[Apnic-announce] APNIC will begin using greylisting in August

[APNIC Secretariat <secretariat@apnic.net>]

Dear colleague

For some time now, APNIC has been receiving large amounts of spam, 
which is affecting our ability to respond to legitimate emails.

Greylisting is a recent technique for reducing spam. Following 
successful trials of this technique at APNIC, we will start using 
greylisting in our email delivery systems on 8 August 2005.

This change will reduce the amount of spam received by both the APNIC 
Secretariat and ease the administration of APNIC mailing lists.

Anyone sending legitimate email to APNIC should not be affected by the 
introduction of greylisting. However, if you do notice that your email 
is not being accepted by APNIC, please contact the APNIC Member 
Services Helpdesk immediately:

    Phone  +617 3858 3188
    Fax    +617 3858 3199
