false positives?

when quering the database

http://api.stopforumspam.org/api?username=sender&ip=205.234.47.60&email=l1836851@mvrht.com&f=xmldom

it returns 255 frequency on the email however when I use the search on here and input the email address it returns zero finds so not sure what is going on.

Re: false positives?

Hi RMcGirr83
This one has been endlessly asked & replied to.

The site administrator (pedigree) compiles Currently listed "bad domains" and networks (in our opinion) and adds them to the site DB as a known bad domain, etc.. These are the ones that return 255 on API query.

I agree that this site's search should give some kind of feedback on that fact with a link to an FAQ entry. If only we could be full-time employed at a decent salary... You are welcome to make a substantial donation!
