Get a /24??? I know Qwest and AT&T you must prove that you are using 80% of the addresses or they will take the /24 away! They don't care if you move or not ... now a days most companies only need 8 or fewer addresses to handle all their needs anyway.

Yep. Most organizations of any size get at least a /24 from their provider. So how big is your netblock? Do you have a /24 (255 addresses / 252 usable) ? If so, it seems you have problem in your system. If not, as it says, take this up with your provider. It seems they are not doing a good job of policing their users.. If you can't get your own /24 from your provider, threaten to move. You might have to renumber your network, but your provider will probably not want to lose you. -Dave Doherty Skywaves, Inc. 508-425-7176 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joel Lichtenberger" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, December 12, 2006 6:21 PM Subject: [IMail Forum] Blocked by Brightmail > Our emails have recently been blocked by optonline.net.
