Thanks Craig. I have on my budget an upgrade for our mail server - not sure yet whether I'm sticking with Imail or going to SM. Just sucks that it is suddenly happening and I probably need to do it sooner rather than later. I don't know anything about Alligate and don't know whether that should be in my plan regardless of what I upgrade to. So I don't know if I should waste time putting that in as a work around for now.

Therefore I had the choice (or rather the ultimatum from CBL) to either upgrade Imail or use a smtp gateway. So I now use Alligate as an smtp server. It funny...not....that they "used" to whitelist imail users, now they dont, they just give you the ultimatum even when you can prove that your server is legit and well protected. The guys at CBL have their heads up their....well you can imagine it.

I just got a note from CBL that says that they are no longer automatically removing Imail machines, as there is a fix. Not sure if my older version (8.2x) is part of that fix or what. Anyway, their message said "The CBL attempts to detect compromised machines in a number of ways based upon the email that the CBL's mail servers receive. During this it tries distinguish whether the connections represent real mail servers by ensuring that each connection is claiming a plausible machine name for itself (via SMTP HELO), and not listing any IP that corresponds to a real mail server (or several mail servers if the IP address is a NAT firewall with multiple mail servers behind it). 8.7.193.82 was found to be using several different EHLO/HELO names during multiple connections on or about: 2009:02:12 ~21:30 UTC+/- 15 minutes (approximately 19 hours ago). The names seen included: enwcommunity.com, hcaa.com, mail.nnepa.com, p01c11m022.mxlogic.net, p01c11m096.mxlogic.net, p01c11m102.mxlogic.net, p01c11m107.mxlogic.net, p01c12m013.mxlogic.net, p01c12m062.mxlogic.net " The first two are legitimate virtual domains on our server, the third is our server. But I have no idea where the mxlogic.net names are from?

Certainly, CBL is at fault and by now they should have at least taken up SPF record checking to weed out false positives. I just checked your SPF record and it is valid, so this would have helped you.

I sent them an email directly (which is what they said to do if you are running Imail) and it appears that they have us removed already. Not sure why/how we got added, if it has anything to do with Imail (as they suggest) or what. I'm running several misc. scans on our server to be sure we don't have a problem. Any other suggestions of how/why, or what to check are always appreciated!

I went through the steps to request removal. Is there anything else I should do? I'm really not sure how we got on it anyway. Does anyone know how long it takes? I've got several people hollering at me because anything they send out is being rejected as spam. Todd --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
