I did no say it is not my problem, we have a 10 year history of being very pro-active for all abuse issues and have a dedicated staff person to deal with these issues. Slaming my mail admin because a dial up user has a virus is rude, period. Our dial up address space is listed, if people choose to block mail from that space.
Listed where? I don't see it jumping out anywhere on your web site or in any common/free DNSBL and the way your rDNS is setup isn't doing anyone any favors. 201.10.19.65.in-addr.arpa name = albq-du201.cybermesa.com. 201.16.19.65.in-addr.arpa name = sf-du201.cybermesa.com. The more primitive MTAs need you do be doing something like albq-201.du.cybermesa.com. Then they can be setup to reject du.cybermesa.com, which will reject .*\.du\.cybermesa\.com. And if you think their message was rude, just try to imagine the crap people send _to_ DNSBLs. It makes the message from the Swedes seem like they were kissing your @$$. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Lewis | I route Senior Network Engineer | therefore you are Atlantic Net | _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________
