I am using a mail server that is set up on a DSL connection. I don't have a static IP and am using DNS Update program with ZoneEdit.com to set up MX records. Email sent from this server is blocked by Spamcop sometimes and not others. Can anyone help?

This one got through:

Easy - Sometimes you get an IP address that has been blocked by SpamCop for spamming. The two emails you showed were sent from two different IP addresses, one on the SCBL, the other one not.

SC does not block on your domain, your email address, or anything other than the sending IP address. I would suggest that you use your ISP's SMTP server to send mail and use the mailserver as a receive only machine.

Thanks. I guess I don't understand the IP thing exactly. Isn't SpamCop checking the source IP which is the same in both?

X-SOURCE-IP: [68.251.33.154]

No the list works from the oldest most reliable and confirmable IP address. The X-Source value isn't reliable - anyone could create that and add it to their headers.

The other reference to your IP is prior to the sending IP address so, again, not reliable.

As others have said, use your ISP's SMTP server to send your outbound mail.

Thanks, but I am using Mac OS X server and though I can relay SMTP through another server, SBC won't accept it because it requires authentication.

http://www.spamcop.net/w3m?action=checkblo...216.173.237.167

216.173.237.167 listed in bl.spamcop.net (127.0.0.2)

If there are no reports of ongoing objectionable email from this system it will be delisted automatically in approximately 12 hours.

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)

What isn't known from 'here' is when it got listed .. as compared to when you sent the e-mails
