This certainly sounds like a bug that needs to be addressed by Cobalt. Other
ISPs that offer their customers a "block" feature where you simply add an
IP, domain, email address to the form check to see if it's already listed.
e.g., "The name sexyfun.net is already blocked."
There is nothing I've seen in the documentation saying you should check to
see if something is already listed before attempting to add it. That, and
the fact the textarea is so tiny making scrolling through it difficult. A
link to simply view a .txt or .dat file of the listed addresses would be
much easier to deal with.
