I have a colleague who was listed as open relay by ORDB, spamcop, etc....
We have since closed his relay. Running Exchange server 2000. He was taken off the ORDB list but still gets reported by Spamcop. I receive daily notifications from spamcop that his IP is blacklisted. ORDB tested his IP and found them to no longer be open relay.
What is up with spamcop? Why is he still listed as open relay from spamcop and how do I get his address off their blacklist database?
That's just how Spamcop works -- you can't remove yourself. Which is good, because it makes sure that spammers can't de-list themselves. But, it's also bad, as it can create false positives.
If you look up the IP at http://www.spamcop.net , you can see why it is still listed. They may still be sending out spam, or it could be that enough spam had been sent before that it will take a while for it to get delisted.
