I'm sure that SRA was the one who submitted Av8's netblock to SORBS, and set up ISC to use SORBS, as part of a secret plot to ruin your reputation. </sarcasm>


How about suggesting a more positive solution, instead of throwing around language like "defamation"? Maybe, "IETF WG chairs should have/use addresses that don't reject mail based on unreliable block lists (for some definition of 'unreliable'), and the IETF should provide a forwarding service for those chairs who cannot otherwise get such an address."

I would also suggest you try to resolve the issue with SORBS, except that when I tried the URL suggested, I got "ERROR: Couldn't prepare statement: $dbh is (undef)". So I guess you could question the reliability of this particular service....
