It seems a company called Spamhaus has labeled our hosting service as supporting spammers.

This causes other companies to block our emails, stating that Isprime is supporting spammers.

Which leads to our emails getting blocked. Emails that confirm people signing up to us, getting order confirmations, FTP emails and our Newsletters.

So if anyone has signed up and has a problem getting access to our sites please inform me here.

Spamhaus have just set themselves up as judge, jury and executioner on this one and I think like the power the have. Unfortunately too many hosting services take them at their word. Not that they are prepared to back their word with a statement that might get them into court for making the wrong decision, they are very careful about that one. :finger:

Spamhaus can go fuck themselves. I've been in their list as well and I didn't do anything.

It seems they decide you are spamming or supporting them and that's it.

As I said Judge, jury and executioner.

Isprime tell me they sloved it but Spamhaus still say they have not, who to believe?

Spamhaus, spoars, spews (the worst) and all the other anti asshole places need to be shot. O'm not a fan of spam, but these places are wacked out and list hosts entire ip blocks just for the hell of it.
