Concerning to:
  • Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0 for Windows Workstations (all builds)
  • The reasons why the Anti-Spam component does not use RBL are given below: 

    • RBL is server-oriented 
    • The RBL service functions slowly (using DNS-queries) 
    • The IP-addresses of the addressee can be correctly checked on the SMTP-server only 
    • IP-address of the addressee cannot be detected by personal anti-spam 
    • No one is responsible for the information in public RBL 
    • RBL is used as the means of a competition 
    • Your provider or your recipient network can get into RBL implementation 
    • User cannot delete the blocked address from RBL. Most of the RBL services communicate to providers only, but ignore queries of common users. 
    • Home user does not have the information which RBL service to trust.
