They made me jump through hoops (such as signing up for an account there), only to say that in some cases they simply won't remove IPs, even if they do not meet their listing criteria.

I find that only a small percentage of mailservers block based on any of the SORBS spam databases. For those that do, I forward the bounce message (usually with my originally response to them removed, so they can't just simply forget about it), and a note about how they need better anti-spam software (which if they are blocking *just* based on a SORBS test is true). -Scott To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/ To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
