We all want to stop the SPAMMERS from filling our mailboxes and sucking up our bandwidth. What lengths should we go to, to stop the SPAM?
There is an alleged “service” by SpamHaus called the CBL list. http://cbl.abuseat.org/
In theory, a good idea. In practice, a big mistake.
Over the last few years, I have found my company on this blacklist and everytime it has been shown that there was NOT a single issue or offense on my part or coming from my network.
It generally takes a few weeks to get this resolved once and for all, and in the mean time, you get to play the game of requesting to get removed from the list AFTER your emails start bouncing back. Yes, it takes a few hours to get off the list.
What admin in their right mind would subscribe to a service that would deny possible business emails, costing them business? At least with a spam filter, it goes into a quarantine that can be searched and released, and even add to their own whitelist for mails that otherwise might get blocked.
Have you even gotten blocked by this “service”?
Do you use this “service”?
What legal recourse can be taken against alledged “services” like this that hurt your legitimate business?
