why the HELL would my ip address be listed in the spamhaus database? is someone fucking with me?

i'm gonna go about the process of removing my IP address, but i'd like to find the original complaint. don't see anything in the FAQ

are you relaying off of your home broadband connection?

they have the majority of all subnets that ISPs have allocated for dhcp leases blacklisted if i recall correctly

not relaying, but i do my personal email through a tunnel to my home pc, and thats the address that's blacklisted. but i'm not about to send my personal traffic through companyNet.

it looks like it is something like that. almost like i have to use the RR SMTP server to send mail from home, and not have a RR IP come up in a gmail header

roadrunner is blocked by ncMail.net? that seems like a big deal, or am i missing something?

what if i wanna mail my senator!!11

nah it's just if the relay originates from your IP

they're cool if you want to relay through another smtp server (theirs/gmail/etc)

but if you're running a smtp server off of your broadband connection and sending through that, they don't like that too much, hence the blacklist
