Just wondered whether it was worth considering adding Spamhaus DBL
http://www.spamhaus.org/news.lasso?article=655
to the list of blocklists that SpamCop users can choose from?
More info:

You might want to take another try at using the "Folders" view to empty your Held Mail folder.Yes, after 29 years with computers, I should know to try things more than once really :-)
Anyway I decided to report them all instead, and of course hit the 15,000 limit... oops.
-
(webmail menu bar item 'Folders')> use the dropdown to select "empty folder" which is the 3rd from the
> bottom -- do NOT select delete folder
I get an error message saying the "Held Mail" folder is already empty. When it has over 7,000 messages in it.
So it's back to reporting or deleting 100 at a time.
-
Now it's 10,000.What's the quickest way to delete more than 100 at a time? I don't have time to report all of them, and I guess it's not fair to spamcop.
I don't know. I wish I did.
I've had 10,000 too but then they stopped. Well paused, anyway! Hopefully that will be the lot.
-
I can't log in to reporting either.
On one occasion I did see a red error message about not being able to read a database row, or something like that, but I didn't record it and don't see it now.
-
Many thanks for your help and the explanation.
-
Yes, I think the time has come for that!
Well, I did email the deputies, but never got a reply (or, if I did, it must have got trapped as spam!).
-
Otherwise, follow the directions in the pinned item at the top for mailhost issues. This involved emailing the deputies.Yes, I think the time has come for that!
-
I wonder if I'll actually receive the probes this time...No, I never receive the probes. I have checked that I do receive "normal" email to the relevant address, and I have looked in the Yahoo spam folder.
-
When did you see the error message?On several occasions over the last 48 hours.
I can try it again right now...
and now I don't get the problem. I wonder if I'll actually receive the probes this time...
-
Thanks, yes, but I did already read that, and thought that with Yahoo being so popular I am probably not the first person to come across this issue, and that someone would pop up with a quick and easy answer!

When trying to register the mailhosts for my BT Internet email address I get these errors:
Connecting to mx1.bt.mail.yahoo.com.:smtpSend:smtpEnd: message transmission failed: 421 Message temporarily deferred - 4.16.51. Please refer to http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/defer/defer-06.html
Connecting to mx2.bt.mail.yahoo.com.:
smtpSend:smtpEnd: message transmission failed: 421 Message temporarily deferred - 4.16.51. Please refer to http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/defer/defer-06.html
I never get the probes. I've waited about 48 hours since the first time this happened. Back then, I only got the deferred message for one of the two servers. Now I get it for both.
I have searched the forums and can find plenty of mentions of Yahoo but with other problems which suggest that other people haven't encountered this difficulty.
Yes, I have referred to the URL suggested above, but there's nothing I as a user can do with the information provided. I can't reconfigure either SpamCop's or Yahoo's mail servers!
-
OK, will do. Thanks.

spam from smartways.net and reports would go to smartways.net
Abuse.net suggests abuse[at]smartways.net or postmaster[at]
If I knew how to find the upstream provider, I would...

Yes, the parser finished doing its stuff and gave me buttons to press at the end.
OK, I'll just ignore it in future!
Thanks.

OK, so I get the message:
Forgery detected, or mailhost configuration incomplete. Please verify source IP identified.
What do I do next? I mean, I've verified the source IP (which is to say, I've checked that my mailhost configuration is complete, and that the IP address does not belong to one of my mailservers - in fact, it's an ADSL port that's on one of the blackhole lists), so what do I do now?

Like several other people have reported, I configured mailhosts for several domains, received the magic emails, sent them back as requested, and then heard nothing more, and nothing appeared on my list of mailhosts beyond the basic spamcop servers.

It's back now (POP3 and webmail).

Within the last half hour or so, POP3 seems to have gone down.
Add Spamhaus DBL to list of blocklists?

Ah OK thanks - sorry, I did think it had probably been brought up before but couldn't find it (was using a tiny screen at the time).
