* This is the vopmailbeta mailing list *


Yes I had a problem with a company blocking my mail server. They sent me 
logs where it showed my ip address as the originating mail server. FROM 
fields having earthlink.com, hotmail.com, etc... None that I host.
Has to be a user of mine.
Now I can't find who did it. Their logs are dated July and I don't keep logs 
that long and I don't have logging turned on.
How to I deal with this? I want to block this kind of behaviour from the 
source.
