What is the Composite Blocking List, who owns it and how exactly do
they develop their data?

And how do they prevent email from being sent and/or received?

I'm asking because I'm thinking of suing them.

What problem are you having?

Turns out that I was banned from sending emails for two weeks and
never knew it. And only to certian mail servers. I just found out
about it when I tried to send you an email. And I just received an
email from a group member that is two weeks old (after my ISP did a
little investigation).

Problem is that the IP that was banned isn't my IP. I have a
permanent IP that I pay through the nose for. When I called my
provider, I was told that the IP has never changed and that they don't
understand it either.

I want revenge. :)

Companies or organizations, or even individuals can use any blocking
service they wish and those services can block for whatever reason
they wish. In our business we deal with this all the time. Many of
them are just protection racquets, or just fronts for "reccomended"
hosting services that can "solve your problems". We have one customer
that uses a security monitor that constantly finds outdated **** to
blacklist for then follows up with a offer of their own provider.
Stupid internet customers are impressed with the self generated
"compliance" stickers they put on their sites. Either way, it is free
enterprise, you can not sue them for providing an "opinon" to paying
customers.
