I was wondering about "const" for case 1, also. I think there is some
precedent for using "const" with this meaning in other programming
languages. "volatile" for case 3 seems reasonable.

Sorry about that. I like 510sg's dnsbl list precisely because it's
aggressive, but sometimes it's too aggressive. I can whitelist you
if you have a stable IP address ... is 24.147.138.78 a permanently
assigned address, or not?
