Some spam control software, on an isp mail server, will react after a certain amount of mail, in a certain time period, is sent. This will contact a blacklist server, and submit the sender to blacklisting. Blacklists are generally based on ips, can be a local pc ip, or a mail sender server ip (smtp). Once you are on the blacklist, you'll have to contact your isp, or at least your mail service provider, for a proper removal and instructions. Incoming mail servers filter content based on blacklist, it isn't rare to see a whole domain blacklisted by another isp. For instance, hispeed.ch adresses were blacklisted on aol.com for a long time: aol refused mails from the hispeed domain for several weeks. ------------------------- Relevant FAQs: [5240] ___________________ ->InI [small](Created by [internallink=1269]Emperor[/internallink] on 05-17-2004 17:38)[/small] Loading...
