Unsubscribe Blacklist (UBL) Resources

What is the UBL?

The Unsubscribe Blacklist (UBL) is a real-time blacklist of IP addresses which
are sending email to names harvested from suppression files.

About the UBL

Utilizing the world’s largest unsubscribe intelligence database, LashBack’s
Unsubscribe Blacklist (UBL) empowers your organization to identify and block
the very worst unsubscribe abusers; those that send email to addresses which
have been harvested from suppression lists.

LashBack has been monitoring sender unsubscribe compliance since 2003. During
this period, LashBack has compiled sender unsubscribe compliance failure in
four primary categories:

1. Which senders fail to provide a working unsubscribe mechanism
2. Which senders do not honor unsubscribe requests within 10 business days
3. Which senders allow consumers unsubscribe request to be abused (i.e., shared
with other parties to send more spam)
4. Which senders are taking suppression lists from other organizations and
sending email to these lists

LashBack’s UBL only lists the IP addresses of senders who are using email
addresses harvested from suppression lists (point 4). If you would like
additional “premium” reputation data contact a LashBack representative
directly.

This free service is intended to provide all receivers and reputation providers
a baseline of data to help block the sender’s with the worst reputations. All
IP addresses listed on in our service are being continually monitored and the
list is updated hourly.

It appears to have a lot of FP's with gmail and aol addresses, at least based
on my mail stream.
