Working with Spamhaus

Wed Jul 29 17:37:26 UTC 2015

I see that point - however, spamhaus has become a haus-hold word these
days and everyone runs into these issues....its not malware or bots we
block from a network level blackhole. Yet it is basic network operations
these days to have to deal with someone complaining about their hacked
mail server is now fixed yet they cant get mail. We usually tell them the
quickest way is to address spamhaus to get it removed and in parallel also
move the mail server to a new IP and change the dns and rDNS to the new
one. It gets us out of having to help with these RBL issues.

When an RBL sends a notice we jump on it and get it to the
customer...however, they usually dont send us or the customer anything.

Thank You
