EMAIL SELF HELP

The BLACKLIST CHECK

This test will check a mail server IP address against 147 DNS based email blacklists. (Commonly called Realtime blacklist, DNSBL or RBL). If your mail server has been blacklisted, some email you send may not be delivered. Email blacklists are a common way of reducing spam. Here

DNSbl Information

Check to see if your IP addresses are listed with over 100 DNS based anti-spam databases! Will your mail server be blocked by DNSbl filters. Probably the most common way of detecting spam is rejecting mail that comes from mail servers known (or believed) to send spam. This is done by taking the IP address of the remote mail server, converting it to a domain name using the ip4r format (a.b.c.d becomes d.c.b.a.lookupzone.com), and seeing if that name exists. Here
