Why Block Mail-archive.com?

[Sabahattin Gucukoglu <mail () sabahattin-gucukoglu com>]

What have mail-archive.com done to you that you must block them in DNS, by setting up an empty authority zone for it?

Sabahattin-Gucukoglus-MacBook-Air:~ sgucukoglu$ host -v -t a www.mail-archive.com.
Trying "www.mail-archive.com"

Yes, using another DNS server works, only it turns out there's no UI on the iPhone to change the DNS servers used while 
on 3G.  Bloody thing.

Cheers,
