Re: Vultr has all blacklisted IP's for email
HI, I have two server running with Vultr, one in Sydney and one in Tokyo.

Re: Vultr has all blacklisted IP's for email
I'll say this, man. I really don't like Vultr. I just have a 150.00 credit to burn with them. Once that's done, I'll be making other arrangements. My guess is you really did nothing wrong and Vultr's sys admins are just lame.

(exaggeration included on purpose). As you can see below, I guess it is all my fault. I'm just going to put the DNS records back to where they were before. What's the website for OpenBSD Amsterdam? Looks like I may just have to move my server from the USA to the not USA. Why is such a simple thing as a server so hard to get??? Fun Fun Fun entered below: --- Information about 108.61.242.230 Below is the information we have on record about 108.61.242.230 Standards Compliance Does IP Address resolve to a reverse hostname... Passed! Does IP Address comply with reverse hostname naming convention... Passed! List Status RATS-Dyna - On the list. Worst Offender Alert. RATS-NoPtr - Not on the list. RATS-Spam - Not on the list. RATS-Auth - Not on the list. Alert: Your IP is part of a network listed as a Worst Offender This is a Worst Offender Alert and this means that not only this IP address, but the whole class 'C' is also on the indicated SpamRats List. Usually this means the whole range has the same issue of naming conventions or no reverse DNS AND that many IP's from this Class C have been used in Spam Attacks, Dictionary attacks or other forms of attacks, as detected by Mail Servers in the Data Collection Grid. You will NOT be able to use the removal form to remove your IP Addresses. If you have recently been assigned the IP Addresses, or have changed what these IP Addresses are used for, you can use the contact form and ask for a reclassification, but you will have to provide full disclosure, including whois for the ip addresses, your affiliation with the company that owns them, and a description of what the IP's were previously used for, and what they will be used for, in order for a Spam Auditor to consider reclassification. Remember, the majority of the IP's in this space WERE detected as being involved in some form of attack or abusive behaviour, so you had better have a good reason to ask for removal, and you need to own or control the IP addresses, as evidenced by ARIN whois. - 2nd IP is blacklisted on 7 lists. I'm sure they can quickly fix this too! Chris -- You received this mail because you are subscribed to misc@opensmtpd.org To unsubscribe, send a mail to: misc+unsubscr...@opensmtpd.org

Baremetal for them is new and maybe they haven't worked out the bugs and procedures for that yet? If that's the case, any suggestions on a good way to word the conversation?

That did not happen, unfortunately. They now also offer one model of bare metal, which is not a VM. I specifically need a single dedicated server for what I am doing. The work I'm doing is all situated inside of the USA, so something locally oriented is a better choice for me. My email ports are open, as I can send mail back and forth with my other server.

Re: Vultr has all blacklisted IP's for email
I don't have any issue either. One thing you could do is use a mail relay service like Mailjet. I do this because they offer dkim and spf for free.
