Count me in for the list of IPs.

Comcast and the CBL

Declude lists
---------------------------------------
Hi,
all-
For those who have been following the Comcast threads, I had
Comcast blocking me also. I met up with a couple of very helpful and courteous
people there. The tech support person who called me back was willing to learn
about the problem, and when I explained about IMail's - what do you call it? -
domain spoofing? - and that it was normal behavior, the fellow whitelisted me
permanently without further effort on my part.
This is the same problem
that eventually lists most, if not all, all IMail servers on the CBL - IMail
says it's mail.whatever_domain_is_trying_to_send.com, and they object to lots
of FQDNs from the same IP.
Because they treated me fair and square, and
handled the problem expeditiously, I am providing the contact method only to
those who experience the problem. I don't want to swamp a good contact with
calls and have him become unavailable.
I am thinking about is compiling
a list of IMail IPs to send him. If there is any interest in this, I'd be
happy to be the conduit. Don't post your IP's here, folks, bugt do let me know
if you're interested. If there's enough interest, I will contact him directly
and see whether Comcast is willing to get a large whitelist from me. If so, I
will create a web page where you can submit your IPs, and I will set up a
verification mechanism to assure that we don't allow spammers to post their
IPs on that page also.
Unfortunately, even if we do this for Comcast,
the CBL folks are categorically not interested in whitelisting IMail servers
preemptively. Therefore, you WILL lose traffic to those guys, as I
did.
