Why does APEWS have two levels of listings? What is Level 1?
21: APEWS publishes two lists. Level 1 lists domains only. Domains owned by spammers or spam supporters and also by cart00neys trying to sue blocklist operators will get listed. We don’t even try and educate these types as any past attempts at education have failed. If a known spammer buys a new domain but hasn’t started spamming from it yet, it is still eligible to be listed here. blocking a domain whose owners use human shileds will result in collareal damage, which some users might not want. Also note that Use of L1 might reject messages that use of L2 does not; maximum blocking requires the use of both. This is a significant difference from SPEWS, where the relationship was hierarchical.
