Dear SPAM gurus,
I am at my tethers end because my business is heavily suffering from two aspects of SPAM. The incoming SPAM I suffer is a problem for another forum, it is the blacklisting of my outgoing email that is running my business into the ground as none of my suppliers (email and web hosting provider, ISP and domain host) seem to be doing enough to get this problem resolved and I rely heavily on email to communicate and collaborate with my partners and customers on projects my company carries out.
When sending email to my biggest supplier, Dell, I get the following message/error (receive very similar bounces from other large companies that I send email to that use SPAMCOP or SENDERBASE for SPAM blocking) --PLEASE NOTE SENSITIVE INFORMATION IS REPLACED WITH "REMOVED":
This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

I've gone through thoroughly SPAMCOP and senderbase Web site FAQ's and followed procedure for blacklist dispute. I have got nothing back from anyone yet. Meanwhile my business projects are grinding to a hault causing serious loss of income. This is so detrimental to my business if I don't get sorted within the next few days I will be forced to take some kind of action like transfer my email and business collaboration and CRM systems over to new email/domain/IP which could cost so much and cause such disruption it could likely sink my business.
If any can help with this potentially 'business destroying' situation you could be our sole saviour and we would be for ever greatful
Full Version: No longer blackisted, but still can't send emails
212.67.202.156 is spammy. It has sent spam to spamtraps, and has had messages reported by receivers. It looks like those reports would have gone to abuse[at]webfusion.co.uk. I would start by talking to them and finding out why you never saw these reports.
http://www.spamcop.net/w3m?action=checkblo...=212.67.202.156
The entire 212.67.202.* block looks pretty bad, I see at least 20 different hosts listed on the SCBL. I would suggest that if email is that important to your company, you either find an email provider that takes care of their spam problems and can provide you reliable email service, or get a non-shared mail server.
194.128.197.132 does not appear to be currently listed on the SCBL
http://www.spamcop.net/w3m?action=checkblo...194.128.197.132
and I don't see any abuse reports on the google groups
http://groups.google.com/groups?scoring=d&...2+group:*abuse*
Perhaps a paid member could pull a listing history on that IP and see if there are any reports recently. It could be that xko.co.uk is misreporting their rejection reason, which is a lot more common than one might expect.

I heartily concur. Take your business elsewhere. PlusNet is a very good UK host.

I have done, and there is none, Senderbase shows no activity at all.

This is strange to me. Are you sure this is the only received line?
If it is the mail was sent from spc2-hers2-5-0-cust227.asfd.broadband.ntl.com ([82.0.46.228] helo=leedell)
this is a dynamic IP that should not be running a mail server if they want their mail delivered. Most admins will not accept mail from a dynamic IP and it is listed in a few dynamic lists.
next the Helo is bogus as it should be s FQDN.
Also if we check sightings for the same 'helo' in other spam runs we find
http://groups.google.com/group/news.admin....rt=0&scoring=d&
What software was used to send this test?
I might be wrong but I don't think we have enough information here.

I am stunned by the rapid professional repsonse from you all. I'm not even a customer.
Well I feel like I have enough information to make some serious decisions to get out of this frustrating situation.
Many many thanks for this useful help

Turns out that there are several other people that have complained about being black listed to WebFusion (my web and email host) and they say they can't do anything about it. I have already started to plan migrating off of their (black listed) systems to someone who I considered before, www.zen.co.uk
Thanks again to everyone for all the help

Yeah, unfortunately the blacklisted ISP who "can't" (translation: Its too much trouble to actually provide the services that our customers pay for) do anything about being blacklisted is becoming more and more common.
Fortunately, there are still a lot of hosts out there that do maintain their systems as they should, and if they encounter a blacklist or other problem, they take the necessary actions to fix it.
A google search of the abuse groups for any ISP you are thinking about using is usually a good place to start, as is a senderbase lookup of their mail servers. That will tell you a lot about whether they just let their mail servers run and spew who knows what, or whether they actually hold their customers to the TOS.

...Thank you for the kind words. The fact that you are not a customer and found help here is one of the advantages of a "peer" forum like this one -- we don't care that you're not a customer of SpamCop (many of us are not, either, although we do make use of some of its services ... for free!) but we do care that you had a question about how the SpamCop blacklist is used.QUOTE(leeasteadman @ Mar 1 2006, 02:38 PM)

You're welcome. However, please be sure to question their competence regarding http://groups.google.com/group/uk.telecom....67658772b2a741a and possibly other incidents before you sign on the dotted line.
