To whom it may concern. I need your help. I run a legitimate business ( 27 years ) of Search and Placement in the electronic industry. As you can see for the text below I am unable to contact people about the jobs that they want to interview for. How do I get unlisted from the Spamassassin black list? Every letter I send out is an individual letter not a spam or junk mail. I view resumes on Hot Jobs. I pay for this service. People post their resumes so that a recruiter like myself will contact them with the hope of finding work. By being blocked from contacting that person causes Spamassassin to harm both of us. In addition, several clients have not been able to receive emails from me. These clients are fortune 500 manufactures that have written agreements with our firm to arrange legitimate interviews for valid jobs. Can you help me get delisted ? Sincerely.

Re: Fw: failure notice / spaassassin.apache.org
It looks like you are listed in spamcop and apparently Comcast is either using spamcop or they have their own list that is blocking you. You really need to contact comcast about this, not the spamassassin list. This list has nothing to do with your problem. See: http://spamcop.net/w3m?action=checkblockip=66.235.211.53 and http://www.comcast.net/help/faq/index.jsp?faq=SecurityMail_Policy18628 Anyone sending large amounts of mail on the Internet these days really needs to understand these issues (that means you).

Re: Fw: failure notice / spaassassin.apache.org
Comcast has their own blacklist, I do not know how they arrive at what is spam and what is not, in my experience, it is questionable. Your hosting company is the one that is blacklisted. This can be effecting many or just effecting you, it depends on whether they assign individual ip number to each web host or do naming. In the event of naming, it can effect everyone they host for. Your hosting company (the one that is actually responsible for the net block you are assigned will have to resolve this with comcast), alternatively you can probably request it's removal at the following url, there should be instructions at the URL. http://www.comcast.net/help/faq/index.jsp?faq=SecurityMail_Policy18626 use this IP '66.235.211.53 ' which is what your host gives your website. If you do a search on 'blacklist' and comcast, you will get pages full of their blacklisting anomalies. Also, just as a preventative, I do not know if you use any mass mailers advertising, but if you do, this can cause blacklisting. If you do the best way to avoid blacklisting if you do this is to use as server side mailing list with subscribe/unsubscribe options. The spam situation from an ISP standpoint is getting ever worse to keep its subscriber's email flowing. AOL is similar, they decide which mail is spam by the number of times it's customer's put the same sources of email in their spam folder, if it appears at about a rate of 5%, it's blacklist time. What does this mean, it means whoever you are sending email to, even though in your eyes, it may be legitimate, if they decide they don't want to receive it, they can hit the AOL spam button and they have officially dubbed your email spam and the counter starts. This is where the serverside email lists help but do not eliminate this, depends if the receiver is will to click on the url for your unsubscribe message. Another (though less liked by most), is to only send email that is text, i.e. no images, no html. This will maximize the probably that your mail won't be interpeted as spam. Hope this helps.
