And has it? I was blocked NOT because I bouced viruses, NOT because I used
callouts and NOT because I spew spam (which I haven't) but only because
they - as many other similar thoughtless RBL folks - have blocked a whole
IP range where I happened to have my IP. Now, why am I being held
responsible for what other clients of the national ISP are doing?
I have already contacted my ISP to act on my behalf but frankly what
chances do I stand of them doing anything if you take into account that
this is the largest national provider?
My mail server is properly configured.
I have never sent a single spam message.
I have a revdns.
I do not use callouts.
I etc., etc.
