Re: [cobalt-users] Open Relay problem



I think its not a problem with your server - we had the same on one of our servers and got this response from Freeserve:

"
There appears to be a fault with Maps, one of the major blacklists for
email abuse. They appear to be blacklisting everyone without verification.
The problem is being investigated. In the mean time our mailcore has
switched the blacklist ability off.

Hope that helps...

I run a mail list on one of the domains (majordomo) AOL apparently seem to
think it has been used to spam people through open relay or some such
thing. Another ISP - freeserve has just blocked me without warning too.

Can anyone tell me how to close the open part of this relay please. cobalt

Thanks in advance,
