Jeff G. Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 SpamCop is getting rather annoying. I do not spam in any form yet I am getting returned emails based on a spamcop blacklist. You people really need to get your act together. There is no easy way to reach anyone for resolution. Why should I be annoyed by spamcop when I never spam? The most recent returned email is copied below. I started getting blacklist notices with returned email probably 2 months ago. Please do something about this and quit annoying innocent emailers trying to use the net. Based on my experience, Spamcop is invading my right to use the net without undue interference and leaving SpamCop with a real black eye that I will probably start getting pretty vocal about in other forums. Please clean up your act and correct whatever is causing the problems. I am an older (59) internet user and do not understand all the intricacies of how it works. I am including everything I see in the returned email. Please figure out what the problem is and either fix it or direct me to some one who can with clear instructions on who to contact and what steps need to be taken. A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error.

The condition is type 2 diabetes. We have higher numbers than the general population because of exposure to Agent Orange. I am sure you are aware of VA's presumed connection between type 2 diabetes and agent orange exposure. I was a DUSTOFF pilot in Vietnam and now I am a diagnosed type 2 diabetic. When I was diagnosed it almost killed me. I learned of far more effective ways to control diabetes than the VA told me about. Now I want to share what I learned with other vets. Here is how you can help. I have set up a directory on my website to manage reciprocal links. As webmasters, we both benefit from reciprocal links. Quality reciprocal links raise our page relevance with google and other search engines. My present google page relevance is 6/10, a high rating. Working together we may likely be able to improve the health and life of fellow vets. By spreading the word about how to select and use common foods from the local grocery store to improve health. All you need to do is go to www. nutricoach. net/links.html , click the button to the directory and enter your website in the directory, use the scri_pt provided and do a reciprocal link back to www. nutricoach. net . Working together, we may be able to reach our brother vets with information that can improve their health and lives. You may either use my suggested wording to go with the link or what ever you feel is appropriate.

If I am understanding what you are showing me I am going on the blacklist because some hacker is sending spam and making it look like it is from my server or is somehow hyjacking the server to send their spam. What steps can I take to prevent this and avoid getting blacklisted again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
