"Oracle Critical Patch Update" mistakenly identified as spam

Question

Hi,
I've subscribed to Oracle Security Alerts. Unfortunately, the last alert from yesterday didn't make it through my spam filter - apparently because it is badly formatted and because the sending mail server is listed in multiple blacklists. This is the detailed report of SpamAssassin:
X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.3.2 (2011-06-06) on <host>
X-Spam-Flag: YES

According to http://mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx?action=blacklist%3a141.146.5.62&run=toolpage , the sending MTA 141.146.5.62 (acsinet62.oracleeblast.com) is currently listed on the following blacklists:

It would be nice if these issues could be resolved.

Answer 1

Can you also tell me that from which version only
RMAN will be supported for backup? Not really. You can use your choice of backup methodologies, you are not tied to use RMAN for backups for any versions. As such, if you are using ASM, then yes, you can only use RMAN to backup.
better to Oracle10g.Can I ask why it is better to upgrade to Oracle 10g
and not 9.2.0.8?Because, starting with July, 2007 Oracle9i 9.2.0.8 goes into extended support. Extended support usually costs, but this time around, Oracle is extending free extended support for one year.
Hope this explains.
Thanks
