Apparently I'm spamming myself


Recommended Posts

This is what I found when I logged into my blog to clean out the trackback spam.

My site's IP -- 63.247.142.74 -- is not currently listed in the SCBL according to the query page, but my blog software seems to think it is listed. Any suggestions on what I should do next to figure out why I was blacklisted?

The short answer is that you weren't. There are no recent reports, no history of listing, nothing to suggest that that IP has EVER been on the SCBL. The error message is just plain wrong: for one thing no DOMAIN has ever appeared on the SpamCop list - it doesn't 'do' domains. The error message is just plain malformed. Personally I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

Figure out who/where the alleged "spam filters" are, who set the configuration ... get it changed to tell the truth .... As Derek stated, the SpamCopDNSBL only does IP Addresses.

Agreed that the information is plain wrong. I checked with a number of dnsbl lookup tools and couldn't find any listings.
