How do I block my sites from appearing on your lists? I’m already spamming a lot with product and movie pitches and last thing I want is even more.

We aren’t going to let you do that as that would defeat the benefit.

So you're going to willingly spam me despite someone else over there saying I can block? Well now we definitely are going to have a problem.

This postbag account posting here above is spam. I am the maker and as I said you can just email us with a list of sites you want to exclude. Or, alternatively, by disallowing PostbagBot in your site's robots.txt.

Btw dawnerd, do you know how to flag a an account here? I tried and couldn't find it. Someone obviously registered with postbag handle to troll about Postbag as you've seen in the previous comment. I understand your frustration when you read such a comment. Rest assured that we would never refuse to exclude any site ever.

Ah okay, cause I was gonna say that'd be pretty rude. Robots is fine, I just didn't see what UA you were using anywhere.
