I'll have to do some research and get back to you on that one. No, it is not your IP address. Even if it was, you said you are not running your own SMPT server so there is no way you could send e-mail directly without going through the BellSouth SMPT servers.
So...there's no reason for me to find it. Just call BellSouth and see what they have to say? Any ideas as to which tack they'll take? E.g., there's nothing they can do about it. Offer to change my IP to another, with no guarantee that it won't have similar problems? The IP is for one of Bellsouth's servers. If you go to www.dnsstuff.com
and do a Reverse DNS Lookup you will see it is the IP address for imf18aec.mail.bellsouth.net host, and if you enter the IP in the Spam database lookup and scroll the results page down you will see (highlighted in red) that the IP (or host) is blacklisted by SORBS. This this is the reason your email is being rejected. You should talk to Bellsouth.
Per what I said above, what do you think they'll say? Or offer to do? Is there nothing to be gained by contacting SORBS, et al? Again, thanks for the help! -- Joe ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.85.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
