Blacklisted!!!!

Recommended Posts

trying to diagnose why i have been blacklisted...

65.242.147.66 listed in bl.spamcop.net (127.0.0.2)

Causes of listing

System has sent mail to SpamCop spam traps in the past week (spam traps are secret, no reports or evidence are provided by SpamCop)

Additional potential problems

(these factors do not directly result in spamcop listing)

DNS error: 65.242.147.66 is host66.axiomlegal.com but host66.axiomlegal.com has no DNS information

Listing History

In the past 551.8 days, it has been listed 2 times for a total of 42 hours

since this message i have put up a reverse lookup on the IP address of our firewall. Need to get this removed asap so our company can email other clients using spamcop...

?

help?

A look at Senderbase shows that your email volume has gone up 574% since yesterday and is up 513% compared to the last 30 days. A quick check of OpenRBL shows that you're getting picked up by more blocklists - 5 so far. Your system has been badly compromised and needs to be patched or unplugged before you're in every blocklist out there. What kind of mail server are you running? If you'll post the software and version number that you're running there will certainly be someone along soon who can tell you what the problem is likely to be. In the meantime, be sure to browse the pinned "Why Am I Blocked? item.

Please read the "Why Am I Blocked? FAQ". It does ask you to read it before posting.

This part:

the SMTP/Auth exploit of an Exchange server is in progress, see these links:

Obtain Mandrake 10 or latest SuSE, Debian etc.

Pop in  CD tray

Reboot

When it asks Delete all Windows Partitions? answer 'Y'

:D

A bit extreme I would say.

I guess that you are a 100% anti Microsoft guy.

Maybe his wording is a bit extreme, but even Microsoft admits their OSes should not be placed directly on the internet without a firewall of some kind. That should speak volumes.

No, use it every day, too much good softwae written for it to ignore! See www.adobe.com. I dual-boot XP and Mandrake 10.

What I am 'anti' is installing a default guest account and by default switching on SMTP/AUTH. Personally I would never connect my machine running windows to the internet without a HARDWARE firewall. Those two defaults are probably responsible for much if not most of the world's spam from compromised machines. You only need look at recent threads in this forum. And don't get me started on Outlook Express!

Extreme? note the smiley, just tongue-in-cheek!
