No, I am using the email address that you see here. The CBL list shows the IP address of the domain name registrar's relay host and says that my domain name is not on the list.<br>
<br>
Email for their customers (the domain name registrar) goes through their relay, some of which is thought to be spam and so it ends up on a list at spamhaus. Organizations have email servers setup to consult spamhaus and automatically reject email from either domain names or ip addresses that are on the list. The domain name registrar is not one of these organizations, so they relay spam and their host ends up on the list.<br>
<br>
So, people send me email and get back an email from some company that uses spamhaus saying that email can not be relayed because the host is a known spammer. People sending the email interpret this as either cognitive dissonance resulting in my having lost communication, or they think that I am a spammer.<br>

If you're using like an @<a href="http://comcast.net" target="_blank">comcast.net</a> email address, that might be getting<br>
rendered as spam. Perhaps your account was used previously by a malicious<br>
attacker and bad emails have been sent in the past from your address, which<br>
has resulted in it becoming blocked.<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
If this is too far off topic, I apologize. I have email forwarded to my<br>
ISP by my domain name registrar (I use fetchmail to put that in an imap<br>
server. so that's how this is related to linux...). Their host that relays<br>
email for my account gets on the CBL at spamhaus. So, people who send me<br>
email get an email back that seems to be saying that I am a spammer. This<br>
is a disaster.<br>
<br>
The registrar tech support people that I talked to said that they won't<br>
move my MX record to a different host and that there is nothing that they<br>
can do.<br>
<br>
If I understand correctly, the host that relays email to my ISP could use<br>
a spam detection service, for example spamhaus, on email that they relay,<br>
and take preventative measures.<br>
<br>
Do you know how I can find a domain name registrar that doesn't get it's<br>
servers on spam lists frequently? Aside from asking each one and hoping to<br>
be understood.<br>
