Still can't send mail to some domains despite being no longer blacklisted.... eggedd2k 08-29-2008

We had a blacklisting issue yesterday - one of our workstations
managed to get a mass mailing trojan which resulting in us being
blacklisted on a number of internet blacklists.

We've since taken the offending workstation offline and have now been
taken off of the blacklists we were on (we checked using mxtoolbox).


Unfortunately we're still getting some emails bounced back stating
that we're blacklisted (although not detailing the actual blacklist).

As far as we're aware we're not on any blacklists now.

Is it simply a case of having to wait a few days for the recipients
email servers to update their blacklists?

thanks in advance!

Some people operate local blacklists under guidelines similar to what
some said Curtis LeMay taught, to whit: "To err is human. To forgive
is not Strategic Air Command Policy."

I can't be bothered with maintaining lists for the fun of if. Stuff
goes in to protect, comes out when somebody being protected complains.

AFAIK Microsoft is fetching our zones just once per day and Tiscali is
rsyncing every 12 hours.
Were you listed at UCEPROTECT by yesterday?
