Blacklist Profiles\Alligate-MXRate Sender Reputation Service
First, MXRate is not a blacklist in the traditional sense. Rather, it is better defined as a Sender Reputation Database. There are dozens anti-spam databases, blacklists, and DNS tests available. Many are typically built and maintained from reports from individual users who receive unwanted email. Others are built from more automated procedures such as maintaining "spam traps" which are email accounts specifically set up to "attract" spam. We have designed our database to be completely dynamic and it will change constantly from one hour to the next. Because of this we have achieved a highly accurate database that contains up to the minute data on current, active spammers. By downgrading or discarding data on inactive spammers, data on current spammers becomes more accurate and trustworthy.
