so I'm assuming that my zone would be named something like rbl.mydomain.com
and then each IP address that I would block would have an ip address of
127.0.0.2?
insert into records (domain_id, name, type, content) values
('<zone_id>', '192.168.35.2' , 'A', '127.0.0.2')
Is this correct?
Its a given that I would periodically have to purge, but I'd rather have
the system check against the localhost, then zen.spamhaus.org, then others.
