Delisting From Blacklists
First you need to know whether you are black listed
or not, avail our service- which searches Blacklists
and helps you in finding whether you are black listed
or not. If you are one whose IP has been black
listed, each Blacklist has its own procedure of getting
your IP removed from the Blacklist. In most cases
a hosting service is notified that potential spam
emails are being transmitted from their server. Blacklists
allow them few days to clean up and they later remove
accused IP from their list.
If you are listed
on MAPS RBL, you need to contact them by email - Email: rbl@mail-abuse.com
or phone (if necessary) Phone: +1.408.453.6277
x1, state the IP address you would like to have removed,
mention about the steps you are going to clean-up your
act.When contacted them with a remove request, an Investigator
(if possible, the original Investigator who listed the
IP in the MAPS RBL) will start a dialogue with you to
discuss what actions caused the listing, what has been
done to resolve these issues and what will be done to
prevent them from occurring in the future. If necessary,
the Investigator will ask about abuse handling policies,
acceptable use policies and any problems encountered
in the notification.
These discussions
will be documented and forwarded to MAPS Management
with a recommendation for the listing (removal,
probation, maintain listing). There is a probationary
period where the IP is removed from the list but
can be reactivated without a new nomination if
there are new occurrences. The probated listing
is monitored for an appropriate period of time
to ensure that there are no new instances of spamming
activity. If there is no new spamming activity
at the end of the probationary period, the listing
is removed.
If you are listed at
Relay stop List You need to ask them to remove
it or sites are automatically removed after 90 days.
Delisting from SBL advisory can be done by typing
your IP and getting yourself removed. If you blacklisted
at Spambag, you can request to be removed and,
this is how they consider your request a) If you are
Internet Provider, all of your spamming customers must
be shut down first. b) You must provide an explanation
as to why the previous complaints have been ignored.
c) You must give an explanation as to what exactly has
been put in place to make sure that any future complaints
will be promptly addressed. d) If you are Internet provider,
you must commit to shut down your spamming customers
within 24 hours of receiving clear evidence of their
customers spamming.
At Spamcop
if there is no fresh report of spam you will be
automatically removed, a maximum of 48 hours from
the most recent spam complaint. If people stop
reporting your site as a source of spam, it will
be de-listed after 48 hours. If you are listed
at Spamhaus Block List (SBL), if your IP
is listed on the SBL you will be given a link
to the SBL Record page which will explain why
the IP address is listed. At the bottom of every
SBL Record page you will find a "Removal Procedure"
with an email link to contact the SBL Team. xbl.spamhaus,
XBL removals are automated. You can remove an
IP address from the XBL by entering the IP address
in the "Lookup IP Address" box (above), and then
follow the link to the automatic removals request
form.
But remember
if you do not weed out your problematic area permanently,
you might end up being blacklisted again.
