This list (dnsbl.sorbs.net) is not necessarily spammers and should NOT be a sole basis for blocking email. Someone with admin on the KCLUG server please remove this ridiculous block. I am not using my ISP's SMTP relay because it also is blocked-- not because it is dynamic, but because it is on a legitimate spam blacklist.

Hear, hear!

I agree with this enough to reconfigure and restart my mail server just to route around this block.

It's far more likely that a LUG user is running a legitimate mail server that is MORE secure from spam than his ISP's than that the list is getting spammed by some viral bot on a home winbox. Use dnsbl.sorbs.org for scoring, not for blocking.
