Help to remove from Blocking List

Recommended Posts

I'm listed in Spamcop Blacklist and i've checked everything on my lan and servers.

No viruses, no spywares, not in open relay.

My IP is 213.223.154.30.

What can i do to be removed from your list ?

Your listing is caused by spamtrap hits alone. This suggests that you are sending delayed 'bounces' rather than rejecting with a 5xx at the time of the SMTP transaction. Sending new mail as non-delivery notification to the (always forged) from envelope is no longer acceptable. I get more of these than fresh spam. There is a faq here that covers this subject, how did you manage to miss it?

De-listing, like listing is entirely automatic once the abuse stops.

I'm sorry to report that the server is sending ordinary spam to our spamtraps. We know for a fact that our trap servers accurately record the source IP when they get mail. A spamtrap is an unused address whose sole reason for existence is to see if people will send unsolicited mail to it. We guard our traps like gold for fear of revealing the email addresses, which is why we don't send any reports about the spam they get, so I'm afraid there aren't many details I can share with you.

All I can say is that there appears to be a compromised machine somewhere on your LAN. There is nothing in the headers that shows a source inside.

The SpamCop Admin can see the actual email and doesn't have to guess if the listing is caused by misdirected bounces or a trojan the way the other two posters did. They guessed misdirected bounces because you said you had looked for viruses.

As he said, he can't give you the email to look at because spam traps are email addresses that are never used for email and therefore, don't send email reports as well as the fact that spammers would use them, if they could, to avoid being listed.

One of the things that other admins have discovered is that although there is no evidence of a compromised machine in their outgoing email logs, sometimes they have found suspicious activity by looking in their firewall logs. Good Luck in finding the compromised machine!
