Consider my Fortune 100 email address has been blocked before and we
couldn't do anything about it due to it being a normal error, I think
you'll be in the same boat.

Thank you for a very informative post. I do have a static IP which
made the situation weirder as the reported IP that I was supposedly
posting from didn't even exist.

As to suing, I'm not going to sue anybody for something like this -
sometimes the characters here take things too seriously and it's much
too easy to poke them when they get on their high horse. :)

In any case, thanks again - very interesting information.

Static is not the same as hidden, as you've found out.

Oh, I'm stealthed and firewalled up the wazoo.

ALthough I suppose it could be cound with a blanket type of IP search.- Hide quoted text -

Another way to get listed is to have a virus sending out emails. Like
I said, autoresponders "fighting" with a spam producing ip is way up
there too. We have one this morning. He is screaming that Vor****n
told him it was our problem as we run a pop server for the guy. But it
is their IP, and we have nothing to do with it. I told him next time V
tells him it is our problem, he should get the guys name as I would
like to know who is tossing bs around about our company. They do not
deal with the problem, they just wait it out and blame it on someone
down the line.

Our play system is pretty secure. A while back we had a security
consultant/friend we trust, who works for a huge company, to hack into
our business systems. We provided him with some info and he went at
it. After a few days he called us and told us he could not ever get to
square one with any or our systems. Could not even see them past the
ip. He was somewhat embarrassed as he had warned us he would know what
color socks we were wearing in the office when he was done;)

Anyway, not bad website, interesting, but I already knew most of
this ;)

Hang onto that web site. Gibson's Spinrite software is about the best there
is for diagnosing hard disk issues.
