    Some fucker is using one of my domains for email spamming, all my sites removed...

    What a fucking low-life cheap stunt.

    Nice way to temporarily knock over your competition for a day or two.

    How can you stop fuckers doing this? You can't.

    I've been with this particular host for 3 years and without warning they just remove all my domains. You'd think I'd have their trust by now.

    I can move all the domains easily, but what's stopping this punk doing it again? It's obviously a competitor deliberately trying to knock me out of the serps.

    What a fucking Sunday. Asshole.

          Pick a host who will talk with you first before just pulling the trigger.

              Your host removed your domains because someone was spoofing your email? They will be out of customers within a week.

                      If they are using your email as a return address for their spam, get the source IP#, report them for identity theft and see if you can collect damages.

                      Good luck as they are usually somewhere in a remote part of Romania.....

                              If they hacked your mail server, you need to limit who can send mail from your IPs, domains, users, and block the rest. Put a hardware firewall on it too!

                                  That shit happens to me all the time... I'm tired of the thousands of "Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender" email that i receive from those spoofing my email accounts.

                                      I've never set up one email address on their server, that's the funny thing (if there is anything funny about this).

                                      I know it's easy to spoof someone's email address, but for the fucking host to just ditch the domains, that's really fucked.

                                      Sorry, torrets syndrome kicking in.

                                              lmfao d-null, I needed that.

                                              Transferred the best performing of 10 sites on that host away just now, 9 more to go.

                                              Cruddy way to finish a previously chilled Sunday.

                                                  I usually avoid criticizing other hosts, but that was pretty unprofessional of them.

                                                      Unprofessional is absolutely correct.

                                                      I signed up with them and another 4 hosts for a project 3 years ago, and this is the first problem I've had with them. To pull the plug on sites just like that is unbelievable.

                                                      I'm going to find some software out there to send out 10 million emails for "hosting services" with [email protected] as the reply address, see how they like it

                                                              Virtual hosting - had a quick project to set up and just went that route.

                                                              Good job I recently moved my critical sites to a dedicated server. $240 per month seems like a bargain to not have to put up with this kind of shite.

                                                                                                              Nice way to temporarily knock over your competition for a day or two.

                                                                                                              How can you stop fuckers doing this? You can't.

                                                                                                              I've been with this particular host for 3 years and without warning they just remove all my domains. You'd think I'd have their trust by now.

                                                                                                              I can move all the domains easily, but what's stopping this punk doing it again? It's obviously a competitor deliberately trying to knock me out of the serps.

                                                                                                              What a fucking Sunday. Asshole.

It lets other hosts know if the emails they are getting are actually from the source. I forget what the record was called (not MX).

                                                                                                                                          its a fake spoof that is easily done but any host who woould look at message headers can tell it isnt sent from the domain at hand....

                                                                                                                                          Unless off course the person got into the server and used the actuall domain in question to send emails then in this case email are coming from domain in question due to person hackin gthe box

                                                                                                                                          the orginal way is just to spoof email "FROM" like [email protected] so to naked eye it look slike its from the domain

                                                                                                                                          Host should look into it first rather than pulling plug
