This came to my attention as i signed up for OCcash the other day. I noticed they hadn't approved my account, so I reviewed the process and discovered I had signed up using my gmail account, which they claim they will deny out of hand. So I signed up again using one of my paysite domains and then sent them an email to let them know why I signed up twice.

The email bounced with this message:

b.barracudacentral.org;
http://www.barracudanetworks.com/rep...38.107.220.152

I went through the "unblock" process at barracuda but they mentioned in there that my IP ad been reported for spamming in the last 30 days and that just doesn't ring any bells at all unless there is something going on that I am not aware of.
I was not concerned that it was us, TBH.

The reason I asked is because there are a ton of RBLs out there, but few that mean anything. Personally, I have never heard of Barracuda, so I can't speak for their practices, but there are several that will never release you without some kind of payoff.


*edit, just checked and got The ip address 38.107.220.152 is not currently listed as "poor" on the Barracuda Reputation System.
