How To Search If An IP Is Blacklisted In My Server
Apr 10, 2009
I'm having a problem with a client (X) which doesn't receive emails from one of his clients(Y). After few days of talking with Y hosting company I wasn't able to solve the broblem, but told from them to check if their IP is blocked in my server (which I'm sure it isn't).
My first question is where to check for blacklisted IP which blocks email, and not HTTP request ...
Is there a different place than /etc/apf/deny_hosts.rules .. is there a file in exim configuration ?
I have a linux server with WHM 11.24.2.
----
The error that Y client receives when sending mail to X is:
Server Response: '550 5.0.0 <mail@mail.com>... User unknown', Port:
25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 550, Error Number: 0x800CCC79
I'm very sure that if Y's IP was blocked he shouldn't receive that error.
What I belive is that there are some DNS problems, because X client was hosted on the same company as Y, now few years ago, and I belive that when moving X to my server, the other hosting company didn't deleted all DNS records .. and that's why Y clients get the error user unknown. Is it correct what I'm suppose ?

I ordered a server on Sagonet, a company specializing in renting dedicated servers. Well, after paying 125 euros, I receive a server with dns almost totally blacklisted in my country, Italy. I ask those of Sagonet of risolvermi the problem but they are slow and rude and say that I hosted illegal content on my server. Too bad that my server has only a forum half-empty and no illegal content and they want from me other $60 for control my sites, blackmailing me. So I paid for a service, without being able to take advantage and they . Be careful to Sagonet, a disservice, because people rude and incompetent.

My server seems to be caught under this listing, even though my IP address is not meantioned anywhere in the listing (nor have i been sending out any spam) The blacklist if of a netblock of 4096 ip address in which 2 of which belong to my server.

My question is really what do i do now?
Should I contact my provider or do I have to contact the spamhaus directly?

One of our customers has reporting not being able to access any sites hosted on our server. He is using a cable connection with a static IP number . He is able to access all other web sites on the Internet, he just can't access the ones hosted on our network.
Do you have any ideas on why this could be occuring, or if there is something on the server which could have blacklisted his static IP, preventing him access.

so about 2 months ago we started a search for a new hosting company who could provide us with our dedicated server needs after our last company let us down badly..
We looked at alot of options as cost per month was not our main concern.
Our criteria were as follows:
1) 24/7 technical support by PHONE (or at LEAST within UK business hours.)
2) Cpanel usage provided (Rather than some generic "bespoke" software)
3) Dedicated, fully managed, Linux Server availability
4) UK based
That was it.
It sounded simple on the face of it, but after tearing alot of hair out we came up slightly short of those four simple requirements. It almost seemed impossible to get everything we wanted.
In the end we chose UK2. They could provide everything except the support, which would be via a ticket system. BUT we were told by a few people who have used them in the past it was quick and very good, so we decided to take the gamble..
They ARE UK based, They DO use Cpanel AND provided the server we wanted (Linux) so that should be it we thought, not exactly what we wanted but close enough, search over?
How wrong we seem to have been..
After two months of issues with UK2 mostly revolving around our server (and therefore sites) going down randomly, Email servers NEVER working as they should. DNS not setup correctly and ftp accounts refusing connection due to server reboots and the settings not being input correctly at their end to reset after a reboot.. etc etc etc we have had to submit support tickets on a weekly basis and almost give up the dream of a server which will just... well, work!
(And at this point I would like to point out we DO pay for the full "Supreme Support" package on a monthly basis, effectively providing a fully managed server and support to go with it.)
So again, we find ourselves on the hunt for a company who can satisfy our rather basic and what I would imagine, standard requirements..
Only again we come up slightly short..
Can ANYONE here help prove that our goal is not impossible with the above requirements and shed light on any options which we should consider?
At this point, as we said earlier, monthly cost is not a concern. A reliable server which meets our criteria is most definately worth whatever it is going to cost..
At least we wont be loosing sales due to downtime, wasting time on tickets and missing emails!

One of the sites I have, is placed on a non-Apache server (the others are). Phpinfo() gives this:
Server API CGI
I'd like to make search engine-friendly URLs for all my sites. All of them will do fine with mod_rewrite, but that's not possible on this server, it seems. Anybody here knows how I can do this for this particular server?

We will shortly moving from our Shared to Dedicated hosting (First time). The main reason being the outgoing mails..
We need to send around 60k emails to our members/week (newsletter).
Our hosting company allowed only 200 mails per hour.. thus getting sick of this .. we decided to get our own server.
Now i have read many threads saying that they get blacklisted and their account being suspended..
How do i ensure that i don't land up being BLACKLISTED?

I found out today hostgator.com is black listed and so is the ip they have given me for my domain. I have allways been a happy hostgator.com customer but when your domain is blacklisted because of your hosting company thats not good. It also prevents some people from being able to send you e-mail.
When I talked with HG support today they suggested a dedicated IP but no promises. So thats not a positive indicator as well.
I have the baby croc plan with them and would like something simular with another hosting company that I can be for sure is not on a black list. I have had no compliants with them over last 2 years I have used them but this is something that will make me leave them if there is nothing they can do to solve it which appears to be the case after speaking with HGs support.

Searching G, I find these for running checks on blacklisted ips:
http://whatismyipaddress.com/staticp...ss-blacklisted
http://www.mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx
Which both seem to be for blacklisted email servers. But what about checking if the ip has been blacklisted for other reasons ( business practices, reports of complaint, adult sites, etc)
What is a decent check?
This is for checking on newly assigned dedicated ip's ( or other) before applying them to domains on a new account.

we got a server blacklisted because there was a script sending spam emails, ofcourse we got that removed and taken more measures, the problem is that many lists still have our ips blacklisted (4 days after the solution was given).
is there some kind of script or any service/website that can check my server's ips for being in any spam list and notify me everyday ?

We have a few customers who have multiple C classes with us and we are wondering how most of you monitor for blacklisting.
We currently randomly pick a few IPS and check them once a month but this is not very thorough. We were wondering if there is a program out there that can check say a /20 automatically once a month or atleast something we can initiate an automated check once a month with?

We are starting to send our newsletter out to people who subscribe to it. We are using the same server our website is on, so we have the same ip address. We don't spam or anything like that, but what if someone wants to report you. Do you get blacklisted right away or does it take multiple reportings? Does it mess up your search engine ranking?

I've had problem with the VPS getting blacklisted alot lately.
Anyway, I think the problems resolved now and we've not been blacklisted for over 2 days, yet there still seems to be alot of e-mail servers rejecting mails from the server due to blacklisting.

I have contacted hotmail asking why automated emails such as registration verification are being blocked and they said that my server's IP was on a blacklist for spam. I never spam and I do not think a bot has phished using my server's IP. Anyway, if I were to switch server IPs would that solve the problem?

This is in regard to ongoing stress I've had over this server from DN...
Keep in mind this is a NEW server order; my first with this company.
I was assigned IPs that appear to be on multiple spam block lists. The "biggest" problems are mail being dumped to bulk by yahoo and dumped to bulk or completely black holed by hotmail. It was also blocked by comcast, mail.ru, and anyone who uses SORBS (those are the only ones I KNOW about so far). This helps reinforce the suspicion that bulk mail was being delivered from the IPs at some point.
I Contacted support at 9PM on the 13th and was referred to abuse. Only after complaining again on the 17th, was I told they requested removal from ONE of the blacklists and they would "look into" the others. I replied saying I wanted new IPs or I would request a refund and that I did not feel the service I recently purchased was actually delivered.
Now here is the part that is giving me the feeling this will not end well for me; I no longer see the abuse department ticket when I log into their ticket system.
What If I ordered the server to use as a mail server? Am I out of line for finding a new server unable to deliver mail to the hotmail/yahoo inbox unacceptable?
Telling my customers to wait and maybe someday their mail will be delivered to the major free mail services is not the kind of reputation I want to have. Its feels like I was sold a problem someone else created and am expected to wait an unspecified amount of time to see if it can be resolved. I do not feel its fair to be left hanging while waiting for white listing attempts on IPs I did not soil in the first place.
I really hate bulk mailers and spammers. : /

Scenario:
Client has a nice website with a "contact us" online form. The form itself is secure (no injection attacks etc) and simply collects some data from the site-user, and emails that data to the site owners email address.
This email is sent using php "FROM" the siteusers email address (eg: random@gmail.com etc), so that when it arrives with the site owner, they can simply hit reply etc.
However - the site owners email is protected by "FrontBridge" (aka Microsoft), and suddenly they stop receiving such form-mail.
Response from FrontBridge is
"If the IP that is sending these emails does not have the domain names that it is sending on behalf of registered to it, it can not send to our domain as it will be picked up and flagged as spam. " They then indicate that too much of this so called "spam" will result in a blacklisting - which is what seems to have now happenned.
Pretty unfair I'd have thought, and probably how MOST web based form2email scripts are setup.

After upgrading to Plesk 12, I switched on email sending limit to 50 emails per hour per account and also changed mail config to start using domain names in SMTP and less than 12 hours later became blacklisted by CBL - hotmail and live rely on this blacklist - ; the argument was we were sending bots and malware. This server has been under ASL since over a year now and we are positive its clean; still we did a full scan and nothing came up and none of the mail accounts were even close to sending 50 emails per hour. Being sure we were not sending spam nor malware contacted CBL and got whitelisted ..... for less than 24 hours. This happened three days in a row until we switched back to the previous mail settings where domains are not used in SMTP greeting and since then, we haven't had any trouble with CBL. how can we prevent being blacklisted while using domain names in SMTP greetings?

Me and my friend have purchased Web Hosting and we can get in through FTP Clients like Filezilla or WinSCP but we'd like to integrate it directly into the Windows File System, so that we can search through files.
We basically want to be able to share and collaborate work together

We have a mail account that has over 12,000 emails in it, when we try to search it will either bring back no results or time out. My question is how can i search for an email in the account or is there anything i can install on my Linux - CENTOS 5.3 i686- cPanel 11.24.4-S36281 - WHM 11.24.2 - X 3.9 server?
I will need to search the subject or body of the emails and need it to return results back to me when it has anything matching what i want it to search for. We have tried using the email clients that cPanel provides but like i said they either bring no results or show an error. What can we use or install to do what we need? I have full shell access if theres a way of doing it through that.

I'm sure you hear this often, but I'm on the search for a new hosting company. Earlier this year my products site switched to a db driven website with a forum. When I made the site change I had to change my hosting company I had for 3 years. Under suggestion for the webmaster I switched to midphase. When I did things started out good. Than came the down time. Each time they said I had to may users on the db. I started out at $10 a month. After several plan upgrades I'm at a $80 a month vps. I would be ok with the $80, but more times than not the site is sluggish even when the resources are not 1/3 of their capacities. After reading some of the threads on this site it seems a vps is not that good? The idea behind the vps sounded good to me. But I'm wondering if I should go back to a shared host. On a good day there may be about 30 people on the forum and about 30 people surfing the products.

I have a hardware firewall on my server that does not allow pinging or trace routes from anyone outside the vpn.
So, pinging my server or a website on it will return a "request time out" for each try even though the websites come up fine and connectivity is fine.
I'm told this is for enhanced security but it's also my understanding that search engines and some programs will ping a site before attempting to crawl it or index a page on it. I guess this saves time and bandwidth for the search engine bot.
Is this true? and is there a security risk for opening my firewall to allow pinging?

And was having trouble finding some rails. I've tried google and such and haven't found rails built for this machine. I am building budget servers so I would like to find the cheapest rails possible.
