Why Am I Blocked? Probable Causes
If your email has suddenly been blocked by the
SpamCop blocklist, it is probably because you share an
IP address with other email users and there is someone who:
- is using auto-responses that are replying to spam with forged spamtrap email addresses (such as Out-of-Office/Vacation notices, virus notifications, and 'bounces' created after accepting the email);
- has a computer with a virus that sends spam without the owner's knowledge;
- has a computer that has been compromised and spammers are remotely controlling it to transmit their spew;
- is sending unsolicited emails and your internet service provider is allowing it;
- or because, as in all systems, there may have been a mistake. (very rare)
The
SpamCop BL listing will expire automatically within a specific period of time based primarily on when the last spam came from that
IP address.
