At 7:44 PM +0100 12/11/02, Thomas Tempelmann imposed structure on a
stream of electrons, yielding:
Someone informed me that when I wrote him, his mail server flagged my msg
as Spam:
X-Filtre: bloqu� 217.232.165.179 (4) [via OSIRUSOFT -- 127.0.0.3]
What I do not understand is this: The above IP addr is the one from where
I am connected to the Internet (German dial-up DSL), and from where I
did send my mail using Claris Emailer. But I did send this mail to
my mail server (SIMS), which is at mail.tempel.org (62.138.52.205).
And that server is not blacklisted at all.
So, why did I appear blacklisted to this person then? Shouldn't a
backlist checker look at the IP addr of the SMTP server where it
receives the mail from (that would be my SIMS at mail.tempel.org),
instead of from where I created it?
Is he just using some lame software, perhaps?
Yes.
There are fools out there using software that scans Received lines
and applying dialup lists to them. 127.0.0.3 is the Osirusoft dialup
response.
