[IMail Forum] OT RBL gets www.Insight.com

[Chris Hunt]

For the last two days I've been trying to access www.insight.com without 
luck.  Thinking it was a problem at my end I got the following email from 
my ISP.  Seems list a poorly controlled list server got them blacklisted.

=========

Their IP # has been blocked on the backbone due to abuse (probably SPAM) -
I'll get word to them so they know about this - they're on the RBL
(realtime blackhole list) so our mail servers won't accept mail from them,
and many backbone carriers won't carry their IP traffic either.

Sounds like they've been SPAMming - we can't control the block - they're
listed on the RBL - see http://mail.abuse.net/rbl for more info - the RBL
is used by ISPs to limit incoming SPAM (we won't accept mail from their
servers) and by many backbone operators, who choose to limit transit as
well to RBL-listed sites.
