</div>And you are certain that you and any email gateway are not spamming?<br>
<br>
I have a domain that was blocked by <a href="http://bellsouth.net" target="_blank">bellsouth.net</a> - cannot send any email there<br>
and can't get off their list. Not blocked sending anywhere else that I know. No<br>
gateway server involved. The sad thing is that THEY started it. A friend's<br>
account got hacked and spammed me. I replied to let him know (attaching the<br>
original message). From that point, my domain has been blocked. That was about<br>
2 yrs ago.<br>
<br>
Since then I've implemented dynamic spam blocking services - from time to time<br>
yahoo and gmail get caught spamming, so that specific remote server is blocked.<br>
1and1 gateway email servers seem to be constantly blocked too - appears they<br>
allow emails that appear to be spam way to much from their clients.<br>
<br>
My personal domain is blocked by some ISPs and countries for web traffic only.<br>
Don't know why. I've been places where I couldn't get to my website, but didn't<br>
have any issue connecting via SSH using the domainname or sending/receiving<br>
emails. Tried http using the IP too - blocked. Thailand was the last country<br>
that happened, but from 3 other countries in the region, nothing was blocked.<br>
Friends in Europe and the middle east have been blocked too. Don't know why. I<br>
don't think there is any R-rated content on the website.<br>
<br>
Ideas?<br>
